Hoping for an unexpected finale... I really want those last two - far more than I want another Greedo.

I noticed a subtle shift in Hasbro's position today on the tier figures via Steve Evan's Instagram:

"If not unlocked, a tier figure might still be made in the future, but it's not guaranteed.  Unlocking a tier in HasLab means that the figure's tooling would make future reuse in the line more likely."

Nice to see them cover their butts and admit even if they don't unlock there are still ways they can release these figures...  I'd gladly pay $40 for a carded 2-pack of Nabrun/Ariel if needed. #dumbOTcollector


Also, Hasbro finally getting off their butts to do a little more promotion -

I'm guessing they've already done a ton of development work on these figures so they'll want them made one way or the other.  I'll certainly pay $18 for an all new cantina alien.

If this follows closer to The Ghost, which had three known tiers (40%-15%-45%), then we'd see something like this:
---Cantina: 4800 (40%), 1800 (15%), 5400 (45%).  That would put us at 12,000 (no unlock for tier 2/3 :().

Just capturing the number for posterity/future use - last night at 11pm ET as the clock ticked into the final week...  6599.  So, if we round to 6600, that's

4800 first week - 1800 middle section - ? last week

It's kind of crazy how closely the math/curve is following the curve from The Ghost.  I guess we'll see what happens this last week.


6841 this morning so we picked up 242 overnight...  1159 to fund!

This is the second Haslab I've been on the fence about (the first being the Khetanna which I did not back.)

I will probably back this, but I won't do the deluxe.  I wonder how many people are still on the fence like me?

In the initial excitement after the official reveal, I was a firm Yes, but over time my enthusiasm has cooled to Probably No. I’d still love the Tonnikas but the rest of it doesn’t do too much for me. Maybe I will get caught up in the FOMO again by the end, but it’s hard to say right now. I hope it funds as many tiers as possible though regardless.

Day 10 - 4979
Day 17 - 5708
Day 24 - 6458
Day 25 - 6599
Day 26 - 7026, 5+ days to go...

974 to fund
3974 to Greedo
6974 to Nabrun
9974 to Ariel

Hopefully there are enough old man collectors with disposable income and/or last minute speculators looking to cash in Wuher/Tonnikas to push this thing to Nabrun at least...

It’s 142 higher than the number you just posted a half hour ago.  Maybe another batch of overseas orders?

Good man!

The way I see it, if you can afford it and aren't sure - grab one.  You can easily get your money back out of it later, and break even at an absolute minimum. 

7,368 / 8,000.

I said a long time ago that if they made the Tonnika Sisters I would buy them.  Sucks that I have to spend $400 to get them, but I believe there will be a main line release of all these figures if the Cantina goes into production.

I wonder if Greedo makes it at this point.  Perhaps if they extended the timeline a week or two.  I don't see them doubling the numbers in the next few days to unlock everything.  At this point, I wonder how many more of these things they will do period.  It got funded, but just barely at this point with only a few more days to go.  While not a vehicle, this is one of the most iconic scenes in ANH and I would think between that and the Tonikka sisters, people would have gone nuts.
