It's now at the point where collectors know it's going to happen and don't want to miss out.

Mad numbers now, 50% over target.
7587 of 5,000 backer goal | 14 hours to go
Shall we have a book on if it makes 8K or not?

I bet this was a case of Star Wars fans groaning and hoping it wouldn't get 5000 because then the completist urge would force them to buy it.

So as you'll have seen by now the Sail Barge got funded, and then some: Mad numbers now, 50% over target. 7587 of 5,000 backer goal | 14 hours to go Shall we have a book on if it makes 8K or not? I forgot to check today till now to see what the final total was: www.hasbrolab.com/8810 of 5,000 backer goal **** me, just shy of 9K! That's amazing! So what next for Haslab? More Star Wars? GI Joe? Transformers? |

To put this into context, this got approximately 3 times the numbers that Grand Max did, which we know made 2K easy but didn't get 3K.

This may be the path forward for Titans from here on, now that TRU is dead.
Beyond that, I can't really see this as a good match for Transformers, at least not in a conventional way. Any bigger or more expensive than Titans already are, and I think people will lose interest.
TFs aren't really suited for massive complete playsets, since there's no consistent scale. So, something like an Ark playset seems unfeasible. Maybe bigger Masterpieces?
Going forward in an unconventional way, Maybe this could be a way to get new collector lines, or new additions to older lines?
A new wave of TFA? A new line of Beast Wars? Sign me up.
Maybe the same applies to Joe. Instead of a new giant USS Flagg playset, they use it to fund a new line?

Probably not - that'd make too much sense.
Speaking of which, I've finally gotten around to looking at the site itself, and, of course, they only ship to the US. Of course. Which makes this totally useless for a lot of us here.

It's... I dunno.... It's alright, but...
looks a bit small. Cramped for the figured. Seemed larger in the movie. More floors.

I'd happily lose the Bastian and electronics to bring the price down to something reasonable.
Had it been in Titan price range I'd jump on it.

I watched the Hasbro Pulse reveal. Loved how the marketing guy pointed out it can only be ordered on Hasbro Pulse for US and Canada fans only. Er, maybe don't stream your announcement to international fans then? That was half an hour of my life wasted.
It looks very nice indeed, but not $350 nice. Still think it's mad that Haslab doesn't offer payment plans (especially during a pandemic).
Fans were urged during the live stream to army build Sentinels. Er, it's $350.
I agree with Jetty. I would have bought it at TF Titan price. I don't buy many Marvel toys (I am more of a comics fan) but could go for a giant daft Sentinel.
