    Yep here they come...
     
    Gamester81 is a male bimbo. He's a likable guy but he doesn't seem very intelligent to me. He kinda just stands there with his box of stuff and goes "yup, that's cool." He’s a total bimbo. He went to the biggest party school ever, seriously google it, it churns out mediocre porn workers like a sausage factory and his YouTube show is basically 1st grade show and tell.
     
    Classic gaming has too many clueless male bimbos (not you guys!) in power roles. ALL of these bad situations in classic gaming are because of this!!! They prance around YouTube with their hats on backwards and end up in charge of things that they're totally unqualified to be doing. Passion project or not. When they try to milk their popularity for money, they get in over their heads and people get burned. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. Whenever there's a new "retro" console/module/ pie in the sky something that doesn't live up to the hype, you can always bet there’s a stumblebum male bimbo there with his hand out asking for your money and not getting the job done. These guys are absolutely clueless.
     
    The bimbo part comes in when they think they can lie to us, manipulate us, deceive us and play us for fools like we can't see EXACTLY what they've done. They rely on the "good ‘ol boy" network of ditzy male bimbos to support them and to attack people as a hater or a mob if you have the balls to ask them to just clear this up. This is absolutely outrageous and everyone attached to this from Gamester81 to Mike Kennedy had better get real transparent real fast before they're hit with serious lawsuits from every side. Coleco holdings already has reason to believe they're in breach of contract. People go to jail for stuff like this!
     
    It's not just Mike Kennedy pushing this circus show, it's Gamester81 and every other ditzy male bimbo who let this get as far as it did. These guys are totally incompetent and nobody seems to be talking about mass support of mass incompetence as a problem. These guys F--ed their way into this mess and they'll try to F-- their way out.

    I try to support any retro gaming magazine/fanzine/website etc....
    which all started when Arine katz reviewed fanzines in mags like egm or vg&ce.
    and when I did my fanzine I continued what he started by reviewing other zines I got.
    I'm hoping to relaunch my zine again but haven't had people interested in writing

    Can't forsee them getting much of any support now that they've deceived and lost the trust of anyone and everyone. Such a shame too, considering the free press of gaming sites they were given and the amount of people that were actually interested in something like this to materialize. Those poor Jaguar molds.... such a shame I don't have the money or means of obtaining them.

    To their credit, delaying the Kickstarter until it's ready is better than trying to launch it when it's not. Probably the wisest move at this point if they had that choice. Anything less is digging a deeper hole.
     
    Our friends at Warpo Toys launched a successful Kickstarter with their Legends of Cthulhu action figure line in 2014. Needless to say it was an awesome project with an authentic team. They were successful in part because they kept the wraps on things until they were ready to go. Hardly anyone knew about the project until Warpo had all of their pre-production Cthulhu figures, artwork, packaging, sizzle video and website complete. Only then did their project become known to the public.
     
    This in my opinion has been the Coleco Chameleon's biggest misstep. Most all upstarts have major challenges to overcome, but they do so while working quietly in the garage where it's okay to make mistakes, not in the public eye after they've already set expectations and set their own deadlines. The public has been focusing attention on this project since the idea first popped into Mike Kennedy's head. Mike could have quietly purchased the Jaguar tooling and sold Jaguar shells without any mention of a new retro console until they were ready to go with a pre-production prototype that would wow the world. This would've enabled them to manage expectations and garner positive press and public sentiment.

    I kind of suspected that they pull the product after toy fair to work on a far better proto then what they did at toy fair.
    I will support them but prob not buy the system
