I noticed that they accept PayPal now. Anyone know if you can do PayPal’s pay in 4 payment plan? That might be something worth advertising if that’s an option. I know payment plans have been long requested for Haslabs to break up that big payment.

Oh man...if so, I might get a third! And if the final number seems like it's going to be low, I'll get a fourth to sell to all the FOMO dudes who are looking for "a fair price for a Cantina for my son."
(It won't be cheap)
@schizm Yeah those kind of mini drops happen during all campaigns so it isn't all that surprising. It only really is a worry when it does start to drop the numbers over a longer period of time (a day, a week, etc). Still going forward every day is always preferable.
Here we go:
TVC Cantina:
6,170 / 8,000 (+134) 77.13% of funding goal with 10d 19h left.
I actually don't know that it's gonna make it. This might squeak by...but I don't know. I want the Tonnika Sisters. I want the other aliens too, but I know they're not happening unless some insane miracle happens. So now that just leaves me pondering dropping $400 for two figures. This isn't a good campaign.
@detrimental-fig look at it this way, you can spend $400 and get them with a cantina or you can spend $400+ on them without a cantina. If this squeaks by, they’ll be some of the rarest figures and easily command $200+ each.

Are you saying people should consider aftermarket value surrounding this Haslab? How dare you sir!!!! 😀
Can you imagine what the Tonnika sisters will go for if this thing just crosses the finish line? $200+ each is probably conservative. Hell the whole Cantina itself. Look at the numbers for some of the lower backed Haslabs on the secondary market and you can see prices have gone up around 5 times, or more, the original price (Unicron, Khetanna). Hell even some of the later Haslabs are starting to creep up. The Sentinel and Razor Crest are going for double, or more now and Galactus and the Skystriker go above original asking price easily.
This set will do really well on the secondary market if it funds, and even more so if it funds in the 8,000-10,000 range. I would consider funding it just on that basis if I had the extra funds, but I am waiting for the Classified Haslab and maybe the ML and GB ones later this year.
Here we go:
TVC Cantina:
6,252 / 8,000 (+82) 78.15% of funding goal with 9d 18h left.
Got the new Leia today and am not that impressed with her faceprint. Carrie's features are dark and I don't know why they always so lightly print. Also, she's slightly looking up, which makes sense, but ugh!
Haven't opened her yet because I'm hoping I'll find one with a face I like better.
TVC Cantina:
6,341 / 8,000 (+89) 79.26% of funding goal with 8d 19h left.
Have to believe there are at least 1700 last minute/fence sitters to get this over the top.
I really only care about the Tonnika Sisters for the figures, so if it hits any tiers the main benefit to me is more figures to flip.

I almost never consider buying something just to flip it, but part of me thinks I should get two of the basic offering instead of one of the deluxe, figure out how many alcoves I really want once I have it in hand, and then flip the rest piece by piece - especially if this stays under 10,000 units. I think the percentage of collectors who want the whole Cantina setup and will then sell the Sisters is going to be a low - those figures carded are going to be scarce if this doesn't hit bigger numbers by the end.
my Target seems to have had an empty peg for TVC for about a month now 🙄
@goldbug I can send some of my Target’s Landos if you’d like 😆 He’s been the only constant in the toy aisle over the last couple years. General Lando has been the one for Black Series too. I fear it will take the death of a Billy Dee to get them cleared out.

Sadly you are probably right. That or something happens and they will never use Lando again (ala Cara Dune).
Anyway here is the Canada Day update (Happy Canada Day to my fellow Canucks):
TVC Cantina:
6,434 / 8,000 (+93) 80.43% of funding goal with 7d 18h left.
Well here we go. Final week of fudning and still a bit of a ways away. However it is more than close enough to fund, at least in my opinion. The only question will be the tiers.

Ha! Yours still has some? With the clearance of the whole lot of the previous waves my Target did get rid of him.
Now I'm in distribution purgatory
