Anyone from the UK ordered yet? Yep, $15 shipping is a bargain. But obviously we may get hit with import duty. I'm grabbing another in the coming days. Every part of this campaign is gonna fetch a colossal amount on the secondary market. Not sure about the ring, it’s the least desirable and also the only piece Mattel have said they will likely make more of.

This surge is exciting, but man it’s making me realize how daunting this task really is. If you added literally double the amount of backers we already have, we would still be short of the base goal. We got a tall task WFers. I love you. In a few minutes, if you triple it we'll be at that goal pretty much.

Why are there 3 separate threads talking about the same exact thing? My thoughts the last couple weeks when three threads were up largely "critiquing" the original project

I would say to take out $45 for the stretch stuff since the price doesn’t go down if it doesn’t hit 7k or 8k. That brings you to $275 based on your estimates. I think those are pretty fair estimates. The stage is the wildcard. That’s what has me on the fence. I’m not sure it’s worth $90. If Mattel sold it normal, they’d probably sell it for $90-$100, but packed with probably a smaller ring and maybe a basic figure. Granted, you could also estimate Diesel and Macho Man around $35 each. It’s definitely something I’m considering backing now. Just gotta think about it some more. don’t think. just do. you’ll thank me later I’m still gonna think about it. That mentality was the biggest turn off for me the whole time

Funded or not though, Mattel has nothing to hang their heads about. Sure, they made some mistakes at first. But in the end, they played to win. I honestly thought they would just let it runs it course and fail. What a pleasant surprise. I just hope we can match their hail mary with one of our own and get it funded WITH Doink. I love you.

Theres only gonna be like 5k of these New Gen rings, and at least half of them are going to be in collector's personal collections. They'll be worth a fair bit IMO.

If we keep up the pace, we'll hit the 5,000 goal. We would currently need 220 a day.

don’t think. just do. you’ll thank me later I’m still gonna think about it. That mentality was the biggest turn off for me the whole time There’s a quote I really like… “It’s bad to do something just because everybody else is doing it. But it’s even worse NOT to do something just because everybody else is doing it.” In other words, forget all the supporters and naysayers reasons for doing it or not doing it. It’s up to you. Do you want it or not? In the grand scheme of things, supporting it is not a commentary of you giving in to one group of people or the other. And if you don’t get it, that’s fine too. Life will go on. For what it’s worth though… with the early bird special this thing is more than worth it. I don’t think you would regret it at all if you backed it and it got funded. And if it doesn’t, you’re right where you are now. I love you.

I'm gonna be backing it and will place my order later today.
Being in Canada though, after conversion shipping and customs this is gonna hurt bad. But when I think about how much this will cost on the secondary market after resellers get their hands on it, I'd rather take the lesser hit up front cause you know this is gonna probably double in price within a few months of release.

Then another 1,500 in the last 48hrs. These numbers are possible but still a long shot and even then we may still come up a little short

Whether it hits goal or not, Mattel higher-ups can’t be happy that they had to give for free around $50 of product just to entice buyers. They also changed the terms and conditions 3 times now. I wonder what’s coming next…
