Are we defining big here as 'more than eleven'?

We should be saying 'Net gain' rather than gain as we don't know how many people backed out vs how many opted in...
It still needs to be pulling in well over ten times those numbers each day to succeed.

I think 7k is the key here. Less than a thousand to go it suddenly feels more real and people will start pulling the trigger.

This is what I was expecting a week ago, but I suppose they're banking on using the Comicon weekend hype to get the last 1200.
So it's getting closer to decision time. I think I'm out. I'd have been in had this finished in August as planned, but I'm feeling a bit saturated at the moment toy wise and lumping £600 on this isn't going to make me feel any better. Two years time no doubt I'll be kicking myself, but really this would only ever sit in its box in the loft because it's too big to go anywhere else.

It's too expensive. Too big to put anywhere. And frankly, in my humble opinion, does actually look as good as it should. I love the the the idea of it, but... it just doesn't look good enough.

Better off buying it now and selling it in two years if you still feel uninspired! |

You're right; doubtless it'd be an investment that would at least hold its value, but I'm just not feeling it.

I am wondering how much buyers remorse I will have in 2021. Nearly double the price of MP44, though I do not regret that at all!

No pineapple on a pizza for me!
I see that the Earthrise toys go up on Pulse this weekend. Prospective buyers have been encouraged to back Unicron while they are there, going by the PR blurb.

if they can add that much extra value at no extra cost it's practically an admission that it was, and may still be, over-priced. And throwing these in a week before the extended deadline? I smell panic... |

Someone somewhere must have realised some added value was required. Going by the boost after Other Retailers were added it seems like extra articulation for fingers has excited the masses!
