>Bakelites
We had some magazines which were especially rare for collectors. We sold them from as low as $20 and had a handful that were rare enough that in our mind the deserved to be priced at $100-something.

These especially rare ones had unique molding features that would only matter to autistic collectors, but for some people they were worth getting.

We only ever sold a couple of the really rare ones, and in the end we got rid of the whole lot of magazines to another vendor who went on to sell them for $40 irrespective of their rarity.

>Rhodesian Camo Project
To date our biggest and most successful project was a multi-year effort to revive Rhodesian camouflage. We spent literal years painstakingly reproducing an unobtainable camo using primary sources and museum collections.

During this process we invested a chunky five figures into R&D, and this was in the very early stages of our company---it really was a huge endeavor.

Not only was it our biggest ever sales event, we successfully delivered the most accurate Rhodesian prints anyone has ever done. We did it on US made fabric, and using Atlanco (makers of Tru-Spec) for sewing and packaging.

There was no "scam" in Rhodesian camo and there are literal hundreds of happy people who can personally attest to that.

I'm now going to start dumping photos from when we actually received and fulfilled the Rhodesian camo orders in 2016
