Yeah the color is a problem for the crowdfund. I want black, red, gray, or blue way more than green.
That is for sure true. If I knew definitively that a red or black version of that dragon were coming down the line I'd wait anyway. I'm not buying multiples - too big, too pricey - and I would way rather have a black dragon... or a red one... in my collection than any other color.
I admire their ambition, sincerely, this is a historically cool project, but I just asked myself: would I be happy with/buy a dragon like, 2x the size of the moose and be happy at a pretty high price point and I honestly would, and if they staggered the releases, they might get me for a new color dragon every 18 months or two years for a long time. I hope like they've done with ogres and brutes they have plans for scaling down in the future cos they'd definitely get my money for a dragon I could display easier.
I prefer a red dragon to a green. Based on how easily this funds, I'm sure they want to make other color versions of it. Reuse is the name of game with this line. Even if this dragon barely funds, I assume they'll try another one. Certainly, a red dragon would get more backers. I think other colors would do as well as a green dragon. If and when they make other dragons, I hope they at least give them a different head sculpt.

They didn't do it for the 8" dragons.... but sure... maybe for $500 dragons they'll do some extra work 😉
How do they release something as simple as a barbarian build with alternate hair and tempt me so? He's just a ML He-man or Conan. Dang it.
I want that Barbarian very much.
That beardless head gives He-Man, Wun-Dar, and Conan depending on the hair color used. It is nicer than their previous He-Man analog they released, thats for sure.
Those similarities are for sure intentional. That's why I want it.
I think that dragon will fund, easily. I suppose shipping and whatever tax-of-the-week is in effect could hurt sales, but I expect a lot of the diehards to come through plus a few casuals.
That barbarian is looking mighty slick. I could be in for two, maybe more.
