While it's nice if the thing get's funded really quickly, I think it's irrelevant the bulk of the campaign. It's the final stretch that matters when all the numbers are being accounted for. When fomo sets in as well.

Now when it comes to the number of concurrent campaigns. I guess it depends on how the target users overlap. Are all the people backing Rancor the same people who backed Galactus?

Same with Ghostbusters and Transformers.

I still stand firm that the most people should be backing these Haslabs(at this point) for the main revealed figure. If the main product doesn't justify the price, then you probably shouldn't back. That doesn't give a pass to potentially crappy tier unlocks but tier unlocks that haven't been unlocked may as well not exist.

Now price in general. Playing the greed card I think is ignorant. A lower production run is going to cost more money to produce then if they did a mass release. This isn't a charity. Hasbro wants to make a profit but it's not like per unit each costs $10.

Now personally I don't think this thing is $350 given other Haslabs. Now will it be backed?

I think so.
I've backed 4 campaigns on Haslab, all successful. Unicron, the Razor Crest(Which I have since decided to sell along with my mando figs cuz I just dont have space and dont collect much star wars. Also ship blew up. I'm ok with my Lego), Starsaber, and now the proton pack. The protonpack, while not complete yet and even requires a secondary item purchase, has the benefit of a giant ghostbusters fan community who has had to pay between 1-4k for a proper 1:1 scale replica and this is the best option from an affordable price. I can finally complete my ghostbusters costume so I'm stoked for that.

So I dont know about overlap. I'm a Fan of all 3 of those franchises. But personally I do see it passing, but only if it does the same thing Unicron did in that they stretch the campaign. But it also has not only 2 other haslabs to compete with(And I dont see the GIJoe one passing either), but also X-mas and inflation. If it doesnt move the end date, it wont get made.
