If the rumors are true that this is a $600 item, then I hope they consider backing and tier thresholds differently than they did for Razor Crest which was *only* $350. I think $600 is going to pull a lot of more casual fans, speculators, and fans without plenty of cash out of the mix on this one.
I guess the Transformers Unicron was in this price range and had a threshold of 8,000 backers, but they only ended up getting to 10,000. I think there is probably more upside with TVC Star Wars.
I think the threshold might only be 7,000 backers, and the tiers will be fairly tight, maybe in increments of 2000 backers?
I guess it all depends on how much they bundle in to the base package - extra figures, etc., and how much they try and stick in to unlock tiers.
I hope Hasbro doesn't get greedy on this and is able to make this program happen with sensible pricing, targets, value, etc.
