Posted on August 17, 2018 by Fred Meyer

Want to win a Kokomo Toys exclusive Vitruvian HACK Atelis Warrior Altered Amazon figure? Read on and find out how you could one or two of your very own!

It’s no secret that the Boss Fight Studio Vitruvian HACKS line has taken the 1:18 action figure community by storm. It’s also no secret that Kokomo Toys is one of THE best sources for quality vintage and modern action figures out there. When these two giants partnered together to produce the Atelis Warrior Altered Amazon figure– the result was PURE WIN!

Thanks to Kokomo Toys, JBL has THREE of these deadly warriors to give away! However, we’re not going to give them away all at once! Here’s how to win one or two of your very own starting on Saturday, August 17th: All you need to do is snap an original image and post it on one of the social media channels listed below! The catch? It’s an image that would be improved by the inclusion of an Atelis Warrior!

Facebook Giveaway: Two sealed Atelis Warriors

Facebook is currently the world’s largest social media platform so we’re giving away not one but TWO of the Atelis Warriors over the JBL Facebook page! Simply find the contest announcement post and reply with an original action figure image that you think NEEDS to include two Atelis Warriors. In your entry, tell us if you’re using another figure as a stand-in and describe how you’d use the Atelis Warrior to improve the shot! Entries need not be limited to a Greek setting! Feel free to let your creativity run wild be it with Indiana Jones, Marauder Task Force, Jurassic Park, etc. The image just has to be posted from your profile in the contest post discussion before the deadline listed at the bottom of this article!

Instagram Giveaway: One sealed Atelis Warrior

Instagram is a perfect place to show off your amazing action figure photos! Now just imagine how much more awesome those photos would be with an Atelis Warrior showcased front and center! To be eligible to win one of these figures, simply shoot and post a photo on Instagram that would be made that much more exciting if it included an altered Amazon warrior! Post your pic, tell us how the Atelis Warrior would make the shot better (and which figure is standing in for the serpentine warrior), and tag @joebattlelines in the description as well as use the hashtag #JBLHacks. That’s it!

The deadline to submit your entries on BOTH platforms is 11:59pm CST on August 25, 2018! JBL staff will peruse through the entries following the deadline. We’ll announce the winners of each giveaway both here and on our social media channels on Tuesday August 28, 2018.

Boss Fight Studio Kickstarter is LIVE!

Posted on June 3, 2014 by Fred Meyer

It’s finally here– the Boss Fight Studio Kickstarter for their Vitruvian HACKS figure series is now live!

Unless you’ve been hiding in a cave in Cobra-La for the past few years you’re probably familiar with the work of Boss Fight Studio. This talented group of former Hasbro employees has worked on lines from Marvel Legends to G.I. Joe to the annual G.I. Joe Collector’s Convention sets. (Remember Nocturnal Fire and the Zombie Initiative? Yeah, it’s THOSE guys!)

Now this insanely talented group has decided to take their skills to the next level and branch out with their own proprietary figure line. Dubbed the Vitruvian HACKS (Highly Articulated Character Kit System), this series promises insane articulation on both male and female bodies in the 1:18 scale translated into a variety of classic themes. That’s right– mythology, fantasy, and science fiction– they’re all on the table with the HACKS system.

So, what can you do to help? How can you obtain some of these fantastic figures? This is where the Boss Fight Studio Kickstarter comes in!

In less than 24 hours and with 38 days to go, the crew has already raised just shy of $28,000 of their $75,000 goal. Your support of this project via Kickstarter can ensure two things: the project’s success and your own ability to obtain some truly awesome figures at launch! Plus, with their stretch goals, the rewards for supporting the Vitruvian HACKS only get better with the more funds that are raised. Plus, this is a Kickstarter supported project which means that your funds are secure.

So, what are you waiting for– an engraved invitation from the Boss Fight Crew? Hit the link below, show your support and tell your friends! Remember, the deadline to pledge is Friday July 11, 2014 @ 9:52pm PDT!
