Quote:
Spero Studios was founded by Jason Bienvenu and Brandon Gary, inspired by the 4 inch toy lines of the mid 70's, 80's and 90's, Spero focuses on bringing back the fun and joy from these eras with high quality products featuring modern articulation and accessories!

Our first offering is inspired by The Kingdom Comic book featuring the animal warriors from the first story arc.

Series one features the main Protagonist "Pale" and his Clear "Spectral" variant as well as 4 army builder characters to fill out the ranks of your ape armies! Each figure stands a little over 4 inches tall; features 18 points of articulation as well as weapons and accessories.

Kickstarter goes Live June 1st!

Yes. I'll change the title once it goes live.

Sweetness.

Jason let me see the commercial he and Brandon did, and it's very fun. Brandon did a great job doing the voiceover, and probably had a blast at it.

Dang, I forgot to post it here too. I suck.

Jason submitted the final version of the KS campaign page to them for approval last Friday, but he says there's a backlog from the 3day weekend and it may not get to go live today as originally planned, so keep your fingers and opposable toes crossed!

Jason and I are going to throw a FAQ together tomorrow night. Y'all got any questions needing answers?

Will there be females at some point?

How are they determining scale between the animal species?

Will there be any possible new weapon packs unlocks as new figure unlocks become available?

There are indeed female characters in the comic, so figures will come eventually. Series 3 or 4, at a guess.

There are a wide range of sizes in the comic, but most are the size of the Apes shown here. Jason has a big gorilla/bear/bison buck planned, as well as a shorter raccoon/lemur buck, plus a rat character planned as a noticulated pack-in with a future edition of Pale.

And there are indeed additional weapon packs planned, in new colors and shield decos, with a few new weapons being swapped in. At least I think that last point is true. I know he's got new weapons designed, but I'm not sure if he plans a whole new set or to use them as swaps.

WOW! - $10,298 in less than 24 hours! We really can't thank you enough for the amazing amount of love and support!

First off, we’d like to let our Canadian brothers and sisters know that the shipping cost for the ALL IN reward level has been added for shipping to Canada!

Next, we have added a COMIC SHOP reward level for local comic shops and hobby stores to order multiple copies of The Kingdom trade paperback.

Also, we have received messages saying that they will back in the next few days or weeks. Don’t forget that you won’t be charged until the campaign ends and the faster we reach the initial goal the quicker we’ll start unlocking the next set of figures. That’s right! A whole new body sculpt making at least 4 other figures! Look forward to additional figure reveals about the smaller ape body type and even more Weapon Sets and Alternate Head Packs!

Lastly, we are working on an FAQ section and should have that up in the next 24 hours. Thanks again for being a part of this project. Our mission is spreading joy and fun and we ask that you help us by spreading the word to anyone you think would be interested in our project.

Remember to check back throughout the campaign for more exciting reveals! Brandon

Chunarian Guardsman Card Art

The figures will be packaged in fun, collector-friendly bubble backs. Meaning you can take the figures out of the package and then place them back in the bubble without damaging the card art!


Being a professional graphic designer and illustrator before going into toy design means that I was very eager to make our packaging not only fun and relevant but also distinct on the toy aisles and collectors walls, all while retaining a classic 3 3/4 card back look and feel!

- Jason
