Seriously, he gives PotP Grimlock and ER Snapdragonm a run for their money.

Haslab had a good year funding 4 of 4 projects,.as opposed to failing 3 of 4 prior to that.
Definitely looking forward to seeing what the 40th anniversary Haslab will be in early 2024, although I have a feeling it will be Cybertron/Primus.

Everyone who backed the Legendary Emperor of Destruction started receiving emails from Hasbro Pulse this week notifying them that he will be shipping out soon, and requested all backers update their address as necessary for his arrival. Pulse asked all updates be submitted by November 24, suggesting that, like Victory Saber last year, Deathsaurus will ship out just in time for the holidays.
So go on and check your email if you haven't already, get your address updated, and get ready for the Emperor of Destruction!

Not sure how well praying to Primus works for characters from Japanese continuity, but same here. I still haven't done anything with my Star Saber because I keep procrastinating about drilling out that missing slot to attach his nosecone. Even bought a fresh dremel from Harbor Freight, but I can't seem to find the right time.Immortal Starscream wrote:here's to praying to not having all the same issues I had with star saber.
Looks like I'll have full Rescue Patrol interaction before any epic duels. Deaths'R'Us will wait patiently on his throne...

Any figure can be done right at a retail price. I really would've liked to have seen what a Studio Series 86 Grimlock retool would've looked like. I wonder if that's why the OG SS86 hasn't gotten a reissue.

Probably pretty dire. Not sure how they would get the wings into the price point, let alone weapons, and his partners would have to be separate Core figures.

That probably has more to do with the mold being held up by the G2 and Shattered Glass releases.

Agreed, there would have been too many sacrifices and not much to be gained other than cheaper price point.

Not without major compromises. Just look at the Combiner Wars release of Liokaiser, for instance. People are still clamoring for a better, more legit Liokaiser even after Hasbro already gave us that version.chuckdawg1999 wrote:I think it could've been done if Hasbro wanted to do it.

Hasbro could've made Liokaiser and Deathsaurus at retail without compromises if they wanted to, they didn't to appease shareholders.

Hey, look at that. Shipping from California so that's probably going to be a long trip to get to me on the east coast unlike their usual hubs. ]

eesh, he would've need heavily retooled and probably upped to Commander to include just his wings and such, plus separate releases for his minions. Thank god they did Haslab

Not all 27K are for North America though, that's how many orders were made world wide. Id say probably about HALF of those are for North America, and of those, there will be multiple distribution points. 13-14K units for all US, Canada, and Mexico wont be going out from El Chino California...at least I'd hope not.

That would have been 2022 revenue, they already collected the money for both of them when the campaigns completed.
