Looks amazing though. Good luck to Hasbro getting it off the ground.

Honestly, even if I could justify to myself and her, I just don't have the funds. Already saving for new winter tires. Old ones are ready for the dump.

Re: haslab unicron

If you have an US address for shipping it is kind of ok.

They should have extended the crowd funding period for a few months more since we won’t see it for a year & a half at least... as it stand right now I couldn’t do it with a bunch of stuffs on preorders in August. Or if they had announced it a few days earlier I wouldn’t spend that much at TFCon lol

Re: haslab unicron

Could afford it I wanted to. Choosing not to... $905 for one figure? Which is marginally bigger than the $230 Fort Max? Hasbro knows they've got us by the short hairs for a movie-accurate Unicron.

And the crowdfunding... They're a huge corporation, not some indie dev 3d printing in their garage. They have the capital to finance this themselves, but would rather take your money now for a figure they're not even releasing for two years...

I'll wait for the half price KO. Would've been way on board if it was in the $500 range. This feels like a gouge, IMO.

All the power to those choosing to buy this, you have to right to spend your money how you please. But personally? Get bent Hasbro.

Are you trying to be funny or are you actually offended people don't want to give Hasbro nearly a grand for a single figure...?

That's essentially what broke me out of old FunPub sub service figures and other exclusives. I looked at Thunder Mayhem on my shelf and was like, FUCK! That's a half month's rent!

Pretty much this.

I'll wait for the YouTube videos in a few years and admire it from afar. Can't even entertain buying this without winning the lottery first.
