You're right; if you can't or won't do the kit work until you have a boatload of preorders, that's not something I want to support or take a risk on. A manufacturer that's not willing to put their own money up to bring the product to market says something to me, something I don't like. I'm not an investor financing 'risky ventures'; I'm a customer looking to buy a product.

I just wanted to say that my Nike-Hercules kit arrived from Boyce today and it is BEAUTIFUL. Alex kept the 40 of us up to date throughout the entire process, sent pictures of printed parts, and even announced that the final kits would be shipping more quickly than originally promised (not never, not later, but SOONER and FASTER). This was not my first order from Boyce and I will say that I have always been 100% satisfied every time. The Nike-Herc is no exception.
