    Yeah, last minute cancellations/processing errors is probably dropping the tally. Not surprised.

    I knew this would make it. Hasbro won’t let it fail. Exactly like the barge. The last 2 days it jump way pass the required goal. Congrats to all! I only got 3 unlike the barge. I can’t see this sell like the barge aftermarket. TF is always way too many and the ko from China will probably do this for half the price as they ko every thing tf in due time. So investing in this is way too risky for me. Btw people know now to load up after the barge. Barge was the first so not many took the risk. I did buy a warehouse full of barges but sold them all ASAP for near 500.00 each, took the money and ran to safety lol. Definitely not doing the same going forward. The playground is now saturated with much more players expecting this to be like the first barge project. I just po two to open and display in both forms. Then one to keep sealed for myself. Good luck and congrats to all collecting or selling these. We are all so lucky they made it for us!

    whether its over 11k or 22k ........ both are a testament to having the haslab projects for now on go longer than just 45 days. yeah the star wars fans are going to cry that its unfair to them like its some sort of competition (many of us are fans of both) but for now on just make each campaign 60 days at least

    Actually that number is that high. Checked that mofo on the 5th it was sitting at 7,936. Factor in stores finally sending the committed to pay orders to haslab. And people hitting the pay tab now before midnight. Get over shit like this does happen

    15% is a waste of time imo. But yes I agree the risk is too high going forward. See my post about my thoughts above.

    OK, so not sure what everyone is tracking, but I see 3 potential numbers here. Not sure of logic or system they are using, or if ANY of this is valid/correct.

    The JSON data in page shows

    inventory_quantity: -7282,

    Which was increasing as it went past 8,000. One could infer they had 8,000 entered in system as inventory, they sold them all, and now they are 7,282 past that.

    There is the CSS/JS progress bar, which is pulling some data from somewhere, which pauses around 143% of funding goal.

    Then there is the Funded pic on the haslab home page, which is showing about double that progress bar number, 286%.

    All this is changing slightly now that it's ended, but major changes have slowed down.


    So, estimates:

    inventory count - 15,xxx
    progress bar count - 11,xxx
    funded pic count - 22,xxx

    Again, not sure what the logic is here, or if anything here is correct, but I'd guess one of these numbers is close, assuming they are using the back end system fully and all data is entered.

    Congrats to everyone (bar three or four idiots) that got this and got it funded.

    Let's hope Hasbro doesn't screw this up between now and it sitting on all your hopefully well built, sturdy shelves (except the three or four, you guys can store it on 5mm chipboard).

    If it’s a hobby and you enjoy selling at 15% then congrats. Enjoy what you make and buy plenty of new items. Depending how each person looks at it.
