Hey folks,
Will here from Signature Plastics. If you saw my interview with Taeha this week, you’ll know that he mentioned a set that many of us consider E N D G A M E and which doesn't come up for sale on the secondary market often. Well, little did he know, we’ve actually been working to bring you Round 2 for months, and the time has arrived.
SA Grand Budapest is finally making its way back, and it’s coming directly from us—Signature Plastics. Certified Authentic and in collaboration with original designer Madēo.I’ve always wanted to post an Interest Check myself. Now I get to do it, and I want this to be as community-driven as possible. We’re here to build something with you.
Colors and VibeSA Grand Budapest is still that perfect mix of vintage and modern design. It’s got those rich purples, playful pinks, and a little european charm. But we’ll be updating and tweaking it to improve things from the original run with some more modern options.
What’s New in Round 2?This isn’t just a straight-up re-run. We’ve kept what you loved from the original set, but we’re adding a few new touches—small things here and there to give this round something special.
If you weren’t in the hobby at the time, you might not know about the Elk key. The Elk novelty key was part of the original design, but never shipped. We wanted to include it in the original set, but it turns out, it was physically impossible for us to mold it the way it was envisioned. But we still want the elk to have its moment. I’m thinking maybe an artisan add-on or something that nods to the fleeting appearances of the elk in the movie. Open to suggestions here, because this one has been bugging me for a while.
Why Are We Doing an IC?Fair question—why is a company like Signature Plastics doing an Interest Check instead of just rolling out the set?
Well, we want input from the community. We're not here to just launch something and hope it sticks. I want your input, your ideas. This set is as much yours as it is ours. Let’s figure this out together.
We Need Your Input!So here’s where we need your help:
- Kitting options: We’ve made some tweaks that *we* think are important, but what changes would the community like to see?
- Novelties: Got any fresh ideas for novelties? We’re all ears.
How to Get InvolvedWhat’s Next?Once we’ve gathered your feedback, we’ll finalize the kits and make this set available for purchase directly through Signature Plastics. Pricing is subject to change as we gather feedback about kits.
Shipping This set is currently planned to ship in late October or early November 2024.
