    While I've backed all the TF HasLabs, this is the first one I backed instantly. He looks magnificent and comes with everything he should. They went above and beyond.

    There's always the alternate translation Dezaras used in Combiner Wars.

    It'll be interesting to see how well this project ends up doing. If even *half* of the people who bought Saber buy this he'll hit goal no problem (which is all that ultimately matters).

    I would think that's a reasonable expectation. Not everyone who bought Saber will want Saurus, or could afford him even if they did. But I would think at least half of the original Saber pool would get behind this just to have both.

    One thing that'll also be interesting.... what does this do to the Saber secondary market. Were there people who skipped Saber but now back Deathsaurus and want his nemesis?

    No, that's okay. We don't need to lock random unrelated characters behind stretch goals.

    Well there’s already the MMC version and that hasn’t seemed to matter.

    An unmoving piece of plastic vs an entire figure that has to be engineered to transform. That’s like going to a restaurant and asking them to substitute the pickles on Your cheeseburger and give you a pizza instead.

    It’s literally the cheapest Haslab they’ve offered.

    I imagine this reveal will make Haslab Victory Saber go up in price on the secondary market.

    Didn't stop Unicron.

    I wonder if Hasbro is trying to get Star Saber out to backers before this window closes.

    Having that in hand may be the last big *push* needed to get people over the hump and backing it.

    No. It did 3307 its first 24 hours. It basically did 300 a day until it failed to hit the early bird and started hemorrhaging backers.

    this will beat that easily. Of course, this is also half the price.

    I’ve zero interest in this, but I’m thrilled it’s a Haslab product and not taking away a precious mainstream Masterpiece slot.

    It only happens if you leave a reply through the front page. A small issue with the code.
    It will never happen if you are in the actual thread and reply there.

    This is correct.
