Looks like Hasbro has put out some more shots of the the prototype with painted Flint and Lady Jaye showing things off more. About time! The thing that drives me crazy is when they don’t have those done and ready for the presentation. Digital renders are great but you really should have a...

This may be the first Haslab I’m really torn on. I backed it day one, no questions asked. But it has me questioning why this needed to be a Haslab in the first place. They released this ship several times in the past at retail. Granted times have changed and retail probably isn’t interested in a...

Cosmic hasn’t really connected to me like Legions or Figura Obscura have and I think that seems to be the case with many others too. My first dabble will be the alternate head packs. They got me for the blue snakes and clan of Greys. Otherwise I’ve not picked any up. I’m sure they are great but...

I’ve had the same thoughts during other Haslab campaigns and really Hasbro checks out for the most part. They launch it and walk away aside from a couple of emails or posts on social. That’s about it. If it’s looking like it will hit minimum funding, they are happy. If it falls short they may do...

It’s about what happened with Leodysseus. He’s $100 on BBTS. With this wave all being slightly more across the board than the Beasts wave, it’s about what the we expected. Still not great of course but not that unexpected. The Bears still have the highest jump I think. They managed to keep the...

Those are the retailer MSRPs set by the Four Horsemen. They did say several times it was at least a 25% savings ordering directly through them, over 30% savings on the all in set.

No, they have different exclusives lined up for NYCC.

They don’t typically say ‘funded’ immediately after it reaches the goal, probably for that exact reason. Although once things fund, they typically see a spike in orders as its happening and that point and FoMo begins its work.

It tracks with message boards like this also slowing down on weekends vs weekdays. Guess people got more things going on than toy talk during the weekends.

Another thing that may be holding this back is the lack of army building. The Hiss and Rattler did that better and ha: 26,000+ orders. The Dragonfly, much like this, had all named characters and did only 24,000+ orders. Still far and above beyond the 14,000 we need to unlock everything but to...

Man, that certainly fuels conspiracy theories on what’s going on with the Snow Cat then.

Has this been seeing the mysterious early morning drops in backers the Snow Cat is having or is that unique to the Snow Car so far?

Got my preorder for Kite Man today and of course it was the platinum variant, which I actually didn’t want. You never luck into a Platinum when you want them :ROFLMAO:

What’s interesting is that Haslabs that don’t fund during that first weekend seem to struggle until the last week. When they fund early, they seem to do a little better during the slow period of the campaign but usually clear the tiers long before the campaign ends rather than in the last few...

Funding, absolutely. Unless something crazy happens I think that’s all but guaranteed 500 out from it funding. The tiers are less guaranteed at this point. All of them seem unlikely currently. This hasn’t tracked like previous Classified Haslabs so it’s hard to say if the last minute surge will...

I think one per customer is really the only thing they can do to help with that aside from making enough inventory, which is always a bit of a gamble with con exclusives. You don’t want to make too many of those and you don’t typically get the benefit of preordering to gauge that demand ahead of...

After today’s disaster with the SDCC exclusives it’s clear the pulse website is held together with chewing gum and duct tape. I can’t image how many people haven’t ordered this because they ran into an issue. For a billion dollar company, they sure have a mom and pop system they’re still using...

Nobody else try for the Mustafar set? Total cluster this morning. Thought it missed when the final screen wigged out but I got my order confirmation for it and the Savage land. Selling out in under a minute is just insane. Either bots are at work or they had tiny amounts available. Hopefully...

Over on Yakface I read that those mysterious early morning drops have cost this campaign 600 backers so far, which if that is true, this would already have funded. Really curious what those are about now. Do they have to manually remove any cancelled orders? Is something skewing numbers higher...

You’ll get more realistic weathering if you think through how something got weathered. If they are walking through mud, their shins down are probably going to be grimey-er than their upper body. They will probably take more blows to their front than their back so the back shouldn’t have as much...

It’s crazy how this and the Snow Cat have under performed since last year’s campaigns. Not just slightly less than previously but dramatically. I think the Snow Cat will cross the finish line (probably not hitting all tiers) but I’m starting to get a Rancor vibe from the Gun Ship. Wonder what...

They mentioned it in that panel recap video posted on the Pulse YouTube channel they they’ve got the rocket launcher able to be set up on its own off of the vehicle. So yes, that’s happening now. :)

Seems unlikely but anything is certainly possible. Haslabs have the usual 5 unit order limit, right? That would mean a good handful of accounts ordering and then canceling the max amount each day. As buggy as Pulse is, I’d be surprised if it didn’t prevent them from reordering again after...

I got the Disney Parks Sandcrawler a few years back so I’m good there. I was actually worried that was this year’s Haslab with that sand in the display case. I get the desire though and not everyone has or is satisfied with the existing ones. They could even cross sell it with the Mandalorian as...

Could you imagine them teasing him out all year long during live streams with a new line just like in the cartoon? People could really buy into that and when they finally release him he’d probably do fairly well.
