Can we keep this all in the Blood and Plunder thread below?  It's 6+ pages and has been the key point of discussion on it.

I totally get that concern. We saw this problem repeatedly in other kickstarters we looked into. We planned for the worst (read best :)) Production starts next week and we have some quality sources for external production if need be.  With our combined resources we can pump out 15,000 minis and 300 ships per week if we had to based on our trial runs.

To give you a bit more peace of mind, Our CEO Alex Aguila was one of the founders of Alienware. He ran production there and dealt with all sorts of obstacles and has the experience to overcome any that we may encounter. :)
