Never let the truth get in the way of trying to discredit someone's opinion "Super small" You are missing the fact this isn't The OFFICIAL MOTU Snake Mountain set, that would put it at 250 easy.

How so? For the better or worse? Worse. $80 vs $400? The stage has some flashing lights sure and 2 figs but even with 5 figures $400 feels very exspensive now. You could buy 5 of those Snake Mountain sets for the price of this 1 crowdfund.

. [/quote]So your comment had nothing to do with the conversation you quoted, got it. [/quote]
It was in regards to the point you were making, and I was in agreement. You asked what if you can afford it but aren’t backing because you don’t think it’s worth it, to which the first part of my post said- It’s your money, spend it however you’d like. Meant to say it’s not your obligation to buy something just cause someone else is saying otherwise… who cares what Matt Cardona thinks sucks. If he wants it backed he can buy 3000 of them and stop talking about how others spend their own money. Shoulda said it like that instead of assuming it read the way my train of thought was implying. The rest should have been spaced and punctuated differently and wasn’t meant about you, but I see how that was poorly phrased. The remainder of that first bit and the post was in regards to the other stances on why people are deciding to back the project or not and that they only folks that should be saying any particular side sucks if this doesn’t happen are international customers that would but it if they had a financing option, otherwise everyone can make their own choice but have no reason to complain or assign blame to if it isn’t put in production.

Seems like it's back.
Maybe they were trying to hide the real backer number.

Worse. $80 vs $400? The stage has some flashing lights sure and 2 figs but even with 5 figures $400 feels very exspensive now. Yeah I agree it looks way more detailed, far more tooling I’d think for the details on the walls etc plus the intricacies of the hinges for the shell, gate etc there seems to be a lot more into it Interestingly they speak to the designer in pixel dans video snd he says it’s the playset “people have been asking for” and I agree. You can get this + they did greyskull for half the cost of the wcw stage. I’d be interesting to know how much the wcw stage would’ve been without lights. When you break down the tooling for the wcw stage, for example take the letters. That’s a W and a C mould, so the 2 moulds cover 6 big eye catching pieces. Compare that to the snake head snd body, the wolf head etc on snake mountain Thanks! That's all very logical and interesting to compare. Obviously there's a lot of variables and costs we aren't aware of but like you said in the Pixel Dan video for eg. Mattel also talked about... Box Art for Snake Mountain (SM): That art needs to be paid for and printed onto boxes vs a blank box (see new gen box for eg) Storage: SM needs to be shipped and stored at Mattel's expense! Store space may also be bought for SM vs wcw being shipped at customer's exspense! (see Funko destroying inventory for eg on storage costs) Marketing Costs: Non-comparable. WCW's early bird campaign was not explained properly (for wrestling fans) or promoted properly. Figure Cost: Mattel can make these at say $10 each max! Even with 5 figures that's closer to $350 for the stage with NO RING. People (Mattel) saying $200 worth of figures is full retail and the best marketing so far ;-) I'd also be interested to know how many hours wwe squad are into this project? Have they been paid for this work? Is it the same rate of pay motu team get? What sort of cash bonuses are involved for staff on this project? That should keep the page alive while we wait for backers :-)

Honest question. Do you have ANY idea how credit cards work? Do you even have one? Let me try to explain how this works.........again...... 1. I back the project on my Visa Card 2. Mattel pre-charges $400+ tax to my card 3. It sits in my "pending transactions" for 2-3 business days 4. It falls off my card, never impacts my balance, Mattel never actually gets any money 5. IF the project gets funded, they will charge my card "for real" and the charge will post and now I'm going to have to pay it off. Until the project gets funded Mattel gets $0 (ZERO, ZILCH, NADDA, NOTHING). I kinda hope you're trolling....because if I'm honest, your lack of understanding of how this works is pretty embarrassing. Listen big dog, I get that you are really upset the thing you backed probably isn't gonna get funded, however being intentionally obtuse about something so clearly obvious is not the way to take out those feelings of frustration. We have talked about it a lot in this thread, anger is a natural stage of grief. I know it's disappointing, I'm sorry for you champ I really am, but you see that stickied New Gen Crowdfund thread? Why don't you go back and read it since you weren't around then, see if you recognize any names. Then come back and try again with someone else who cares what you think is embarrassing. Also how could I have a credit card? I'm too poor to have one. Is this clown for real? My guy, it's 2023 and you don't even understand how a credit card functions.
