I’m guessing the Victory stuff won’t be MP? I would pay top dollar for a proper sized Dezarus. My Planet X with G1 kit is a nice stand in but…..
If this does well enough, who knows? The presence of a character in the mainline has never stopped MPs of it before. (Though I genuinely think MP Raiden may be built to accompany this project, successful or not.)
Hmm, I wonder what kind of unlockables they'll give us for this. That would be so dope if they start including other Brainmasters at each level, though I'm sure it'll be something lame like extra blast effects... maybe a flight stand or something, I guess that would be cool... I'm just hoping this isn't too crazy expensive. I'm assuming it'll be a set of Victory Leo and Star Saber, but I hope that they charge something reasonable like $200 instead of their typical bonkers HasLab price range of $300+ ...
If it hits above 250 I am done outright. I will walk away with nothing from this but more money for me
Side note I just noticed, but in Transformers Energon, all three Japanese G1 leaders are referenced by Optimus and his combining partners Wing Saber is Star Saber Optimus Flight Mode is God Ginrai And Omega Supreme is Fortress Maximus
Yeah, I'm worried because a lot of the campaigns no longer have their prices listed on PULSE, but iirc none of them so far have been below $300?? And I'd hate for them to be like "well, these are both Commander size, and well, we know you all have wanted these in Generations forever, so... pay up, bitches..." Now, if it was a 3-Pack of Deszaras, Victory Leo, and Star Saber for $300-350, I would probably go for that especially if they were all Commander sized.
I mean I don’t think none being less than $300 means they can’t do it now. Needs only one to set a precedent. That being said if it is $300 it better be Star Saber + Victory Leo and it better be damn good.
Yikes I think far more likely is a little squat-pose version of Jan to sit on SS's shoulder like those crap figures with SS Grimlock & Slag
I would much rather have more Titan Masters of all related kids than those lame figures so far… maybe stretch goal is Wheelies movable parts?
Galactus just hit 17k. That's roughly 4k in the last two days. People who think X for Saber is going to be too large a goal haven't been watching this. Things can snowball quickly once those stretch goals start unlocking.
I think it's been rumored that online retailer orders come in during the last day or so, adding to the big push at the end... Although never underestimate the power of "this is the last opportunity to order this! Buy now or miss out FOREVER!!!" (Which is a marketing thing. If you really really want it later there will be someone reselling it on ebay.... at a more than substantial markup.)
I think this happens because some people have a misconception about how these fundraisers work even though Hasbro has an explanation right on the product page. There are definitely people who don’t back projects until after it has been fully funded who think that they get charged regardless of if the product getting made or not. That is why Galactus went from a snail’s pace to a flood of backers after it was funded or why even though Unicron needed extra time to succeed it still ended with 2k+ more backers then what was needed. I have had to explain to a lot of people over the years how fundraising campaigns like Kickstarter work, some people multiple times.
