How long until one of these huge kickstarter funds doesn't deliver.

I've already seen it on some of the smaller stuff...

Kickstarter lawsuits seem inevitable, though most backers probably don't have enough money invested to make a lawsuit worthwhile.

Also, these big fundraisers have proven track records, so they are less likely to fail.
