Would it be too much to think the tier 2 and 3 stretch goals could be additional Deluxe figures? I mean Galactus included 2 Marvel Legends as stretches.
Probably more realistic would be Micromasters, which would be ok, but deluxe toys would be really amazing.

I watched the video for the first time yesterday and the cleanly shaven designer said the opposite. He said "a few details here and there will probably change a little bit as we move forward but nothing too significant". That means the design itself is mostly final, anyone expecting more than what they see will be dissapointed.

What part of "they'll be tweaking things as they go" sounds the opposite of "a few details here and there will probably change a little bit"?

There are now several places covering different continents. There will be more and they will probably pop up in our sponsor news posts this week and the next so keep an eye out for those too. If you do not see your country listed below, check the Zaavi site or the robotkingdom site to see if they ship to yours since the list below is far from exhaustive and those two retailers ship worldwide.
New Zealand: EB Games New Zealand for $369 NZ. $100 deposit.
Australia: EB Games Australia for $369 AUD. $10 deposit.
Many countries in Europe and the rest of the world are being covered by Zaavi for 209,99 €, check the site for your specific country but here are France and Ireland as examples:
France
Ireland
If you are in Asia, you can get it through Robot Kingdom which will even ship it free to those in Hong Kong and Macau. Price is identical to Hasbro Pulse but there is a $50 non refundable deposit. They also ship worthwhile.
And once again if you live in the US, UK or Canada, then Hasbro Pulse is the place to be.

I thought about this, but wasn't the whole Rescue Patrol already released between Siege and ER? They could do "Holi" in Victory Anime accurate color scheme (Since the darker Holi/Stakeout appears in toy accurate colors in Zone). I believe all the others had the correct color scheme though? They could release Clipper also maybe?

Nope, only 1/2, just the fire truck and cop car. No ambulance or boat, so those 2 could be a reasonable stretch goal.

Don't forget that they can still do the whole team by virtue of Holi being white in the anime instead of Stakeout's black. Don't know how they'd change Red Heat for Fire...

It's "but nothing too significant" which sounds the opposite to "the design is far from final".
The design is not far from final, that was not said. And thus, I would not expect anything looking that different to what they showed so far.

Cause aren't those exactly the same shape as Jetfire/Scorponok/the Ark's? That's be pretty disappointing to me if it was just a reuse of those ones

Lol, other tiers? Its been stuck at below 5500 for a few days, I'd start getting worried instead, as it seems to have stalled
Yeah, I'm not worried atm. If we've already basically hit 5500 from 3 countries (didn't forget you this time WJ88) that Star Saber has no exposure in, then we'll doubtless get a huge boost once the international numbers come in, especially from Japan.Emerje wrote:Hellscream9999 wrote:-Kanrabat- wrote:I'm getting more and more exited by the day!

That's only the orders from Pulse and Pulse UK and there's still over a month to go so I don't see any reason to be concerned at all yet. A lot of people are going to wait for colored renders or painted prototypes before they commit. We'll see massive jump towards the end once the international and third party shops get tallied in.

Also, when I checked last night it wasn't even at 5500 yet, so no way it could have been stuck there for days.
