Very glad to see Hasbro upping their game again, on this vehicle for example and other aspects for the 3.75" collector.
The reveals for this, the upcoming figures, and the Sail Barge are staggering compared to what we saw the past 4-5 years... I can't remember the last time I was this hyped up and excited as a collector, fan, customizer, etc.
I have been very vocal about my dismay for Hasbro especially the past few years, and felt TVC was their chance to start doing things like they used to do - and it looks like they are at least going to try to get back to the glory days for 3.75" collectors again. I doubt will ever get back to the level it used to be, but things are finally looking up from my corner of the hobby.
As for the Sail Barge... I don't expect it will get 5000 backers - but it's a potential once in a generation type item so I have to support this thing. To me it reminds me of how mesmerized I was by the GI JOE USS FLAGG playset.
Overall, I feel like a little kid, all giddy with excitement. Hasbro's showing efforts again to win back the people who have been unhappy. I have missed this feeling and it's great to experience it again.
