Out of curiosity, is anyone who is planning on backing but hasn't yet waiting to try to time it and be number 11000?

*raises hand*

Also just an odd observation; I was watching it for probably the last 30 or so minutes before it got to 5500. At one point the number actually went down by a little bit, indicating , I guess you can cancel your order...

Oh yes you can.
That's how I escaped from Unicron.

They showed off during the reveal stream that it can. Someone also noticed that Victory Leo has 5mm ports just above the gatling guns too

1-inch Brain of Courage Brainmaster figure
5-inch Autobot Saber figure
8.5-inch V-Star jet
7.5-inch Victory Leo figure
If V-Star is 8.5 then Star Saber should be closer to 10" which seems about right when looking at Star Saber and Leo together. Combined they might be closer to 12".

Those display shots make the posing look a lot more appealing, that's for sure. And I like the work around they came up with for Leo's visible hands in VS mode, simple but very effective.

Images of Haslab Star Saber, Victory Leo and Victory Saber Prototypes from Boston Fan Expo
- Motto: "'till All Are One"
Fellow Seibertronian Sabrblade has alerted us of some fun new images of the prototypes being showcased at the Boston Fan Expo by Hasbro as part of the Haslab Victory Saber project. The images come from Xellos who posted on The Allspark. We also have some from TFs on Vacation who posed them on the TFW boards. They had the recent Generations Punch/Counterpunch with them for a scale comparison and gave a description of the sizes. Star Saber himself was said to be slightly taller than a Titans Return leader class figure. And looing at the comparison with the deluxe figure on hand, Victory Leo seems more in line with a big voyager class toy. A comparison image posted by Bravemaximike makes it look like the combined Victory Saber mode is almost as big as Commander class Jetfire. Here are the images below for you to enjoy! They were first posted here.
Also, for those wondering, with only orders from US, Canada and UK, the number of orders for this project is currently 5669. Here is the link to the page on Pulse.

Re: HasLab Transformers Victory Saber Revealed and Crowdfunding Campaign is Live
My fears of Victory Leo’s Lion face being flattish has been laid to rest. Yay! Looks great now 
Still don’t like the fact that Victory Leo’s cannons are not full cylinders. The under side looks ugly when the cannons are pointing upwards
I do hope we hit 14000 to get the V-lock Cannon. It would be a shame if we had to go third-party for that. Victory Leo would never be complete without it.
It would also be really great if the packaging paid homage to the original Victory Saber 2-pack.
I wish we get swapple face plates for the brain master as a stretch goal if we can even get to 17000 or a sword that looks more like the anime (which the MP had). A flight stand for the combined mode would be nice too. HasLab, I hope one of you reads this,

While all Selects until now, and even Unicron had a plain brown packaging, we've seen a bit of upscale in the Galactic Odyssey series having more details on the inner package. I am curious to see what the Golden Disk series looks like as well as Black Zarak, the first Titan Selects. I'm hoping for a more detailed package, so we shall see when it comes time for Victory Saber.
Also, Galactus' estimated shipping date is fall 2022. I imagine that Victory Saber will be about the same time. There are 3 Haslabs (Razorcrest, Sentinel, and Heroquest) that are all supposed to ship before end of this year.

The feet looked a little silly in the original renders, but I don't think they look particularly bad on Victory Saber on the prototype. No better or worse than Legends God Ginrai.
I have no doubt they'll come in a brown box which is dumb as all the other HasLab stuff have been in full color boxes.

Yup, it’s a common combination method for gattai robos. God Ginrai has a similar situation, as well many SS/PR Mecha/Zord combiners as well (Ninninger’s King Shurikenjin and Go-Buster’s Great Buster come to mind). Sometimes it works, sometimes it looks a kid walking with bucket stilts or even snow shoes on.

Thanks for the clarification, E-man. I am waffling on this, but if its a foot tall or close that may seal it. I feel you get better details with the larger figures and im a details lover.

I feel like the US price ($180) for this is definitely worth backing, but the UK price (£180) makes it a tough choice. This makes it out to be about £50/$70 difference, and I'd very much like to know where the extra cash is going.
