Re: Haslab Projects General Discussion

First of the "Final" updates:


HISS Tank:




26,772 / 8,000 (+4,984) Almost 5,000 more backers in less than 19 hours. Nice finish!!


Of course this isn't the "final" total since there is usually 10 days to cancel your order if you change your mind, plus there may be payment processing issues still. On top of that I don't think they have included non-Pulse international orders so that could up the numbers some more, but we'll have to wait and see. Probably another week, or so.


334.65% of funding goal (so far).

Re: Haslab Projects General Discussion

OK, let's do this thing again.


Not feeling this Haslab as much as the HISS, but I'll keep the updates coming anyway.




Ghost Rider:


3,190 / 9,000 (Day 1)



35.44% of funding goal with 44d 18h left.




The HISS keeps the record for fastest to reach the funding target. However this one is doing well compared to other Haslabs on day one. It will be interesting to see how this goes as the week goes continues.

Re: Haslab Projects General Discussion

Update:


Ghost Rider:




3,593 / 9,000 (+403)




Definitely on a slower track than the HISS but still moving along nicely. If it maintains this pace there should be a bump on the last day to get it over the hump for the early bird figure.


39.92% of funding goal with 43d 19h left.

Probably because the early bird FOMO tactics. Not a fan of it as it sort of feels disrespectful to the spirit of crowdfunding.

Re: Haslab Projects General Discussion

Update:


Ghost Rider:




3,852 / 9,000 (+259)




Well it definitely looks like the final day bump is going to be needed to get this over the line for the Early Bird figure. Still need 5,148 backers by Friday to unlock the Early Bird figure. Since there is 5 days left, that is 1,029 backers a day. That is way more than the 403, and 259 daily increases so far.


42.80% of funding goal with 42d 20h left.

Re: Haslab Projects General Discussion

Though I’m not the audience, I’m not feeling the Ghostridermobile.

I feel like McFarlane is doing stuff like this for a fraction of the price.

Re: Haslab Projects General Discussion

GREAT GOOGLY MOOGLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


$900AUS is about $800CDN right now (checked on Google for the exchange rate). You have to be a damn SUPERHEROIC fan of GR to want to plop down that much money for this Haslab.


Oh and I also checked on Pulse to see what it would cost to get one to me in Ottawa. It came out to $435.83US with shipping and taxes. After conversion that is $577.53CDN!!!!


I have spent as much, or more on some of the recent Haslabs, but all of them felt like they were worth the money, to me, even after the sticker shock. I just don't know if I can find it in me to bite this time, and I am a big GR fan (not so much Robbie Reyes).



This is going to be an interesting week, I wonder how close they'll get to the early bird funding goal by Friday. I wonder if the opaqueness of these other international suppliers will allow for some fudging if it is close.
