Um, hello? I'm right here!  

 

Hi!

 

The HeroQuest project is in that boat a bit. Now, HeroQuest was a different HasLab beast, but it failed to meet its last 3 (I think) tiers. HeroQuest had about 10 tiers, with extra quests and minis along the way. The final tier was a dragon mini and a quest book written by Joe Manganiello. Alas, it didn’t make it, and we were sad.

Well, as the ship date got closer, Hasbro announced that they were including that last tier anyway. Huzzah! Much rejoicing! It probably had something to do with Joe himself pushing Hasbro to release his quest, and again, HeroQuest was different from the start. It’s also probably irrelevant here. But interesting to note.

 

400 to go and 12 hours. In what universe does this not hit all 3 tiers?

 

A universe where the Decepticons win.

 

Or the Dead Universe

 

The one where all international orders are in fact already in the total, and there's a server crash on pulse (like, the building catches fire and melts all the servers), preventing any more orders from being added for the next 12 hours.

 

The one where those "stick it to the corporate types" win and they suddenly get 10k to back out of their orders to "teach em a lesson"

 

Less than 400 to go. Feel incredible joy being able to back something like this for once.  

 

Sooooo, what will we argue about when this gets past 20,000 backers? Maybe we can argue about scale or something.

 

Some people may dislike the idea of crowdfunding, but it’s incredibly heartening that almost 20,000 people came together and supported this out of a shared love for the character and design. We all made this possible.

 

I can imagine there was probably some contractual reasons between them and Joe as well, but that’s awesome they went and included it!!!

Man, where’s that big addition from Takara numbers already! I’m not too nervous, but this is suspenseful!  

 

Even if it doesn\'t break the last Tier, I already got Steakout and the other guy, so honestly no real loss on my end. 

 

360 to go.

 

Ok. I broke down and placed my order.

 

I think we can agree-gap fillers and a few QOL upgrades WILL be coming, but it would be nice not to NEED a 3rd party shield but i already know someone out there...should be obvious...is making a die cast replacement blade for star saber XD

 

I really hope it reaches Tier 3, I really want that shield

 

Only 362 left!

 

If people still don't think the shield will get funded at this point they're not paying attention.

Oh no we lost two sales! IT'S DOOMED!
