    So when should we expect the Takara numbers to be added?

    I see that we got the shield funded. I assume that now we are all having a civilized discussion about how happy we are and not some random infighting, right?

    Yeah, this is something I don't get about update people. Most of the TFA toys were great... What would you want from them getting updated? Cybertron's the same way, I can think of only a handful of toys from that line that could really benefit from updates.

    That said, my memory is hazy but I thought CN did have some rights over the TFA designs, in a similar vein to how Paramount gets money from movie toys. Hasbro owns the characters and brand, but CN owns the Derrick J Wyatt designs. So you can get a new Bulkhead, for example, but he will be G1/Prime styled (like Lugnut).

    Who thought it would be a good idea to sell an Optimus Prime with a woman full on showing panties on the box. Feels like something that should’ve never made it passed the ideas stage.

    Well, in honor of getting full tiers, I decided to throw on a 3rd order. One for me, one for my friend that's a little short until next week, and a spare for resale when I feel like it.

    I'm REALLY looking forward to this one!! Now, I just gotta see if my trendline forecast of 22789 gets hit by midnight!

    I missed a few pages... are they waiting for the official end to add in the JP orders? Doesn't seem like enough backers to account for all the TT and e-tailer orders...

    Like I said earlier, proper scaling and universal 5mm compatibility would be great additions. Even if it's not in the exact style of the show, updated TFA figures could still get the idea across by having trademark large chins and slightly exaggerated proportions.

    Well I was gonna use my fathers but he's in a bad mood and changed his mind. Which really sucks bc I could of returned some of my purchases this morning had it gone on more. I know he's gonna be 400 if I don't get him now but dad drove to and from Maine this weekend I think he just doesn't get it before I could explain he hung up.

    Anyways I really wanted this I saved the money on my card but it was yanked off by the time then dad said he would help but itd be tomorrow then hung up. Figures

    Does it matter?

    Those who wanted it will get the full package now.

    I'm happy to get all three tiers.

    I'd love that. Of the three I'm getting, one is first day, the other a couple weeks later, the 3rd is today. It would be cool to see that spread in numbers.

    .
    and an incentive for the first 20,000 backers would be, maybe a discount on the next crowdfund project or a special Tier 4 surprise.
