Lighted Pony Project (back it!)

Even if you aren't invested in this Kickstarter or maybe you think the price is high (it's not, really), do us all a solid and share it on Twitter or your social platform of choice. Here, feel free to retweet my post if you're feeling like you need a shortcut. Thanks!

What if most of my Twitter followers are bots?

Just over 5k in the next 4 days seems a bit out of reach, unfortunately :/

@supared what's your plan moving forward considering you've already placed orders and purchased some parts necessary for this project, should it not reach it's funding goal?

I'm still fully behind this so let me know and I'll be sure to continue to track/support your progress where I can!

Good question. It's been a busy week, so my apologies I haven't been up on the boards regularly. I'll be traveling most of the day tomorrow, and I'll fully gather my thoughts on this as we round 3rd base. I think it is still too soon to call it, but of course there is a plan B. I am thinking about giving all of the backers a way to follow my progress, to be determined. The Kickstarter shows me I will not lose on an investment, especially if I can pull the costs down a little by doing more myself and/or creatively. Also, more people would have backed if it weren't for some negative prior experiences with Kickstarter or concerns about installation.
So, I will still move forward and still pursue licensing with Ford.

Thanks again to everyone that has been behind the project! We'll still make this happen, and I have some great ideas to really make our Mach-Es stand out after this as well!

Sorry if I missed this somewhere. Is the pony going to have the same texture as the original?

Same look and feel with a lighted edge

At 96 backers and 80% there. Need 21 more in the next 2 days and change.

If you've been on the fence, time to jump in!!!

Bumping this up. This is community-led effort that scores you something that you won't find elsewhere for your non-gt. The price is reasonable considering the development and prototyping costs, not to mention the time of one of our own community members.

In other words...

?

Great idea, I’ve backed it hope it makes it.

 

[MurphyDog]

Just backed the project.

Need 20 more people by midnight tomorrow. Come on folks!

37 Hours people! Less than $4k! We are CLOSE!

PS. I am i the only person who thinks tiered pricing hurts fundraising? Early backers love the project and will pay probably the highest, yet they get the lowest price and leaves everyone else salty they are paying more. It's human nature to be pissed you could have got it for $50 less if you were a week earlier and IMO prevents more people from joining.

So the fence-sitters should get a better reward than those that stepped up early? Sorry, that doesn't make much sense to me.

Yeah if you have no issues funding the project I agree but with a project like this where the fence sitters are going to make or break the project, having such a large increase in price is going to discourage people and if we dont fund the project we are all SOL.

I'm not saying they should get a better reward at all, I'm saying have the price tiers closer together until the goal is met and then you can do the big jump in price.
