Get it now, or pay double from a reseller later.

From what I understand, you don't back it, you don't get it. Like if you don't invest you don't get the dividends.

Makes sense, don't have the funds now but was hopeful there would be a chance later on.

Really really sucks.

Man, so I've been in a fiscally tight situation as well, and I ended up having to cancel my HasLab order. But this thing (if getting made) is a MUST HAVE for me... so I ended up going with BBTS. I mean, it really really sucks that I'm essentially paying an extra $200 more than I would have normally, but this figure is too worth it to miss out. It really helps that they don't make you pay everything upfront, as well as supposedly still letting you do $4 flat rate shipping. I still don't fulling understand how TFSource does theirs, but I'm believe the shipping on Unicron will be completely free due to its price. I just think that because of how once in a lifetime this figure is, if you can and really want to, you should. I mean, over a full year is a good amount of time to save up, it's practically just $50 a month less on normal Transformer spending (or other stuff of course.)

I've heard that entire sentiment from more thsn a few people... Hell I have said it myself... Dammit.

Backed. :ic$:

To be fair though, $50/month only applys to BBTS, The metaphot doesnt work for the lump sum up front

Only 90 more needed.

News Credits: 439 · by **Sabrblade** » Sat Oct 05, 2019 6:53 pm

Now it's 80 left!

News Credits: 439 · by **Sabrblade** » Sat Oct 05, 2019 6:58 pm

73 to go!

I'm wondering if I should do the irresponsible and insane move to call my credit card company so that I add this Unicron to my debt pile?

We're reaching critical mass.

News Credits: 54 · by **Deadput** » Sat Oct 05, 2019 7:57 pm

As of this post only 8 more to go!

So any bets on if it makes it or not?

Stay on target!

What is the final result is 7999 but Hasbro say it MUST be 8K so it don't happen? By one?

_Cue Mr Hasbro himself taking out his own wallet to get one for himself._

I’ve never cheered so hard for the bad guys. If loving Unicron is wrong, I don’t wanna be right!

And then there were three.

The chaos bringer is coming.

As of this moment, 10:22pm on October 5, 2019, roughly 26 hours before the final deadline, Unicron has made it. Reaching 8,000 backers per the Hasbro Pulse number, this means that we can finally announce to much fanfare and excitement that he will go into production!

Unicron is the first Transformers Haslab project, and he has successfully reached his goal. He will now move into production for a January 2021 release date. He stands 27 inches tall in robot mode, 30 inches in diameter in planet mode, and features a host of extra features such as a ton of articulation, the Autobot shuttle, a mini Galvatron and Hot Rod, interchangeable chins, and more!

If you still want to place your order, head on over to Hasbro Pulse, any of our sponsors, Kapow Toys if you are in the UK, and EB Games or Zing if you are Australia to jump on the wagon and make sure you don't miss out!

Congratulations everyone! We did it!
