If it's a stretch goal then it should be included, like the stretch goals for the Sentinel Haslab, but only if the needed order threshold is met.
Oh man, hoping the rumors of Victory Leo being a tier are true. Honestly been wanting a new Victor Leo for years, I'll happily take a Star Saber to get to it. But also hoping this doesn't launch or at least end until mid September. Unicron's crowdfund dropped right before Dragoncon that year and couldn't swing it so I had to go through BBTS. C'mon Haslab, help me help you
I can’t see them just “throwing in” a potentially leader sized figure, though. Unless that’s the reason it’s rumored to be priced at $200+ and they’re just hedging their bets. I know I don’t really want one without the other…
Oh no no no. Please DON'T be Star Saber or Deathsaurus, I can't afford some Haslab Unicron-level shit. Please be Dinoking instead.
That's what they've done for all the stretch goals for Unicron, Razor Crest, and Sentinel. I don't know why Star Saber would be different.
No, I want the dam figure to be worth the actual price, it’s not hard to understand. Regardless of exclusivity or whatever, the figure itself needs to actually be worth what you are paying, not factors like exclusivity.
The potp poll was assaulted by the BW crowd. Magnus came in 2nd because people wanted a new non-idw mode toy. Star Saber and Deathsaurus were 3 and 4. If SS gets a new combining toy with VL in awesome detail I will finally get over his POTP loss. (And good luck bw fans at a new optimal optimus... Hasbro probably sees potp as the "definitive" version of him)
I like my alien robot cars to be goofy fish outta water not tactical space militants thank you very much. Now if you excuse me I have a clip of Optimus Prime dunking on a human to watch
Yay. Haslab Victory Saber? Why couldn’t they make it a regular release? Gonna be expensive and over engineered. Fuck you @Hasbro. pass. Thanks but NO thanks.
So who do we think the Haslab will be? Obvious choice would be Star Saber. Maybe in a two pack with Victory Leo. Even more fun would be a three pack with Deathsaurus. To hit the rumored "at least half the price of Unicron" price I would think the 3 pack would be the best bet. Leokaiser done properly with all 6 members this time and their breast animals could be nice too. Or maybe Dinoking finally? I don't know what that would do to our chances of Monstructor if they used the molds for a Haslab project though. Both of these would struggle to hit the price though. Liokaiser is six deluxes (maybe 5 and a voyager) and 6 micromasters. Dinoking is the same but instead of the micromasters, there would be pretender shells. That's only around $200 each probably. Road Caesar and Landcross definitely are too small for this. Blue Bacchus is better suited to a leader, like Black Shadow. We already have Legends Greatshot and he wouldn't be big enough for this either. That only leaves Galaxy Shuttle, who also wouldn't make a good Haslab.
It's probably Star Saber w/ Victory Leo, at least based off of leakers. $200 is a big pill to swallow, but unlike Unicron, I don't see this guy being gigantic, just being a Commander + either another Commander or a Leader. I'll have to wait and see before doing any backing.
