Yay! Glad this wasn’t coming down to the final minutes to get Flint over the line. A few hours to spare is great! Honestly wasn’t sure a week ago we’d get everything but glad that worry was unnecessary. Proves you never can really guess the way the wind blows on these Haslabs.

I’m always genuinely curious what causes people to wait until the very last day to back. Is it a lack of understanding on how the charging process works? Is it not seeing the value unless all tiers are unlocked? Is it just genuinely not knowing about the project before then? I just wash we’d get...

Maybe all of those retractions throughout the campaign just got added back in? :ROFLMAO:

Now that Mez is dabbling in vehicles, I wonder if an old style gangster car could be in the works? Between the rebooted Gangster Inc line and all the Dick Tracy figures, I would think there would be enough interest in that. Plus the classical Batman figures could work with something like that...

My Rattler is scheduled for delivery, how ironic getting it just as this campaign is coming to an end. If I hadn’t already backed that would probably push me over the edge haha. Really curious if the backwards trend continues tomorrow or if we’re past that now?

Most Haslabs advertise the figures as exclusive to the Haslab, never to be released again. The Cantina Haslab had to clarify that that tiers were on exclusive cards, but the figures could be released on alternate cards later. Thus giving people hope on the Wolfman that didn’t unlock. The Tonnika...

To top things off, I had a double trouble accessories set in my cart, thinking I would make the most of their shipping. Oh no, they wanted another $12 to ship that set separately. They wouldn’t combine them into one shipment. Bunch of crap.

He’s up now, in stock, exclusive. https://www.mezcotoyz.com/sparky-foreman Shipping was like $35 which seems like a tariff covering scheme to me. I’ve got a giant 3 foot, 20 pound dragon coming from the Four Horsemen in a few years and that was only $70. Mezco is really padding their shipping...

That should have happened a while ago. The lack of support outside these last few days was pretty much non existent.

That’s a very telling graph. The Rancor felt like it only limped around few backers each day. If this is doing worse than that, it really doesn’t bode well. The tiers kind of killed that project and the tiers certainly aren’t helping this one.

That’s my hope! Once tiers start unlocking the momentum will really get going. Or at least I hope!

If we can get to 10k and unlock Jaye tomorrow, Flint would be an actual possibility again. 4K in a day isn’t out of the question on a last day.

They must have gotten a fresh batch or something because my Rattler just shipped too!

I’m sure zombies will be coming eventually. Like you said, they are kind of building up to that currently with the dark energon. They could even be ramping up to an energon fueled Mass device or something like that. I think the response to the energon universe has been very positive and well...

I’m not sure you’re out of the woods until you have it in your hands. Plenty of things can go wrong in shipping, especially when Walmart in involved. Hoping it goes smoothly for everyone but we’ve all been burned by Walmart too many times to expect otherwise. :(

Yeah, Walmarts track record has been awful lately. I ordered an ‘in stock’ DC Multiverse Jim Gordon figure the other day and they tried to substitute it with a Marvel Legends Endgame Captain America (and wanted me to pay the $5 more for him as well). No thanks!

Same, I really want all those food items at this point. I’d rather have them and the campsite tier than Jaye or Flint if we aren’t getting everything. Hopefully they sneak those in regardless.

It’s funny what mental barriers reaching funding will knock down. Some of the biggest backer numbers since the early days of the campaign. Granted the last week usually sees that anyway but it’s a nice change after weeks of low double digits.

Managed to get an order in for Kitana for pick up at a local GameStop. Says ‘in stock’ for pickup tomorrow so we’ll see. It’s a smaller, slower store so I can’t imagine it wouldn’t be ready later today unless there is some kind of street date they have to follow.

No, not at all. I’m not thrilled with the price point but the bundle price with club membership and the 10% discount code took most of the sting away. Totally get where you’re coming from and don’t disagree. Kitana isn’t actually an exclusive from my understanding. She’s ‘red platinum’ which...

McFarlane and NECA seem to be the two main toy companies really passing on those tariffs rather than absorbing them like Hasbro and Mattel have been. They’re smaller companies so they probably can’t do that as easily. I had all of the Storm ninjas and got rid of them a couple of years ago. They...

Ordered the bundle from the McFarlane store. Annoying Kitana isn’t apart of that when she’s more heavily packed that Sub Zero and Scorpion. Dumbest move Todd has made yet is short packing SZ and S over Lui Kang and Kitana. I doubt she’ll be too difficult to find but SZ and S might be a different...

Glad it funded fairly early today so we have some momentum going into the weekend before people check out for the weekend. Should be an interesting week!

It will be interesting if it funding will cause more backers or more cancellations. People jumping in knowing it’s happening or people jumping out because they know it’s happening but might not reach all the tiers. Hopefully this last week is a very productive one!

Speaking of thoughts on Dreadnoks, has anyone else listened to the Cold Slither album? I’m really digging it and it really feels written by a fan familiar with the lore. It really emphasizes they are separate from Cobra but fight where the money is.
