I don’t think it’ll really have a major impact. Hasbro conferred with the community they targeted that CM at and those people clearly didn’t put their $ where their mouths were since I guess people seemed on board then never showed up. That’s fine and Hasbro has to look outside Star Wars nerds for $, I just am not sure the communities are that strong.
Hell, Unicron is lagging and that’s a strong community internationally but in the US? Eh, maybe not so strong. I wonder where a GIJoe item would land, or Unicron had it not been so expensive (it’s a lot more than the barge numbers isn’t it?).
How many big things will Star Wars fans back too? The barge got by but I already have seen a lot of people saying they wouldn’t again because they feel Hasbro cheated them by not giving them absolute pristine boxes, or whatever. And I’ve seen loads of those people not just a handful here and there.
I’m not sure I’d back another too. I’d have to really care about what it is because honestly this barge is ok but I’m not that into it haha. I was happier with the tank honestly. Or the new skiff. 😕
