I’m still leaning to RC = HasLab.
I know everyone keeps saying it’s a shoe-in to sell at retail but Hasbro doesn’t look at anything high ticket as a guaranteed seller regardless what it is. Look at the hobby as it stands... tank, transport, playsets, XWings... people wait everything out now if they get even a remote hint they can do so. I hear people are taking Falcons back to Target now that it hasn’t sold out. Higher price means higher risk to Hasbro. I think now if it’s over $50 And a fair sized box, they’re hesitant to shop it around to regular retail.
If it is Haslab it has to be something real special to interest me, and it may drive me to sell my Barge ultimately, if it is.
