------------------------------------
Of course the first thing that strikes you is that 7 out of 8 polls won starwars themed items.
To keep things both fair and keep things interesting on my part, a couple of these will be switched to the runner ups that are non-starwars themed.
For example, the 1:1 speederbike and Heavy mando armor was already in the works, it didn't need a poll really, so for those two I can swap them out with something non starwars. Other models like B.O.B and vincent are also in the works so we also have the luxury of swapping some of those out.
Can we do these in a month? yes a full month, but the idea is to get as many done before the polls open again at the start of next month.
There is also one hindering issue... It's the little extra things people add on to the top of the polls requests that sorta put it behind.
Jabbas gatekeeper for example - that at first was simple, now people want it to be animated, which then knocks it up the list on the complexity involved. The Ghost VCX-1 - everyone wanted it, but for some just the model isn't good enough and they want the escape pods/ships with it aswell,, oh and a cockpit too.
Of course I ultimately decide whether these extras get done but if enough people are asking for it, they will generally be added (within reason. )
(i.e if someone wants to go and research how the team that made jabbas gatekeeper, actually animated it and then propose how we cull all that work and manpower down into a standalone prop - im all ears)
The requests need to stay within the realms of realism for the time they are expected to be made. Anything possible but at the end of the day I do have to be a little ruthless and bop a few requests on the head so to speak. So I guess for the next set of polls, my advice is keep it concise and be more mindful of the models you really really want.
The next set of polls will not allow a certain theme to dominate and the format will be changed and made more concise so we don't repeat this months result of all starwars starwars starwars.

Cool. Wish there were more non star wars models, but whatever you make rocks.

im totally happy with anything you do to be honest Geoff, yes i do Armour n props but im always blown away and have a giggle when you release something pretty left field. Like the flight of the navigator, unexpected but class. When you compare the cost i pay per month against what i receive in return, THIS IS JUST THE BEST.
