    They’ve been doing small spikes every so often… but I guess we’ll see how many are added tomorrow : ) : )

    I heard some say they did and that is what caused the spike in sales. That seems logical since this ended in places like Australia. To be honest I don't know.

    Someone last night also indicated that a couple of other international vendors still had open orders, so I suspect there are quite a few that haven’t been added. I was anticipating today as well for the ones other than TT

    They have but apparently yesterday Australian (I believe) pre orders ended so I figured it would get added now.

    So we are 317 backers away of hitting 19,000. We are so close everyone on having Haslab Victory 100% funded. Let see if this will go out with a bang! Victory Saber himself is fully funded, but what I ment 100% fully funded is we would have not only Victory Saber funded, but we have all three tiers unlocked and funded. Update we only had 317 left until, but we lost several backers and it made it only to 367 backers away from 19,000.

    It's only a prominent figure in one culture however. Western audiences were introduced to him in robot heroes with no real way to learn about the character as the interwebs were new and lacking, and IDW's use of the character. Which to be honest isn't something I would go "zomg who is this?"

    I like this as it shows how versatile HasLab can be. It doesn't need to be massive items. It can be, we want to do a limited run of a character and no one wants to carry it or have it as an exclusive.

    If that were the case we might get 30k backers, that would be cool

    Ok we either have a bunch of cowards or someone is playing with the numbers. It went from 18,633 back up to 18,642.

    Here's a crazy future JG1 idea. What if Road Caesar was composed of Blacker--a voyager class, and the other two as deluxe class weaponizers. This way you could have Blacker as just the head and torso and by splitting the others into components have them be both the arms and legs?

    I'd want the Road Caesar team to be accurate to the anime, so probably juggling around where the team lands in combined mode would undermine that show accurate look.

    As long as it doesn't look like Animated SafeGuard.

    Everyone is talking about JG1 getting released for retail, while here I am hoping JBW gets the same treatment!

    I'm surprised hasbro doesn't make a few hundred extra to sell after release at a slightly higher price!! They would definitely sell out quick!!
