    I was checking it like every 15min around that time and there was a solid 500 drop then normal increases

    It honestly surprised me when I read that people didn't think this would get funded.

    We aren't just seeing fans here, of which the JPG1 series has many (and I guess IDW as well), but also probably investors that saw what the aftermarket on these crowdfund projects pull.

    There will always be the uber-negative posters that hope everything official fails, but reality says they are the extreme minority.

    but why would they submit orders after only 1 day when they know that number will increase? The logistics don't make sense

    I always figured it'd get funded. Didn't know it'd be this fast though.

    If Takara did get 2k-ish orders on day one, I could see them passing the memo along to Hasbro just because seeing that big bump (and the project clearing the 11k mark) is GOOD NEWS that gets more eyes on the project. Even if they don't update daily going forward, why would you not put this good news out there?

    I'm not sure, I'm just spitballing. Takara opening orders just a day before a 2,000 jump is one of the most logical explanations I can come up with. It's the 29th of the month, no one's getting paychecks nor was there a reveal, nor was there advertising, nor is it a fomo thing cause we have a week and a half left.

    even though they've advertised for 3 goals would they add more? like if tier 3 is hit and and it's like 1000 over that. is there a history of something like that with haslab?

    Let’s say GO!

    I felt that there was no way this wouldn’t get funded but it’s nice that it finally got to 11,000.

    now just show us the tier 3 (shield) and we can go from there.

    Hasbro might have asked them to submit their orders as soon as they had enough to have the project funded in order to generate more hype, who knows.

    As someone else just said, maybe takara told Hasbro they got enough orders to get the thing funded, so Hasbro said hell yeah let's update this asap

    It's all a matter of data entry. Unless you let it back up too much, it's generally better to do data entry in blocks rather than obsessively enter every data point as it comes across.

    It's also more probable that 1 or more 3p vendors submitted their orders since a few of them have had orders open longer.

    There has been a question lingering on my mind will there be a mini sword for saber if not I would be slightly disappointed but not that much.
