Apparently they added affiliate orders in one lump from global affiliates? So maybe Japan or Asia preorders?

It would REALLY have helped Hasbro from the getgo to say "hey, all those BBTS/TFsource/etc orders COUNT TOWARDS IT."

Any kind of crowdfunding --- the closer it gets, the more likely it is to succeed. In that respect I imagine they will dump those kinds of orders in over the next few days as well, if that's the case.

Even if Unicron gets produced, I hope they learn from this so many lessons for next time. It's been so terribly mishandled. I still hope he doesn't for ethical reasons and reasons like... not wanting to see this become the standard model for premium/special offerings.

Re: haslab unicron

Unicron may be joining Cookie Monster on his way to oblivion.

Okay, hear me out. Hasbro can salvage two projects by making a blue Unicron repaint as Siege Cookie Monster, and he has giant googly eyes above the chomping mouth in planet mode.

Re: haslab unicron

A mini (crappy) Galvatron and an alternate mustache faceplate are now part of the package.

Still, I don’t see the rush for them to conclude the crowd-funding period in a few days.

This or prepaid preorder models are the norm. These have been done for a while. No one wanted to flood tge market with stuffs for clearance sales...
