If only they made it smaller, it would both decrease the price and make it playable, a 6" chess piece even tho looks good but imagine how big it's board is and than imagine like 32 pieces like this on that board, as if their colorful nature wasn't distracting enough...
A pewter set or pewter and bronze would have been better
Eaglemoss really were having aim waay high plans.
It's a shame because it would have been a great collectible set for $100 or even $200.
A prime example that size, infact, does matter
Yeesh, and I thought $600 for Unicron was asking a lot. Nice-looking pieces but still.
To me it’s really funny how Hasbro let them run a crowdfund for an expensive high-end item, and then only partway through put up HasLab Victory Saber.
This is a prime example of Kickstarter doing it's darn job. Every idea we have is a brilliant one that everyone will love... until it has to come face-to-face with hard reality. And in this case hard reality said "no", and that was honestly probably the right answer.
Now make me a chess set where the pieces transform into robots, and I'm all in.
Or just get a chess board and use your action figures as pieces.
I could've seen this project potentially taking off if they'd been half the size.
I remember it well, I thought it was stupidly big and stupidly expensive. Turns out too many people agreed with me.
Honestly, i was fine with the size. Gives you the option of just having cool statues instead of chess pieces. It was the price that turned me away. 600 dollars for all that? i'm pretty sure there are entire third party combiner sets cheaper than that.
Starscream truly is a queen
Starscream will always be the queen of my heart.
Aw, I was looking forward to that but yeah, that price tag definitely killed it before it could get off the ground
I bet that prime is priceless
Couldn't we just do this on a regular chess board using Core Class figures and Mini-cons?
While the novelty is neat to think about, it was way too big to be practical and way too expensive for that impracticality. Not to mention the same thing could be replicated with a normal chess board and a handful of Kreons.
Also nice Star Convoy shirt! Gotta find me one of those.
Funny enough, when I was in high school I designed my own G1 chess set in Sketchup as a 3d modeling class project. Scale was much smaller than what hasbro was going for, and as a time saving measure I only did individual characters for the non-pawn pieces, with the autobot pawns being Bumblebee and his repaints, and the decepticon ones being Starscream and all the seekers.
I forgot about this but I was so excited for it as well
Is that a star Convoy t shirt, that's sick
Nowadays, one could, theoretically, make the same thing at a fraction of the cost and scale with resin-printed miniatures and tile pieces. Just get some STLs and some 3d resin printers.
If it was smaller and the pieces didn't look like RED figs, maybe people would have funded this.
"There is more than meets the eye"
A chessboard is not a chessboard without more squares and more game pieces.
Had the set meet half the size in every dimension and retailed for ≈300 I could see it having a stronger niche. Even then it probably wouldn’t have funded.
I still really want the Soundwave piece...
Would it probably have been more reasonable if it were perhaps shrunk down more? Like be the size of an actual chess board and pieces?
It would have been amazing
That is somehow worse than the $80 hotwheels optimus prime
600$??? YOU'RE HIGH!!!!!
Oh hey I remember this
I remember that I forgot about it.
we already had die cast figures and you can just put them on a chess board and you dont had to spend $600
Did they have approval from Hasbro for this?
"this is so cool, why would this not be made"
*600.00 price tag*
That's why 0_0
SIX HUNDRED DOLLARS FOR A CHESS SET?!?!? Now I’m happy it didn’t come out
This chest set was destined to fail from the start. First Hasbro already released a chess set that was DOA. Second 3D printers. You can make your own set with your favorite characters.
Sounds like somebody didn't do their job. You had one task.
Basically the guys doing it got greedy, gave up, then got shut down. Understood.
it similar to a Gundam chess set but way too big.
I bet Starscream would be the queen 😂
people don’t like chess either anymore, sad
If They shrunk it down re-released the idea but do agreeable 100 or 150 price tag. I feel like it'd work a lot better
Should of started small 😢
The basic idea was good, but it went to crap after that. A set with bots around the current core size could possibly work. If it were at a smaller scale, bots that were not chosen to be in the original set could be sold separately to allow a little bit of personalization. A lot of different options at a small scale.
I'd pay $300
Would of worked had it been at a mucher smaller scale and at a more cheaper price too!
Where did you get that shirt
Yo where can I get that Star convoy shirt
Downscale it by about 2 times and it should have been fine and decently priced at about 150 to 300 dollars nax
what! I was gonna get it, how do I get one!
