I reckon it'll be made regardless of if it meets the target but I'd be curious if it doesn't what they'd do. They've spent time and effort at it so I couldn't see them wasting that time or money.
For anyone who used Hasbro pulse do they include invoices????

Your better off selling a testicle, you get 35k for 1.

The price is more than that and it is nuts. They should sell this worldwide either from regular stores, select online stores (BBTS, Robotkingdom, Kapowtoys etc) or straight from their local warehouses through their own website. The box doesn't have to be humongous, just ship him in his IKEA lamp mode.

Hey now! I resemble that remark!

I was just reflecting on what I'd seen on eBay!
And seriously people. This is a much more complicated and dense figure than any Titan-class, that pulls off Unicron's planet mode without the shortcuts taken by the Armada toy. Trying to simplify or hollow it would probably undermine that.
And Hasbro does have to make sure there's enough to make back the development costs (and thus turn a profit) and a big enough run to be cost-effective.

Or work with the local divisions in each country. Set a minimum for various countries and if THAT quota is met then the local branches can import in bulk and then handle the individual shipping.
It would work out a lot cheaper for us foreigners shipping wise, and they're guaranteed more backers.

Yes, thats a great idea. Magic Death, Charging for shipping from the US would be as dissuasive as not offering it (I mean, thats literally the case since forwarding services do exist for this type of stuff and no one is even contemplating it). For a product this big, international shipping would be a ludicrous amount of money. I remember the encore fort max reissue had cost me close to $100 to ship, and that was years ago. Shipping prices have gone way up since.

Hasbro is in the business of making money so do you really think that they haven't tried to figure out a cost effective method of getting this guy over seas? They're not doing this intentionally to "**** over" collectors. And honestly, if you are actively wishing for this to fail for whatever reason then you're incredibly selfish.
As for me, I backed the sail barge and if I can I'll back this too. Yes it's expensive but it's HUGE. the thing weighs 19 friggin pounds. As others have said that's double what the Titans weigh so yeah, it's going to cost more. So with the size, detailing, and articulation I fully believe it's worth the price.
Tl;dr this thing is awesome, if it's not for you then it's not for you no reason to be a jerk about it.
