    He looks awesome. And for $180, he's pretty affordable. I'm glad that Victory Leo is included as a base and isn't one of the backing goals like we were speculating, because knowing we missed out on the full package would have sucked. Although now I'm wondering what the other bonuses will be.

    It seems to me that they're referring to Saber as Star Saber, at least in the stream so maybe the V-Jet description is for his super mode suit. Besides, I think we all know people would be more interested in the robot mode height rather than alt mode length and it's more likely that's what Hasbro is talking about.


    He's going to fit right in on this shelf.

    I wasn't going to be interested for the $300 to $400 people expected. I don't have a connection to Star Saber in Fiction really. BUT at $179 that's almost just Commander Class and this looks really really great for a Commander Class. I'm really considering it.

    I'm really curious what the next two stretch goals could be.

    -ZacWilliam, can't be another full figure, right.

    Man, I love Haslab but this looks pretty bad. I see GAPS, hollow parts, proportions look off. This should be released in retail this project looks to consumer based to be coming from HASLAB.

    Seriously, they have the backing of the Haslab platform and it has hollow gaps all over the place!? Wtf. Not even Retail commanders have massive hollow sections sticking out. WTF.

    I don\'t have any knowledge or awareness of who this guy is.

    With that said, it is a giant frickin transforming robot that seems to be a better value than the MP Star Saber version.

    What am I missing here?  I\'ve been selling the bulk of my Transformers and I may get this for the desk at home.

    They could've done Star Saber as a commander, but the issue would be what do you do with Victory Leo? I honestly think Haslab is the only way we get a decent Victory Leo

    To the people complaining about the hollowness keep in mind this might not be final products.
