    Excellent news, took a bit of finagling to get there but if you pledged you win so who's gonna cry foul? Cookie Monster maybe? Great stuff.

    Hasn’t moved in 20 minutes, so maybe it was Hasbro adjusting numbers

    Maybe a bunch of people piled on wanting the 8000th order but didn't get it so now they're pulling out and waiting for another number that is significant to them.

    And I'm going to call it.....never gonna happen. GI Joe is dead as hell as a brand, and GI Joe collectors are notoriously cheap. Every time Hasbro would throw them a bone and tool up a new vehicle, they'd wait for it to go on clearance. Well, you reap what you sow when you vote with your wallet, and Hasbro got the message loud and clear that Joe fans don't pay the big bucks.

    Losing. LOSING. For fuck's sake it's LOSE not LOOSE. FUUUUUUUCK why must we continue to destroy the English language???

    As soon as I see someone write "loose" instead of "lose" I immediately stop reading and go on to the next post. Same with "should of" instead of "should have."

    Seeing that is like hearing nails on a chalkboard for me.

    Apologies if English is your second language, of course. If it's not...well.

    Anyway, sorry to derail. Unicron is neat.

    I may eventually drop my 2nd order (2nd through BBTS, first through Hasbro). I haven't decided if the benefits if 2 remotely justify the cost.

    But I'm certainly not doing it BEFORE the deadline.

    Went to bed, woke up and it's funded by a mile. Thought it would. Congrats on the funding, and enjoy your huuuge Unicron folks.

    Anyway, this is the first picture I've seen where the planet crust actually looks something close to the greyer colour from the movie. I can't say the robot chest or face edging does the same, as pics from the same guy at the same time don't reveal that to be the case. Nonetheless it's clear that lighting does make a difference. That said, even in the right light to transform the grey, the yellow still looks wrong. I can't get my head round it not resembling any image from the movie.

    I'd say 8m not backing it, but at this point it'd be buying it, wouldn't it?

    People today complain about mistakes in typing but lack the ability to speak to strangers outside of the internet world.

    Not only that, but manys of them peoples gots shit poor grammar in spoke world boy!

    I don't think anyone goes even a single day without hearing someone make spoken grammar mistakes in the real world. When they do, these same people that bitch about it online sit their silently. I guess it's only an issue when it's online and completely forgivable in the real world (since you don't have time to sit there forever and contemplate a comment before speaking).

    Never do I see any of these Grammer nazis react in the real world like they do online. It's very stupid and hypocritical.

    Get over yourself.

    ....yeah, I mean the next time I hear my boss use the word "um" or improperly pauses mid sentence, or forgets to use inflection in his question, I should just walk away and tell him to come speak to me when he learns English.... (sarcasm).

    See how silly that is. Ok, I'm done now.
