    If he's helping the Decepticons:

    Then he's just a traitor. He's abandoned the Autobot cause. That doesn't mean he's an evil Autobot. The idea that all Decepticons are evil and all Autobots are good is enforced by that writing.

    A question about backing HasLab. If I back 1 Saber now, can I back another Saber later?

    You can back up to five, IIRC, some now, some later. As long as the orders get in before the deadline.

    So you're opinion is more valid and it's okay to slam mine? I don't think so dude.
    You must have very little understanding of figure manufacturing to not realize how exploitative these prices are.
    Maybe do some research instead of being an emotional manchild who can't stand someone having a different opinion.

    Unicron was but at a later date. This might also be the case, seeing he is from
    Japan

    I mean, what are you pre-ordering?

    Retail items that will be around for about a year or two online? I mean I'd just cut those and just order again at a later date when they inevitably pack the warehouses of E-tailers. Cutting POs for exclusives is much dicier.

    But given keeping POs of retail items I can get later, or participate in a one time, One-and-Done item, I'd go with the latter.

    Hasbro doesn't sell Transformers in Japan, Japanese collectors have to wait for Takara Tomy to put up their portion of the Haslab campaign just like with Unicron

    Awful combined mode proportions but at least somewhat screen accurate. I'm sure it will be easily backed compared to Unicron.

    There's always "that guy" I know some costs have already been invested, but this is a great way to get products into fans' hands of characters who are riskier to mass retail. Everyone wins. Plus I think the product will be as good as can be since it's essentially a "sales pitch" to all of us.

    Exactly! I backed it asap. I pray for success and think the magnitude of (hopeful) success matters quite a bit here. We're not just buying Star Saber here, I think we're voting for Deathsaurus next year and hopefully a proper PowerMaster Optimus Prime and other JG1 renditions in the next trilogy.

    I here ya! I sold a ton of stuff on ebay and this project clocked in UNDER what I budgeted for. Very happy - I think you can make it work! You never know.

    I loved it as well, and for 300 it was just too much and too big for me to get, my family would've loved him and so would I but it was just not meant to be
