Coming to Kickstarter – Q the Darkstar Hunter
Visit Flickr!
Paul Harmon (blog) contacted me earlier this week asking if I would take a look at the concept art and photos of the prototype for his upcoming vinyl toy, Q the Darkstar Hunter. I of course said yes, and as soon as I saw the design I knew I had to share it with you guys. Very nice work!
Paul says the figure is about 7-inches tall and articulated and the plan is to run a Kickstarter project as soon as all of the manufacturing costs are worked out. He also plans to release the toy in three colorways, but for now all we can do is look at the twenty photos in this Flickr set.
Keep an eye on Paul’s blog for an announcement when the toy goes on Kickstarter.

This looks fantastic! Like a modern take on Micronauts. Can’t wait for it to get posted to Kickstarter!
On a side note (and as a dog lover) I nearly fainted when I saw the name of his blog! 😉 Lot’s of great comic and concept art there though.
Thanks Jay,
Microman was def one of the major influences, don’t worry no dogs were ever harmed, picked up the name from an old Shaw Bros film
@Paul – Any idea yet what the cost will be to get one figure through Kickstarter?
I have some very rough idea, it will be in keeping with the typical range of vinyl figures which I think shouldn’t be too bad considering how much stuff comes with the figure. I want the price as low as possible so more people can get it. But I would say its most likely to be around 100-110 for everything if it can work out without eating into the production costs I’d love to offer the figure with just the helmet as a very basic level for a lot cheaper.
