I'm intrigued with the way they are doing the poll. I would have thought the simple thing to do is one vote per account. However this one vote every 24 hours until the 30th is kind of kooky. I wonder how that will skew the totals by the end. I really would love it if they would do a breakdown after the fact about how the voting went/changed from day to day. That would make it easier for us to see if there was a clear favourite, or if there was an early favourite but people changed their minds as time went on.
Well I just like that look. I also like the purple deco but don?t think it?s a good fit for the character. I like bravo too but like the idea of him being less flashy with the reds. I do like bravo over ?Alfa? lol who?s getting fired for that typo!?

However I am loving this line so I guess I'll take the "L" this time, and I'm sure I'll get it back somewhere else eventually.
I just can't justify that price. I hope he shows up at Amazon.ca eventually.

I just noticed that the blue ninjas 2-pack doesn't show up on Amazon.ca anymore. Wonder what's up with that.

I did pony up the cash for Kamakura, and hopefully won't mind the price when he comes around. That said, they've noticed a lot of pushback from consumers on the pricing, so maybe that will go well for us later on.

As it is I'm trying too hard to just focus on another crowdfunding product without missing too many Joes in the meantime, and covering preorders that are leaping months ahead. I'll have to do some circling back later on for sure.

Who's supposed to hit next, Mindbender at the end of the month?

Yea I think GS release dates are mindbender mid nov now, serpentor Dec 1 still and the dusty zarana wave might be delayed till later december from what I E been hearing. Still waiting for that retro card back destro to make the rounds to complete wave 1.

Odd that I didn't get an email about it today, despite being a backer.

I caught the article on HISS Tank earlier though, so I got today's vote in at least.

Yeah exchange and shipping did a number on the price.


Plus Hasbro (Amazon?) decided to charge closer to a deluxe price for Kamakura rather than the standard price.

For anyone that missed out, Hasbro Pulse has Serpentor and Mindbender up for preorder again while supplies last. I preordered 5mins ago (around 23:00 EST)

https://hasbropulse.com/collections/...dbender-figure


Edit 23:12 EST - Mindbender is now said to be sold out but Serpentor is still up.
