Chicken Fried Toys Dime Novel Legends 1:18th Action Figures

Created by Chicken Fried Toys, LLC

Welcome to the Backerkit for the the Dime Novel Legends, presented by Chicken Fried Toys. Working with Boss Fight Studio (control art/tampos/consulting) and Smalljoes.com (distribution), these 3.75 to 4 inch action figures are a "little" slice of the Old West. Our figures are fully articulated modern style versions of Iconic Western Heroes and Legends. Each figure features at minimum 17 points of articulation, with removable coats, vest, belts, weapons and hats! These characters are compatible and play alongside with many modern action figure lines such as Boss Fight Studio's own Vitruvian H.A.C.K.S., Star Wars, G.I. Joe, Marauder Task Force, Zombie Lab, Animal Warriors of the Kingdom and more! The lineup is slated to have 11 characters in it's initial offering. Look for more information on our Facebook page as we develop new and exciting offerings for series 1.5 and series 2! Yee-Haw!

Definitive "Gimme' Two Steps" Pledge level items and pics
over 9 years ago – Sat, Nov 12, 2016 at 12:20:06 AM

For those who keep missing confirmation, this is the  complete set of reward items that will be guaranteed with the "Gimme' Two Steps" pledge after the changes I posted originally on the 30th of last month. You will also get a bonus second copy of the items marked with the red "X2" as a thank you for the terrific response over the last 24 hours in upgrades to this level.

Going forward, a single copy of each Boot Hill Loot accs & gear set will be added once unlocked (other than the already guaranteed items), and two copies of each carded character figure (other than the already guaranteed items) will also be added. There most likely will be singles that you will be able to add in Backerkit when this is done, but I can't 100% guarantee this until the money is totaled tomorrow night.

IF (big if) there are any extras we can make available for single purchase, backers at the "Gimme' Two Step" level and the "All-IN!" level will be able to add them at $25 each. The current rules still apply to the Badlands Vigilante and KP Trooper right now, but we are very close to unlocking the BV for everyone, and I fully expect that to happen. These basics upgrades also apply to the "Gimme' My Mug!" and "Look Ma!" levels as well in the respective numbers (both of these two levels receive the same items at the  "All-IN!" level).  Again, this is all dependent on where the money ends tomorrow evening.

 

Thank you guys!  @CFT

In lieu of birthday wishes, I demand Kickstarter pledges. Commence now. :)

Seriously, just wanted to add that I'm about to step out for the evening and celebrate over dinner. Let the questions pile up, and I'll get to them as soon as I can late tonight.

Another custom DNL idea!

I apologize for the poor quality of this composite, but David​ was unavailable, and I wanted to put this up tonight. As a long time fan of Westerns on TV you may have been familiar with the late Hugh O'Brien's portrayal of Wyatt Earp. Catrina​ was kind enough to do a rush mock up for you guys of a potential custom build using our parts to honor him. He was going to have striped pants, but we just couldn't get it done right now. He just passed about a week ago, and for many was the definitive version of this Legend of the West. I hope you guys like it.

  • Sorry for the hatchet job coloring the vest above.  I got in a rush and didn't realize it was the wrong color.  My fault.
  • KS campaign ends Saturday night at 8PM Central time.  May do a live broadcast curing the last 15 minutes.  Will announce tomorrow. 

Digital Details...cranium style.

Here are digital screen caps of the last two portraits we'll be using in series 1.  For those figures that are not unlocked in the KS, we are still planning to have them made as soon as possible, and that will most likely take place as a pre-order once paint samples start to make their way back to us from China.  Keep an eye open for more details as we move through the early phases of production. 

  • Trail Boss Final Render:
  • Vaquero Final Render:

 

Thanks!  -CFT

Digital Details...uh, I lose count.
