    Wow. I didn't back this. These images look good. I'm all in for Dearhsaurus... Wondering what the aftermarket looks like about now.

    -Jan mini
    -Smaller sword for Saber
    -Gap fillers for the cannons (they've done gap fillers for some things)
    -Pipo and Holi (I mean it wasn't incredibly fantastic but they did do a transforming Wheelie for SS86 Grimlock)

    Has this guy backed it?
    Can anyone confirm?
    He’s a major source of negativity

    Did you even back it? I'm gonna guess no with all the bitching you've done, so please get the fuck out because some of us want to enjoy the funny space swordsman thank you very much!

    People complaining about a crowd funded project that is made to order and that they didn’t even back :lolol 

    Like it’s just embarrassing. You’re just complaining to the sky at this point

    Core class sized Rescue team (so they’re more in scale) and a larger sword blade. Of course that’ll probably be a $200 upgrade kit.

    Yeah after watching victory recently I’d love if the rescue team was core class or small deluxes. Not something I expect from an upgrade kit but more wishful thinking

    I could see core ratchet for pipo, with new engineering that allows for the front of the van to hang above the head it could work.

    I never buy gap fillers or use ones that are included in sets I do buy, but the cannon fillers actually look really good. I'll definitely buy those depending on what I do with Victory Leo.
    I always thought this 'you have to buy it/vote/do X in order to complain' logic was kinda dumb, I mean maybe they didn't back it because of their complaints? (I'm not defending any particular complaint, not even sure which one this was referencing, just never liked this line of logic being used to dismiss complaints.)

    I would question what the point of them being here, a year later, still posting the same complaints would be. The backing period has been over for over a year. What is the logic of them still posting the same stuff about a project that they didn’t care enough to back?

    I would guess the only purpose would be to try to make the people that did back it and have been waiting 13 months for it feel bad that they backed it…

    Did anybody else get an email from Hasbro today checking up to see if you verified your shipping address yesterday?

    I understand what you’re saying when it comes to mainline retail releases because it’s fully within your right to not buy a figure for legit reasons. Vote with your wallet and all that. Like this will dissuade future products being made that have the issues that made you not buy it in the first place.

    But a crowdfunded project that’s made to order? Like this product is already funded (successfully). There’s no point in complaining because it’s already being made ONLY for people who wanted it. Like complaining about it now makes no sense (maybe during the campaign duration to explain why you’re not funding it) but like that ship has long sailed. This is a product made specifically ONLY for people who want it. Not mass retail. It’s not getting another run after this one and will most likely never be seen again.

    If you don’t actually own a product and use it then compared to people that actually do have the product it’s always going to be a less valid opinion. Especially with a crowd funded campaign made to order item. The only people that should be in here are people who actually want it

    How about something less controversial? Anyone wanna talk about unpaintable plastic and/or CHPS? Yellowing, maybe?

    Ok our topic for today: It’s 11/29 guys! Hasbro asked me to make sure my address was correct 11/28. Why haven’t I got my shipping notification yet?!?!?!? What was the point of a deadline yesterday if they haven’t even packed my order and sent me the tracking number?
