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.
Shit! My mistake I meant to say 6” scale not 12”. I agree with you on that, no way would a 12” vehicle be made now. I mean there were some back in the 90’s as my son had the Jeeps and hummers and a tank. ( I worked at TRU back then and grabbed them with my discount)
But today no way, 12” lines are dead.
