FLASHGITZ FRIDAY + PATRON-EXCLUSIVE MINI REVEAL! (Patreon)
Content
Brothers! Welcome back to Flashgitz Friday, your boarding station for the biggest hype train of the century!
As we depart this metaphorical choo-choo train station, let’s take a look back at some of the exciting reveals from this week! In case you live under a big dumb rock, SPACE KING IS GETTING A BOARD GAME!
That’s right, soon you’ll be able to use and abuse your friends in real life with a Space King flair! Unless you happen to be the friend group’s Chestnut.
How could you say no to THAT BOX ART!?
This boardgame will also be the debut of THE FIRST SPACE KING MINIATURES! The squad is tiny, ready, and more willing than ever before! Will you spend your evenings painting Captain’s frilly headdress? Or will you exile the squad into the ice cream tub of grey shame? The choice is yours!
“Miniatures”? I think they’re a perfectly average size.
Patrons will of-course receive the otherwise limited B-Positive pin should they back the campaign.
This exclusive pin acts as a protective amulet against gang violence.
But for you Brother, there’s an extra reward…
Patrons ONLY will receive an exclusive mini of Captain in his Relic Armour from Episode 5’s War-World!
He’s already yours. Just back the Kickstarter and you’ll receive both the Relic Captain and the B-Positive pin for free.
Consider it a thank-you for all these years of sticking by our side through thick and thin. We’ve already had partners pull out of the board game because they were too scared of the content, but you guys and every other brave soul left on the development team is ride-or-die. So with your support, we’re excited to turn this METEORIC and prove everybody wrong and make them look totally stupid.
We already have your emails, so all you need to do is hit FOLLOW on the Kickstarter now and back the project once it launches on August 29th!

But enough about our cool toys, let’s get back on track to what the whole world is waiting for: SPACE KING 5!
This week we dropped a new teaser trailer for Space King Episode 5: War World! This brief teaser also marks the first appearance of a new (long-awaited) character in the Space King universe, Chip!
You autismos on the Reddit were very quick to clock Chip’s very first appearance from Don’s Instagram.
Chip is a commander in the Wargonites legion: one of the apex predators of War World. Isn’t he dreamy? We only have a few weeks left until Episode 5’s debut (AUGUST 29TH, BABY!!), so the team is finalizing a lot of the compositing and vfx for this toon. To celebrate the new trailer dropping, I’m gonna share a handful of finished shots featuring the newest addition to our cast of Psycho Warriors.
When he’s not aura farming in the shadows, he’s hot-boxing that helmet with space tobacco.
Driving your fingers through their eyes actually hurts real pigs, too! Attention to detail is very important to us.
Obviously the cowardly aliens have to gang up to take down one humble Psycho Warrior.
A spear designed to gauge out both eyes at once.
Chip, along with the Wargonites, are War World’s apex ass-kickers.
His gentle gaze makes my heart flutter <3
This one has nothing to do with Chip. I just wanted you to see Captain get drawn and quartered.
We’re very excited to be sharing more pieces of Space King 5 with you, but you’re still going to have to wait a few more weeks to get the full package! In the meantime, you can keep yourself occupied by heading on over to the Tom and Don channel to watch this week’s upload! Idle minds are the devil’s playthings, afterall.
This week’s Tom and Don is about everyone’s favorite Mongolian-coded Space Marine chapter, The White Scars! We take a look back at their history and lore and figure out what makes them so goddamn LAME. Listen. I know a lot of you are White Scars fans. But instead of yelling at me in THESE comments, go leave your thoughts over on YouTube instead.
Have a little peeky-peek at this week’s episode!
Is the lightning bolt actually cool to White Scars fans?
Don’s Mongolian ancestry reawakens as he yearns to conquer.
Yeah, this joke is probably as tasteless as it looks.
Go check out the latest upload! It’s the last 40k video before we go on another Space King marathon, so enjoy it now!
Well, Brothers, that does it for this week’s Flashgitz Friday! And as usual, I want to thank our Brothers, Greedy Brothers, and VERY Greedy Brothers for your continued support! It’s because of you that we’re able to make all the insane things that you guys deserve. Not only have you helped us with the enormous undertaking that is Episode 5: War World, but did I forget to mention that we have a BOARD GAME?! Insane things like that would DEFINITELY not be possible without all of your help. So thank you, Brothers!
Until next week!
Praise Be!
Whew. There was a lot today. Let’s catch a breather together by checking out some FAN ART!!!
A Space King X Eddsworld parody by @Kitt_katts0742 on Twitter! That’s a load-bearing Captain if I ever saw one. What’s he squat? Like 4000?
The Violet Reclaimer squad by @ThomasSpettel on Twitter! Featuring Terry (or another Galavanter?) dishing out some good old violet violence!
A beautiful painting of globule dango (did I say that right?) by @FizzyCherryArt on Twitter! Way too many of you fantasize about eating globules. Go eat some jello and get some help!
Thank you, Brothers! See you next week!
Praise Be!
