Alright, I think this is my last Assembly Required post for today.

Announcing Filibus, The Mysterious Air Pirate.

Filibus is a hand made action figure, based on the 1915 film Filibus. They are a genderfluid airship captain, and the star of my serial magazine The Mysterious Air Pirates.

These are the first batch of our Deluxe Full-color edition figures. They're hand painted.

Future editions will probably involve paint masks, but I didn't have time to do it fast so I had to take the time to do it slow.

There are currently 5 of this Deluxe Edition Filibus Action Figure, along with about two dozen of a show exclusive variant. They will be available this weekend at Assembly Required in Asheville, NC.

After Assembly Required, a second hand painted batch will be available for fedifolk sometime in Feb, and another different edition will be available in March.

Oh, one last thing before I hit the sack.

If you want to watch #filibus, it's up on wikimedia commons:

https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Filibus_1915.webm

I recommend against re-releasing or remixing the above copy if you're worried about copyright infringement, as that one uses a new translation and new inter-titles which are probably under copyright. The original english titles are lost, afaik.

I'm working on a new new translation ( https://communitymedia.video/w/nYaqWnn34d57auvQeSE6TY ) with cc-by-sa intertitles and a new score, but it isn't ready yet.

That's one of the projects I want to pick back up in the near future.

Regardless, #filibus is a #feminist #skypirate film full of #airship shenanigans and #queer #romance #revolutionaryJoy. It's also 100 years old, and it was the inspiration for our #skypirates playset.

ALRIGHT!

HERE WE GO!

We're making action figures! and we're mostly using recycled plastics!

Here's the first release candidate of a #Skypirate action figure for our #Skypirates Playset which we're building for #assemblyRequired, which is Feb 1st and 2nd (leaving in 5 days!!.)

Hey! I want to get an artist to draw some of our #skypirate characters. I'll give you some money!

Are you an artist that wants to draw our #skypirates in exchange for money?

There's a third #skypirate film in this proto- #steampunk trilogy called The Arial Anarchists, but it has been lost for around 100 years.

It's based on a book, though. The book is called Hartmann, the Anarchist; Or, The Doom of the Great City by E. Douglas Fawcett

That's on PG and Librevox. I haven't read it. I might not ever read it. Who knows?

But if you wanted to watch a 115 year old science fiction film about sky pirates... well, go watch The Pirates of 1920, it's a much better movie than The Airship Destroyer.

But if you wanted to watch a Second 115 year old film about #skypirates... Go watch The Aerial Submarine, it's a much better film than The Airship Destroyer.

But if you wanted to watch a THIRD 115 year old film about #airship pirates... well, The Airship Destroyer is now available.
