Dave Williams Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Not really a model kit, but have you guys seen the Razor Crest being offered by Hasbro Pulse? At 30 inches long, it’s huge! I found it interesting that they are selling it via a Kickstarter-type campaign where they need a minimum number of backers to start production. What’s mind-blowing to me, is they started it off at 6000 backers to get the model into production, and they are now up to nearly 15,000. That means they’ve collected over $5.2 million dollars!!!! I get that it’s a collectible and all, but that’s some serious money. https://hasbropulse.com/products/star-wars-the-vintage-collection-razor-crest dodgem37, Rick Griewski, Out2gtcha and 1 other 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They redid Jabba's Sail Barge and it is amazing! I don't personally have one but I have seen all the pics on it and it's gorgeous!

Juggernut Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Well, I just bought one for a future birthday/xmas present for my son. He's a Star Wars freak and he's into the Madalorian so he'll likely go nuts when he gets this. dodgem37, Dave Williams, Out2gtcha and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Williams Posted November 11, 2020 Author Share Posted November 11, 2020 Looks like it ended up with nearly 29,000 backers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juggernut Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 Got an email that this is going into production. 29,000 x $350 = $10,150,000. Nice haul for hasbro, even if production costs exceed 50% (which they probably won’t) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ade rowlands Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 It looked amazing. For space reasons though I shall stick to my Lego version. Plus, I didn't know these Hasbro things existed.

gunpowder Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 That looks fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juggernut Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 I just hope this comes fully finished...I don't think my son will be wanting to open, build and then paint it...he'd probably just leave it in the box (which he'll probably do anyway).
