**** it...I'm opening that Jawa Elder.

Though I have a year to change my mind, so...there's that. Have any of your ordered more than one Razor Crest (I'm not asking to buy your Jawa, just curious)?

Definitely opening the elder.

That's not a knife. *This* is a knife.

Definitely opening the elder.

And I'm going to get a couple more retail Jawas to be around him getting ready to dig in to the sliced open egg.  Can't wait!

I just checked the numbers and was shocked to see the backer count at 17,800+!  And I’m definitely opening the Jawa Elder, too.

It’s about to clear 18k any minute.  Crazy.

Secretly hoping for a 20k unlock... seems like a good one could make it happen.

I'm already tempted to buy a second with all the figures included.  I think another figure would push me over the top.

Looks like we’re going to get 20k without the need for another unlock.

OMG, it's at 19,600+.  And there's still 38+ hours left until the campaign closes.

I’m really impressed with how many backers this ended up getting.  A true testament to the popularity of The Mandalorian!

Past 20k now.  Since we just flew 3,000 past the 5th unlock... I doubt it will happen, but Hasbro could make an awful lot of people happy if they announced a 20k unlock on Mando Monday even though it’s already achieved.

Yeah, that would be pretty great, but I doubt it'll happen. Still, I'm really excited that we got all the unlocks...I was happy with the base product as it was.

I wonder if this will surpass the the Haslab Sentinel project? That was 21,900 or something like that at the end. We're a little more than 1k away right now. Still, it must be a bit eye-opening for Hasbro to see a Vintage Collection item within striking distance of a Marvel Legends item since that line is like printing money (from what I gather).

Last day to get in on the RC and it looks like the final tally will be over 22,000.  That is absolutely amazing!

I hope this is a wake-up call to Hasbro to invest more into the Vintage Collection as a whole.

Or more new 3.75" stuff - I'll take 5POA if its new and cool.  Crank out a ton of new figures from the Mandalorian in 3.75" and I'll buy them.

I don't want 5 POA figures anymore, because for over 15 years, Hasbro has proven they can give us better articulation and better sculpts than that.  I also would like some more Sequel Trilogy figures added into the mix of Mandalorian, OT and PT figs.

I believe that the fans are showing Hasbro right now that there is a demand for high-quality Star Wars figures.  As of right now, there are 22,198 backers of the Razor Crest and the Marvel Legend Sentinel had 21,193 backers.  Marvel is a cash cow for Hasbro and not arguing the quality of the Sentinel, the Razor Crest is larger, more detailed and the same price.

I believe the future is bright for The Star Wars Vintage Collection as a whole because of this!

Almost 24k. And here I was doubtful we'd hit the 5th unlock.

Wonder how many were bought as extras for express intent of being re-sold?
