    I’m genuinely disappointed to hear that this failed. I only had a casual interest, and certainly wasn’t going to lay down any money until it was produced and early reviews were in, after the Inventa concerns.

    2 days left till the psx deadline but I guess it's dead in the water now.
    I cant say I'm surprised, just disappointed. Oh well, guess I get $50 to put towards something else.

    Feel bad for Rick tho, it's a great design and deserved to get made.

    I wasn't gonna get this, but I feel bad for all you who don't get this and have to deal with the 5-year-old one from perfect effect while I get the Star Convoy I always wanted. Sorry guys. #rd Party crowdfunding is Bull Shit at this point.

    Never too late... MTMTE forever! (but I see what you are saying)

    Let's see what Rik and MMC have in mind before we despair (still worried though... I need a hug)

    I’m now questioning my commitment to the reformatted line and the shelf space my MMC chugs are currently occupying. Aesthetically the display area would look better being apart of my Mp alt mode display. Hell idw canceled the publishing. Realistically any new idw reformatted release are going to be far and few between with heavy reliance on generic remolding/repainting I’m not going to be happy with..... what’s the point?

    How long has nickel, the pet, teasuras and helix taken? Why?

    The nihilism has set in quick with me today.

    I think we are all just salty, angry, and disappointed that the numbers are so low at this point.
    Hoping that Plan C shows itself soon and works out.
    This is my top 3rd party figure that I want right now.
    If I could throw in for a Grand and a Brave recolor I would do that right now.

    PSX said the crowdfund reached only 200 in China and 400 abroad, way less than the goal(800 in China & 800 abroad). He once said he will cover all 800 pieces in domestic market but the foreign market response still far from success. The problem is, although China has a HUGE tf market, the customer preference leans heavily to bayverse & G1 stuff. The fandom of IDW comic in China is almost nothing compared with movies and G1 cartoon fandoms. Any IDW toy should have not counted on Chinese market that much.
