these are all the characters that have been unlocked so far. im ripping this right from the kickstarter page and pasting it here:

KICKOFF BONUS FIGURE (FREE UNLOCK!):

honestly, it's not consistent how he's being released. there's free with all in, but not with the two wave tier or single purchase.

WAVE 1
Breacher is an Urban Intervention Specialist, complete with his K9 Falcon. Mark Pennington will be leading design for this figure, with Kirk Bozigian reviewing. This concept is courtesy of Gabriel Mangum.


Cadavers are Silent Infiltrators. Mark Pennington will be leading design for this figure, with Kirk Bozigian reviewing. This concept is courtesy of Chad "Malcham" LaForce


Damselfly is an Enemy Aerial Assault Trooper. Ron Rudat will be leading design for this figure, with Kirk Bozigian reviewing. This concept is courtesy of Ted Terranova.


Sol Eagle Guerrero is a Luchador Soldier. Ron Rudat will be leading design for this figure, with Kirk Bozigian reviewing. This concept is courtesy of David Emmanuelli Martinez


Los Castigadores are Enemy Executioners. Ron Rudat will be leading design for this figure, with Kirk Bozigian reviewing. This concept is courtesy of Chris Scott.


SHHHH is a Ninja with a prosthetic leg. Mark Pennington will be leading design for this figure, with Kirk Bozigian reviewing. This concept is courtesy of Alexander Murrell.


Bear Claw is a Survivalist. Ron Rudat will be leading design for this figure, with Kirk Bozigian reviewing. This concept is courtesy of Gabriel Wilkinson


Bear claw was just unlocked, but something happened and he may be locked up again. that's fine, it's super close to being unlocked again.

this is the next (last) figure meant to unlock for this wave, and once he's unlocked there's an announced figure coming along with it since it's also the funding goal's (480k) halfway point.

Clanker is a Wilderness Survival Specialist and his companion Tank is a genetically modified Galapagos Tortoise. Mark Pennington will be leading design for this figure, with Kirk Bozigian reviewing. This concept is courtesy of Robert “Bobby” Earl.


midway unlock announcement:
Midnight Ops Retelo is a Communications Specialist, complete with his carrier pigeon Homer. Ron Rudat completed design for this figure, with Kirk Bozigian reviewing. This concept is courtesy of R. Carson Mataxis. (Paint master underway, to be shown ASAP).

I'm surprised there's not much of a push here for this project.

Yeah. I don't get it.

I haven't used this account in 15 years, but i had to open it up just to get some discussion here about recall.

Is it not clear that some original RAH line's creative team is on this project taking submissions from fans and making figures the old hasbro way? Ron Rudat, H. Kirk Bozigian, and Mark Pennington, Doug Sharp? Some guy named Larry Hama is doing the filecards.

2021 and 2022 are very cool years to be an o-ring collector.

The Roboskull project had a very cool o-ring army builder that will prefectly fit my Crimson and Action force factions.

The Strike Force Alpha are really cool too. I keep adding figs on my original order

And the Longbow. How cool! They will easily find their way into my Gi Joe and Cobra collections.

And now... Operation: Recall. Figs designed by the fans for the fans. I'm all-in in this project.

Very cool, Midnight Retelo:




From Carson:

Midnight Ops Retelo is our MIDWAY BONUS FIGURE. To celebrate hitting half of our funding objectives at $240k, we will be unlocking this figure alongside Clanker and Tank! We'll go from 8/19 funded to 10/19 funded on that glorious day. Better yet, this figure will be included for FREE with every "ALL-IN pledge! (18 figures)."

We want to thank our all-in backers for being all-in on Operation: Recall. They will be receiving 19 carded figures for $21.84/each. All Army Builders and Pick 4/6/8 backers can also select Midnight Ops Retelo as part of their assortment. Every other backer will be able to add Midnight Ops Retelo to their order as an add-on. We want every backer that wants to own this figure to be able to own this figure.

We're working on the revised card art, Midnight Ops branding, and a paint master. We will provide updates on those as they become available.

In the meantime, please keep sharing the campaign with your friends and family, keep drawing, writing, recording, editing and sharing your talents with the Operation: Recall community!

Update from Carson:

We’ve made the decision to fund IP development for ALL 16 Wave 1 – Wave 4 figures! This is a $72,000 decision, and this illustrates our commitment to making this line a reality. This will cover design by Ron Rudat or Mark Pennington, art direction/markup by Kirk Bozigian, dossiers by Larry Hama, layouts by Ed Morrill, and painting by Doug Hart. This does NOT include later steps like figure sculpting, accessory 3D modeling and printing, figure duplication, paint master painting, cardback development, and more. This also does NOT mean all figures will be manufactured... YET! We will still need to raise our stated goals to unlock manufacturing. Some of these unlocks could happen down the road in the Backerkit, or during another campaign. This just means the creative team of Ron, Mark, Kirk and Larry will not stop until their work on all 16 Wave 1 – Wave 4 figures is complete!

Now that we are committed to creating the preproduction assets for Waves 1 - Wave 4, we've made all Wave 3 and Wave 4 characters' preproduction paperwork and package paintings available as pledge tiers! ALL preproduction purchases includes one ALL-IN figure pledge (19 figures with the bonus) worth $415. ALL proceeds go straight to the creative team to fund their continued development of additional figures.

Opportunities to own original preproduction paperwork and package paintings by the masters are extremely rare - don’t miss this one!
