    I just don't see any logic in the idea that Takara would open orders and only one day later send their numbers to Hasbro. Simply from a data entry stand point that theory is rather silly.

    Well I certainly picked the wrong morning to stay off the internet. First this passes the funding goal and Hasbro reveals Mutant Tigatron before officially revealing regular Tigatron.

    Imagine if takara made an mp kup that didn't come with the snack case. Third party kups had it but only 1 official. You wouldn't be disappointed? There's your logic in a slightly different situation. LuLz

    I don't bet on Takara. I have the Fans Toys version, and that didn't have a snack case. It did come with the target master guy which I'm sure Takara would have left out to release him a second time with the guy like they did with Hot Rod.

    To anyone: Do we have an actual statement saying third tier is a shield? Asking for one of those I bought for as they have not found any said documentation confirming. Only a picture with a visualized one...

    We seem to be getting a rather steady amount of backers now... not a huge rush, but fairly steady... must be that crowd that was unwilling to back until it was funded...

    That is true, but I still hope we do end up getting the shield. I think we’ll get the gun though, but not sure about second or third tier.

    I'm wondering if they'll do a big thing on Friday where they reveal Kingdom Wave 4 and make a big announcement about Star Saber funding and show off the shield as the third tier (again, assuming the shield is the third tier). It would round out a full week of TF reveals, and I just got an email from BBTS advertising the deluxe wave 4 of Kingdom so it certainly seems like they're ramping up for an announcement.

    Did you forget that no one has been charged a single penny yet? They don't charge till the 10th so you can certainly back now, if not first day

    I was thinking they’d announce that it hit goal today honestly. Anyone know from previous Haslabs did they announce it on the day it hit or a different day?

    Yeah, I imagine the Japanese orders going live helped, as Japanese fans would be a fairly sizable chunk of the people with Nostalgia and whatnot for the character. So I'm not surprised that after that started, we hit our mark.

    I'm hopeful for a FFF this week...

    At the bare MINIMUM they can congratulate us on reaching "funded". They didn't do much online to promote it along the way, but a little pat on the back and a "keep the momentum going for these exciting tier rewards!" would be nice.

    Also, BBTS has preorders up for kingdom w4. Maybe show off the rapidly selling out golden disk line too.
