2020 Haslab - TVC Razor Crest

[Jeff]

TVC Razor Crest will be the subject of the "Fan First Friday" this week.  Here is the press blurb they put out -

"On this week's Fan First Friday, Patrick and Chris from the Hasbro Star Wars team will be delivering all of the latest HasLab news about the Star Wars The Vintage Collection Razor Crest ship.

Most notably, the team will be revealing the first images and videos of the physical grey model! Catch it all this Friday at 11AM ET on Hasbro Pulse YouTube!"


Looks like we'll probably be past 10k at that point, so maybe they will announce a "bonus" unlock during the livestream?

9,850 as of 10 am ET. 

[Mister Skeezler]

Baby Yoda today maybe?

It'll definitely get past 10k during the next 30 days or however many are left, but since it's slowed I wonder if it'll reach any more milestones? They'd have to be pretty much amazing.

Does anyone remember what the final count was for the barge? 8k?

[Rob]

Yeah, it was just over 8k. 

[Jeff]

Does anyone remember what the final count was for the barge? 8k?

Barge topped out at about ~8800. 

This one is a bit different as ordering is open to places outside the US/Canada via deals Hasbro has with some international retailers.  Those weird "bumps" you guys saw in the numbers was probably Hasbro updating the totals taking into account orders from places like Zavvi in the EU/UK, etc. 

I think it can still probably make it to 15k-16k since it's still got a lot of time (and potential for Hasbro to open it up to additional GEOs).  I guess we'll see though.

[Rob]

Jeff is definitely going to be right, but somehow my brain remembers it as like 8,030 or something like that.  It's too bad the Pulse website only lists it as 5000 out of 5000 needed instead of keeping the actual total.

[Mister Skeezler]

Looks like we're about 25 away from baby Yoda.

[Jeff]

Jeff is definitely going to be right

Only reason I know is because I looked it up earlier this week:  JD Twitter: "The Barge campaign is over with 8840 barges backed!"

I looked it up because I made a bet with a friend that Hasbro would pull in more $ for this than the barge.  He thinks this will never sell as well as the Barge did (OT elitist! )

8840 Barges @ $500 each = $4,420,000

Going to have to sell 12,629 Razor Crest to beat that dollar amount.  6-pack of Surly on the line!

[Mister Skeezler]

I feel like the shipping box for this one will be more reasonable than the giant coffin the barge had, so probably some savings there? The Razor Crest seems like it breaks down a bit more.

We're getting a baby Yoda with the Razor Crest!

Good luck!

I thought I was passing on this, but with the potential of flipping Baby Yoda to massively reduce the price, now I'm going to be on the fence for a few weeks.

I thoughts the same, but this box will have to be 32--34" long unless there are more detachable components than the guns.

My guess is the TVC box by itself is 32" long, 16" deep and 12" high. This also assumes that the turbines ship detached and have a sturdy snap on like the foreword mandibles on the BMF.

[Mister Skeezler]

So the website has been updated with a "secured" for the Child. I kind of envision the Haslab team sitting around a board room table right now like "well, ****...we didn't think it would get this far."

[Jesse James]

I haven’t bought in yet but will be, to do my part to help Jeff win his bet.
