I am so happy. After last nights Ahsoka episode then this fully funding, it has been a great couple of days for Star Wars fans!
Congrats to all! Would love to back this if I could- if I could make payments or they didn't charge right away- but hey, it's probably best not to open up that can of worms! I've been a Black Series collector other than a few favorite characters in TVC, so I gotta be good. But I'm happy for my TVC collectors!
Now that this was a success, hopefully Hasbro will retry another Black Series HasLab that's better handled than the last one!
Sweet, so stoked to have all the tiers locked! I thought I read somewhere that Hasbro mentioned they would do Chopper & Sabine on mural cards if these guys all made the cut - is that true?
Im in for two of these just to get an extra set of the figures to keep carded. Going to try and sell off the "al la carte" ghost to recoup the $$$.
Definitely really happy this thing was successful! That does well for future Haslab TVC stuff.

That is true, we are going to get Sabine and Chopper based off the S4 cardback now that Zeb is funded.

As a separate item to purchase, but yes. I’m betting as a Pulse exclusive like the recent Hisstank Fire support team 3 pack is meant to add on to the Hisstank Haslab. Not a bad thing to do for successful Haslabs. Gives them a chance to add in items we begged for during a campaign but weren’t planned or possible to add.
The floodgates have opened, nearly to 18,000 now since the last tier unlocked. Always funny how so many don’t back until either the last minute or until all is unlocked. The earlier everyone can back the quicker everything gets unlocked. Oh well, it’s a smashing success now!
I just hope that getting orders in for Sabine and Chopper isn't a total nightmare. I'd like to think they'll send out early access links to Ghost backers and limit purchases based on how many you backed, but I doubt it.

I know it doesn't work this way, but I would love for Hasbro and the factory to have the foresight, and production capability, to make Chopper and Sabine in both formats at the same time. The Haslab version (art cardback) and the regular retail version (photo cardback).
Get started with the regular retail version production as close as possible to the art cardback version (most likely Exclusive). That way they get them all out of the way at once and hopefully enough lead time to get a good estimate of how many they realistically need to make.
As I said, I know that isn't how it works and they'll probably just produce 10% more (if feasible for the MOQ) than the final number of Ghosts ordered and just sell out whenever they sell out.
18,281 right now.
I was going to order this damn thing but Hasbro decides they’re going to get everything I preordered months ago all in at the same damn time. I’m happy for everyone that wanted this and ordered but is it really too much to ask that they launched these kind of things when people are getting their tax returns instead?

They are doing better in not overlapping Haslabs now. That really hurt several projects a few years back. A lot or crowd funding campaigns already take advantage of tax refund season so I wonder if they are consciously staying away from that time period? I agree the timing for so much shipping right now hasn’t been ideal. Even still they are struggling with consistency. It’s very much feast or famine still and that’s not good when they have a Haslab going.
@buttmunch Not at all. It came down to Boba Fett/Jabba’s Throne Room or the Ghost for me. I have the Sail Barge, so my choice was made back in 1983! Hopefully Jazzwares and Mission Fleet both have Ghost at least as cool as their Millennium Falcons were. Still I am happy for everyone that was able to get their orders in. I hope we are ever so close to that eventual Haslab DeathStar Playset!
Done! Good job collectors! Star Wars community is 3 wins for 5 HASLAB projects. There were a few dips at the end with cancellations, but it came back up. We'll see what CANPRIME's final numbers are.
Two days til we find out if the Marvel team was paying attention.

3 for 3 for TVC! These Haslabs just show how strong the love for the classic scale is. The Black series has been fine but this is the sorely ignored scale that continues to prove the fan base is strong.
Final Ghost update:
21,526 / 8,000 (+6,294) 269.08% of funding goal.
Well that was great! I was a bit worried that it wouldn't make 20,000 backers, but I should have trusted the numbers. Glad to see it get so high. That makes it the most successful Haslab at the $500(+) price point. (total number of backers)
Now bring on Giant Man!!!
I will say that doing back-to-back-to-back Haslabs is not that much better than concurrent Haslabs. There is only slightly more time to collect funds and while better, it isn't that much better. Especially now with the marketplace getting so saturated with large crowdfund items from different companies.

Indeed! 3 3/4" Star Wars figures is where it all started for most of us I imagine, you can't beat that kind of nostalgia. These TVC Haslabs have been a dream come true for me, and I really hope they continue doing these. A yearly TVC Haslab would be perfect!

Thanks for all the updates man, I appreciate the effort! I feel bad for the folks that are jumping right into the Giant Man crowd funder, thankfully I'm not feeling the need to jump in on that one.
