Night Thrasher Leaves The 90's Behind Him In New Solo Series
spoooky replied to JayC's topic in Marvelous News's General Area
Night Thrasher had a limited series and a solo series in the 90s -
It doesn't take a data scientist to look at the graph of previous haslabs and see that (other than the massive cancellation wave after the hellcharger fiasco) they basically add nothing to the numbers between the first couple of weeks and the limp bounce over the final days. But I can't trust the judgment of anyone who uses "spurts" and "trickles" that much

I'm not trying to be rude, but yes you are wrong. Again this is not a preorder. You are right that there is not a limit to number being produced but that's not the important part. Yes they will fill the orders they receive. However, and this is that downside you haven't thought about, the pace at which orders are placed will affect the campaign. Maybe I can explain it. If that 40% number you mentioned stopped waiting and instead all committed to backing today, the project would be backed. Well then there are two weeks left, and maybe order will trickle in and unlock those 2 tiers. But, if everyone just placed their orders immediately, Hasbro would want to keep the momentum going. That could mean more or better extra tiers. Especially because, and this is especially crucial after the mass cancellation of the Hellcharger, if the project is funded before the deadline, Hasbro is more likely to add more accessories to entice backers not to leave. The number of backers to get it made covers Hasbro making their cut, excess orders are not going to drastically increase production cost. TL;Dr please please top waiting until the deadline to back these. Your are not doing anything but hurting the chances for the campaign to get extra goodies

Ok so I think that like me, you view a crowdfunding campaign as an opportunity to get together and finance a toy that would be unfeasible otherwise. Everyone works together and gets a cool thing! But this other guy, he seems to view a crowdfunding as a preorder campaign that either fails or doesn't and either way it wasn't something he ordered so who cares. Instead of working together to get the toy made, he doesn't understand why it wouldn't be a shorter period because, no matter what, he was going to order at the last convenient second. Ironically enough this kind of behavior is what actually makes these last longer because business is dumb and whenever it see a graph swing up the immediate reaction is "yes.more."

I thought that adding the "basically" would imply that it was a joke -

I just finished reading Daredevil #12 and I would absolutely love a figure of the all white "Hand of God" Daredevil from the last page. -

Jubilee but only sometimes -
I think the issue is about whether you approach costumes from a functional or aesthetic starting point. Because you're giving consideration to how it would actually feel to wear and move in whereas I'm just like baaaahn-baaaahn-baaaahn-baaaahn-baaaahn-baaaahn-baaaahn.

Love the look. Love the jacket. But I get the criticisms, imagine if a male superhero wore something as ridiculous and impractical as a jacket. An item of clothing specifically designed so it can never be removed

In what world does that experience qualify you to speak on what a flying superhero wears to fight aliens?

How could they mess up the wheels so badly? There should be 5 spokes, like a pentagram or a Dodge Charger. Not 6 spoke wheels that look like came off a 95 Honda Civic. The rims are not only ugly, they're not accurate to the Comic, the Charger, or the Devil. -

Poor Havok. He just cannot get a win. -
I think the early costume was lighter green but current costume is darker. The stripes are usually black or nearly-black with green highlights But both costumes definitely had the same color stripes on the front and the back of the wing things. Edit: This looks like the early 90s X-Force costume but with darker green
