If they had ever really truly loved Tony, they'd have their hardsuits by now. Disappointing really. Clearly, the only way to show that they are worthy of Tony is to send him more money.

So between this KS and the TA fiasco, how much money has Tony managed to walk away with, with no apparent comeback?

This might be useful to some of the KS backers at this point.

The scary thing is that, if he said he needed more money to pull the trigger, they would probably send it to him.

We calculated $100,000+...
25 to TA,
50 on the KS,
25 to the bloke that set up Tony with the money to launch DG, John... second name escapes...
Rent, taxes, wages, bills, the guy at the plastic company that made the Marines...

Did I miss anyone?

Ed Fortae? If I remember correctly, he was given a share of the company, which is Tony's way of not ractually paying.

And "Ken of York", i. e., the guy that casts the plastic containers. I don't know if Tony payed him all that he was truly owed.

Everyone that was stupid enough to give Tony any kickstarter money should read this.
http://venturebeat.com/2013/01/22/why-t ... was-right/

I'll copy the important part:-
"As far as the bankruptcy is concerned, my lawsuit was actually little more than a small claims lawsuit. If you file a real
lawsuit in Arizona you file that in superior court. I filed it in a court that is lower than that called the justice court, and
it’s not actually small claims court. For legal reasons, I didn’t file it in small claims. It has to do with the fact that I
wanted a declaration that we were not investors, we were buyers. You can’t do that in small claims court, so I filed it in justice court."

Some links:
http://justicecourts.maricopa.gov/Forms/index.aspx
http://www.jp.pima.gov/pages/smallclaim ... leCase.htm

All you backers reading this, it's time to stop playing the victim or making excuses for this useless little man.
See a lawyer, take legal action.
You will need to file a claim at a justice court, it doesn't cost much.
Along with the legal action of Torn Armour and "others" defiance will certainly be declared bankrupt.
Tony made John Morse CEO and John will be the one liable for the company anyway.
Tony was mindful enough to register the company in Wyoming remember?

Although it's doubtful you'll get your money back - Tony has probably spent it all.

A real crook would break into your house.
Tony took money off you people for some toy soldiers with kickstarter helping themselves to your wallet in the process.
All legal and above board it seems - but it's still theft in my eyes.
With shitbags like Tony involved and kickstarters hand washing attitude to such dodgy projects, crowdfunding doesn't look so
"awesomesauce" now does it?

If I remember right Ed said he was offered so of it, but did not bite
