    If we were to get some tier bonus that didn't have anything to with the figure directly, I'd rather if instead of merchandise, and if it was possible to get a special blu ray set of Transformers Victory subbed. Cause that'd be pretty neat, and could potentially bring in a lot more backers. Though definitely impractical and unlikely.

    My favorite Star Saber feature is how it has the ability to turn off all the braincells of like 50% of this forum

    While the stand isn't exactly "flashy", I'm more appreciative of add-ins that help the Victory Saber figure itself be a better toy. I don't really care about swag that exists just for the sake of free stuff, without adding anything to the play experience.

    I could see a code for a digital copy rather than a physical bluray

    If that's going to be an extra, then they're not likely to also post the series on Youtube like other people are hoping for, though.

    You really don't.

    It's mostly people erroneously conflating standard action figures of twice the price to a multi-component Transformer and wondering why we aren't getting full deluxes as bonus tiers.

    Now is that a stretch goal or part of the initial 11000 number?

    TFW you see Pete Sinclair on FB complaining about HasLab and Hasbro being an $11 billion company... The man lived off of their scraps and charged ridiculous sums of money to access those.

    Dafuq, man?

    I can just smell the butthurt from losing out on Hasbro's official backing.

    I wonder if people realize that just because your company is worth a lot of money doesn't mean you can literally make whatever you want without regard for profitability.

    Like do you think these companies get this big off of frivolous marketing?

    I'm pretty sure that when any average Joe tries to mentally picture that much money, the first thought that comes to mind is Scrooge McDuck's money bin (or maybe Richie Rich's "piles of money everywhere").

    That's not how money works in real life, of course.

    Oh you mean marvel legends that at most have 20 joints and are the same basic human structures of male, female, and absolute unit?

    It's economics.

    You want the stand included, base? Buy-in cost is now $200 instead of $180.

    I’m not super enthusiastic about a stand but a lot of people were hoping for a stand.

    honestly glad Victory Leo isn’t a tier cause the leakers seem to think that was going to happen. I’ll be bummed about no gun but Hasbro could always include it in an expansion pack.
