I don't doubt the die hard fans. I just doubt the numbers of them. Transformers is much bigger than GI Joe (judging by number of movies, product lines, etc), and it struggled to sell Unicron - a major character in the mythologies. Took them an extra month and, if you believe in conspiracies, some numbers manipulations.

The Sail barge of Jabba passed it's goal with relative ease. A 6" HISS might sell at or below $150... might, but definitely no retail space at that price. MOBAT? I'm less certain of that selling 8 to 10,000 pieces. No way in heaven or hell would they make a 12" scale HISS or MOBAT. That would be over $500 unless it's super thin and no details.
