I hope that the statement, "the items will be shipped with the Alus Edition UHD Blu-rays" means that the discs are coming soon.  This has been dragging on for a while now.  I know there was some extra stuff going on, but these were originally promised by last December.

Wow $30 for an acrylic stand…

I’ll probably just go for the patch.

I couldnt tell from the latest update how big the standee will be.   Had to go back and look it up.  Originally he was proposing 2 options a 1/10 scale at $20 or a 1/6 scale at $30 plus shipping.  He mentions on the latest update that the standee is $30 including shipping.  So, I wonder will the standee be 1/10 ($20+$10 shipping)?  Or, is he giving us a break and it will be 1/6 at $30 shipped?

 

Edit: I asked the question on Kickstarter. The standee will be 1/10 scale at around 6.5"

Welcome to Kickstarter. The only way to sell something if you have absolute contempt for your customers. 

(Here's a good explanation of why I say that. It doesn't even touch on the standard multi-year delays.)

Update # 36.

Lookin' good.

The artbook promises to be a bit of a doorstopper.  It's 60% bigger than planned, up to 240 pages from 150.

Why is Mikimoto-san drawing Ishtar a child's face now?

Pretty sure he's just drawing her in his more modern style.

IMO, it doesn't look that far off how she actually appears in the animation:

Yeah, I really don't notice a difference here either.

I hope that there are lots of mecha designs in the book.
