People on other boards are now actively rooting for it to fail and betting on how far it could drop. I've never seen a kickstarter of this scale go this much in REVERSE this far into its run. This is just crazy. To think that Hasbro expected today's final reveals to actually BOOST the number of backers. It's going to be a dismal Monday morning for certain people in that office next week.

The sad thing is, I don't think Hasbro's team has the clarity to realize why this will ultimately fail. They'll spin it around to pass the blame onto us instead, claiming there's just not enough collectors out there anymore to support big expensive toys like this.

Or it was 140 extras some people cancelled because they no longer think they can flip all the extras for big $$.

Either way, just wait for it and see what happens.
