Which company does the payment plans? Is that BigBad?
technically any company, if you use Klarna and go through their app. they'd split it into 4 payments. it does have to be used like the last day or 2 though, because if they don't see any activity of hasbro taking the money, they'll cancel the temp card they give you
@spideyboy1111 The GI-Joe aircraft didn't meet a goal or two if I remember correctly.
I would only back this if it's reaches all the stretch goals. I don't believe that is possible at this point, so I'm out...
has there been a haslab that's not met all of it's stretch goals once funded? Typically speaking, once something gets funded, fomo kicks in and the numbers go up considerably. that's how galactus got his tiers unlocked for example.
I believe the G.I. Joe Skystriker missed its final goal.
I do think the Sentinel and Galactus set unrealistic expectations for Marvel HasLabs going forward. Even Giant-Man--which I think is a good idea and will fund--won't come close to the success of those projects.

Nothing will come close because they were released in a strange time when people were given free money and had a lot of free time so collecting and flipping was a thing to do. Now everyone is back working onsite mostly, free cash has dried up and the world has opened back up
As others have already posted, the Skystriker is the only Haslab that missed a tier unlock after funding. Poor Ketchup and Mustard we hardly knew ye!!
It is looking more and more like Giant-Man, if he funds, will be the next Haslab to not unlock all tiers (or possibly any) after funding.
Actually on that thought ^
What are your thoughts (everyone) on if Giant-Man funds but doesn't unlock any tiers?
Basically it has been all but confirmed that the tiers are built into the price (cost) so not getting any tier unlocks, or less than all of them, could be considered getting less value. Or I guess if you are hardcore "ripped off."
Does that get offset by the fact that it will be one of the lowest funded Haslabs and probably will have a much higher secondary market value after the fact? Or do you not care, what is in the base offering is enough?
In this case I wouldn’t care if all the tiers weren’t met
i just want this Giant Man
i had the previous BAF, and yeah I’ll agree it was top 3 for sure but it was dated asf
i would’ve been bummed if the Hell Charger funded without all the stretch goals
those 5 figures were worth the price tag for me, the car was just a bonus.
39% of people taking a poll said that this Giant Man was not needed because of the previous BAF.
as someone that collected that wave … that BAF needed an upgraded. It’s not as great as it seems. Gummy limbs and weird body proportions. It’s too small
I can't help but think if these things begin to have a lot of people padding the numbers with the intention of cancelling orders later, that we might ultimately end up having to either be charged when we back vs the end of the campaign or they eliminate the cancellation grace period. That in itself would probably hurt the numbers of future Haslabs.
I’ll keep 3 and sell off the other 7
Even if I’m stuck with them I could always customize them for blue suit, goliath etc
Ding Fang Foom probably won’t be a go if this can’t get made
a quinjet and x-bird are not really necessary
i funded two Super 7 thundercats cats liars and that ish was expensive. I think they reached the first two tiers. Shipping is $100 each which is crazy.
i don’t think Marvel has a play set that would be as enticing
EDIT curse Apple correct
Was just coming to share that myself! There's a second picture from a slightly different angle. Love love love seeing the two together!

I personally don't care. I wouldn't display him with Skrull or zombie face plates anyway, so they have no value to me.
Damn they look amazing together, that's a great set.
...I do have to wonder, the fact that they actually already have a painted sample of this in-hand does makes me think it was intended as a tier/package to show off together in person.
But the hell do I know about how early they get samples in before production, or any of their planning whatsoever.

outside of maybe a "essential" box set, im not sure what will. The Sentinel and Galactus had covid money on top of being massive fan favorites
i think this fan base is just too fickle, divided, and sending mixed messages... they lowered the price "still too much", they didn't include figures behind tiers "we don't want our figures locked behind pay walls" and now they're like "wasp and yellow jacket should have been tiers"
I just don't get it, one person told me today "if it was $300 and included 3 figure tiers, i'd have probably bought it"
I personally think tiers should only be used for "this figure we can't sell to retail, it's its only chance to get made" and they botched that up with last years non classic versions of Mephisto, Maddie, and Hellstorm...
i do wish instead of heads, we got like, Rick Jones and Jarvis, but i can see why the extra heads are important (to entice people to buy more than 1)
