Re: TF Fanstream Jan. 30th. The next HASLAB will be revealed.
Would have loved to get him, but at that price it's a big no. I'll stick with my original. Now for a month and a half to resist the urge to buy him...

Will look great on a shelf with my original Takara set.

They specifically told people to join Premium to get free shipping on this item during the webcast. But they didn't say that included Canada.

Can confirm the free shipping applies to Premium members in Canada too. Not my membership; it's from a friend.

To be fair they are already asking $70 more for Omega Prime over Victory Saber. That alone accounts for most of the increase. However they have also increased the cost of shipping.
If they are offering free shipping to Canada for Premium members then it is worth getting Premium for all the benefits PLUS the added benefit of free shipping for Haslabs. I am probably in on this one and definitely for the GI Joe Classified one. So if free shipping applies to both, it will probably be a savings of over $50US which would make Pulse Premium worth it for me (in Canada) for the first time.

Did they actually back Omega Prime?
Just wondering if they did the whole process and free shipping applied all the way through since that is the screen before taxes are applied and I wonder if Pulse ends up "correcting" the shipping.

Re: TF Fanstream Jan. 30th. The next HASLAB will be revealed.
Well back to the grind of daily tracking a Haslab. Surprised they did one so early in the year, but I think that is a good idea. Spread them out more over the course of the year instead of trying to cram them all in to the last quarter.
Here we go.....
Omega Prime:
4,857 / 10,000 (less than 24hr into the first day)
48.57% of funding goal with 43d 16h left.
A good start. I thought it might be farther along than half way by now. However this should cross the finish line no problem. It is a Prime and one that hasn't been redone since the original (not counting 3rd party or the terrible Encrore reissue).
Also now that it is a Haslab this will probably be the only time we get this toy for another 10+ years.

The shipping cost stayed the same for me, at $30 USD. The increase is just from the $70 USD price difference plus the extra $10.50 USD in tax.
If you're getting two Haslabs then you're already saving $10 from the shipping on them with Premium so it's definitely a good deal.
With free shipping, Omega Prime's price is $287.49 USD or $385.06 CAD. An under $50 increase over VS is more reasonable.

So it definitely is free shipping to Canada for Haslabs now with Premium? I just want to find out for sure from someone who actually backed from Canada (as a Premium member) before I go in on Premium myself.
If true I wish they would have done that with Giant Man last year. I was so tempted but they wanted almost $50US for shipping and that made the price over $400 Canadian after everything. At the time I just couldn't pull the trigger, which I kind of regret now, but if I didn't have to pay that nearly $50US shipping I would have jumped in for sure. Of course Giant Man was not as big a want for me as Omega Prime.
