    Wow. Do you hate the fandom or what?
    So because europe looks like paying more than us, everyone else should not get it??
    People outside of us have been paying more for tf for YEARS.
    I don’t see why this should be treated any differently.
    And people in asia paid about 240usd and they’re even close to vietnam than us is. Do they get angry? Boycott it? No, they suck it up and work/save harder to pay for it

    or wait a discount at retail

    No problem. I'm honestly not that in need of a Jan and a holiday, but I also suspect we may not get another chance

    I can forgive Saber and Victory Leo having some hollow bits since the fully combined Victory Saber winds up hiding most of it ... except ... the hollow bits on Victory Leo's Cannons do really bother me.

    This is a special release, it would be nice if they could get rid of the waffles on the underside of the cannons, they really stick out like an eyesore. I don't think Takara's version of Super Ginrai had those kind of Waffles on his two giant guns. And how much was that figure?

    Honestly some figures released in the WFC and studio series 86 line feel like mini masterpieces to me.

    if hasbro could sell it for the same price as america and make the same amount of profit, they would. so obviously there is importing taxes and other factors in economics at play in europe that Hasbro has to factor in. I can completely understand frustration ...... I wish I could get 3p prices that people in china and shang hai get instead of paying like 20-50$ more but its life... if its not worth it to someone then ok dont get it but to go on a crusade trying to make sure the thing cant get made is a bit ...well extreme lol

    Looks nice, but I needs more pics before I throw down. I just might since it's only under $200.

    The big cannon as a stretch goal is lame though. But I'm sure a 3rd party would come through.

    I mean while technically true we all know what the OP meant lol. That’s only Deathsaurus in name. Doesn’t change that a proper figure of him is needed

    So far 38% backed, I hope this pace continues but I’m cautiously optimistic

    Hopefully at least tier 1 will be achieved. I would prefer if Star Saber had all his arsenal and I'm a sucker for blast effects.

    For anyone waffling because the giant gun is at 14,000 backers: if VL is funded, but doesn't reach that 1st stretch goal, I guarantee there will be AT LEAST one 3p company making it as an upgrade kit.
