Firefly - Out to the Black Card Game Kickstarter canceled.
Toy Vault/Game Salute pulls the plug on 38x-funded project 6 days before the pledged funds are actually collected.
Here's the meat of the quote from Toy Vault/Game Salute: "Unfortunately, we must discontinue this project in its current form, however we assure you that we will be continuing with the game and promo pack production, and are excited about the official launch currently planned for late October."
They now are suggesting direct pre-orders from the company.

Though I did say it was a cynical marketing opportunity at the time. That goal felt far too low to be realistic.

"Through the overwhelming support shown through this campaign, Toy Vault was able to create the promo packs to enhance the game." Except, since Toy Vault got no actual money from the now-cancelled crowdfunder, that inherently means ToyVault had the financial ability to produce the extra material without any Kickstarter funding, which inherently means the Kickstarter was unnecessary.
No?

Perhaps it could be a licensing issue? Someone on the Kickstarter comments mentions that it was Toy Vault has the Firefly license, not Game Salute who was behind the Kickstarter campaign. So perhaps there was some issue with Game Salute selling the items directly to consumers, with the presale now happening via Toy Vault's website not Game Salute. As the company Game Salute does have it's own online store, but the Firefly game isn't up on there, it's only Toy Vault selling it.
