I'm pretty much in the same boat. I went back and forth on whether or not I wanted to spend nearly $800 on something I have no interest in outside of the figures, and eventually justified it by convincing myself I needed all 5. But only two? I'm more than likely going to just pull the trigger and cancel I wonder if the cancellations will outweigh the gains on the final day. I don’t want it to fail. Just a thought, that’s all I wouldn’t be surprised if they do

I keep seeing people say "people actively rooting for this to fail". Genuine question; who is doing that? I know there are people who said they can't/are not backing it for whatever reasons, but I haven't seen anyone saying "HAHA I can't wait for this thing to not get funded!" or anything along those lines. I swear, I saw that almost verbatim towards the middle of the thread. That (and that psycho who kept bullying people for trying to explain the business reasons for why moving the tiers around was unlikely whilst calling them bullies) is why I only check the thread like once every several days to see if it’s funded or how close it is. I really hope this gets made. Unfortunately the figure I wanted most was Hulk, and that’s a pipe dream now.

So I am curious as to how close it would need to be for Ringside to order a batch to sell down the line. I certainly wouldn't expect them to order a thousand of these if it gets to 4,000 backers, but maybe if we get to 4,500? Thoughts?

I personally don’t see them dropping a quarter million on it Mattel could cover the cost upfront and RSC could pay when they’re delivered. No way Ringside could part with $250k for a whole year…They ain’t that big of a company.

I personally don’t see them dropping a quarter million on it that’s more than 1/4 of a million lmao 1,000 units at $400 each is $400,000, not including any shipping or taxes. It would be closer to half a million than it would be to a quarter of a million

The next 2 weeks after this week will be very interesting... my fingers are crossed and hope for the best at this point. I will not give up hope though it may seem like a very steep hill to climb stranger things have happened. After all it is a wrestling hobby where the most unpredictable things can occur.

There was quite a bit of "I hope it fails so Mattel learns a lesson" in the first half of this thread, with one guy inexplicably hoping that it failed specifically because it was WCW and WWE is superior, or whatever. LMAO. wwe fans can be insane. WWE fans don’t realise that if WCW never existed we would still be stuck in the early 90s type wrestling formula show and the attitude era would have never existed. Look at how stagnant WWE was for 20 years after WCW died

So cut your math in half and it’s about a quarter mil.

Stop making sense being negative! People will for sure be willing to drop even more on it after the recession fully hits.
