The NECA Deadpool was like 18" and $120, came with a lot of stuff for different display options. I don't see how comes Hasbro, being a bigger company than NECA, can't do the same.
They should’ve put more into the neck and waist articulation instead of putting so much focus on the hands. The detailed sculpting is cool but they made him too big for their customer base. They should’ve just made him 18 inches max and put him on pulse if they didn’t want to put him on shelves. ML team is out of touch with their fan base. It shows when indie products like SF II figs from Jada Toys, Valaverse AF, and Street Humans have better articulation and accessories.
If this funds, it will only reach the base level. The problem with that is that they admitted the tiers are pre baked into the price. I feel bad for people who want this thing. It's either not gonna make it, or 10,000 backers are gonna get ripped off
I'm not sure why this is soooooo hard to understand. Production cost are much higher for a small batch, like 10000. They go down as you add units to say 14000 and then open up space to add things. Yes you are paying for them. And yes it's better to fully fund and get everything. But only making 10000 makes those units less cost effective and raises the cost per unit. We aren't "getting ripped off" as much as you think. My bigger problem is the 25 a piece for basic figs that they make ten or hundreds of thousands of. That should be where our complaints are focused. This thing looks awesome, and I hope we pull through.
Oh, it's understood. It also does not quite math the way you got it figured out though. They already admitted that they figure the stretch goals into the price of the base offer. Why is that soooooooo hard for you to understand?
@trevormcguire6984 that isn't exactly what they said. Watch the actual quote instead of listening to talking points from others. Think of it the other way around. The price of the item with 4 tiers is x If it gets over 20000 backers. If it sells less 17000 they can't put tier 4 in due to the cost of production of the one off base that they don't have molds they are reusing or packaging made ect these things add cost. If they only are 9000 the cost to pay for the new production is up too high for the add ons. Look dude, I'm not out here to sell anything. They piss me off with a lot of stuff. But the Haslabs are our only way to get these huge figures. They aren't the conspiracy filled scam you guys build them up to be.
I backed the hell out of it on day one. There is no question that I want a 2 foot tall super articulated Giant Man in my collection! $200 is high, but reasonable to me.
I really like Giant-Man, I would been ok with a smaller version but this is a good size still, also I don't have any Giant-Man so if this doesn't fund I will have to settle with the old and expensive Toy Biz one that could potentially increase its price if this fails (even if its price is already close to this Haslab price) or the other smaller less impressive non classic suit Giant-Men that Hasbro has made. I can see why people don't want it to fund but I really hope it does.
Definitely backed it. This has been on most wishlists for haslabs since they started, so not sure what the holdup is. The ToyBiz doe not hold up at all. They always out do those. I have never regreted my Sentinal or Glactus, and im an Avengers guy. Not ever gonna get other Giant Men if we dont back this.
I agree that some of it could have been better. I also did a video comparing the O.G Giant-Man to the New one. The O.G. Giantman is one of my favorites and was a little iffy on the reissue. I took a shot and backed it. Then I saw it at NYCC in person and it really does look good. If it doesn't fund we'll all survive and it's "On to the Next One".😂
I'm glad that a classic Wasp and/or Yellowjacket isn't a tier, so then people who don't have the funds or don't want the Giant-Man can still get those characters, plus those figures won't be locked away if it's not funded, like what happened with Mephisto and those other characters with the Engine of Vengeance. They 100% should've announced these figures sooner, so more people would be hyped and want Giant-Man.
I'm not backing it. Don't think it looks good enough for the price nor do I need another massive figure like this. Could still fund though, they usually fold in the world wide sales end of campaign. It'll be close though.
Still a chance it might creep over the line. It's at 7,200 with about a day and a half. I'm not going for it. I would have bought a 12" or 14" for $70 to $80. My tallest Figure is a 13" Godzilla. Then I a couple of 12" like King Kong and Zilla.
Getting just a giant man with a few faceplates is not worth the 200 bucks that, maybe $150, but not $200. Honestly they could Salvage the project by releasing it has a specialty build a figure with an avengers wave, or something. Maybe Ramen toys or another third party with probably make a giant man figure for $200 or less.
@@ShinKamaitachi Ramen toys would still need a crowd funding on the purchase since it's a lot smaller company so they would have to do it through pre-orderes plus they would have to get away with licensing by changing the name entirely since they can get sued that's why they had to change names of products
I don't think it's going to fund. Instead of showing like faceplates that could have just showed off the wasp, that probably would have helped out. I was also telling myself the same thing when I saw the price tag and I thought this figure is not worth $200, because we're not getting a lot of s*** for $200. $150-$170 maybe $175, but $200, no.
The price point isn't bad given the size since most figures in that size being in 1/6 scale or other larger figures are about that price point. The issue is the figure itself and like you said nothing really worth it. To me the figure is off on body proportions like the shoulders are too small, head is too big, paint details aren't there and the articulation is off like the back of the head of a photo at NYCC shows the head barely on the ball peg which idk why Hasbro can't even figure out how to do a double ball peg for head articulation when other companies have figured that out. No excuse to have lollipop heads or gaps when a head is on a body
Ultimately it comes down to the cost of living. Life is getting expensive. $200usd for a figure in today's standard isn't something most people can afford unfortunately. Wasp should of been included. Hasbro isn't good at marketing.
Try $ 600 Australian dollars. That's $ 400 American. Imagine collecting outside of America and the shits made in Asian countries that are next door for easy shipping.
This figure looks amazing to me, I don't see anything about that is 💩. You could say it's not a character that interests you or that it's overpriced, but there is nothing wrong with the figure itself imo.
@@Pensive_Melancholy_a new wave every month and a half is killer on everyone’s wallet. Especially if there are barely any accessories and if 95% of the time, it’s all reused parts. They deserve to have their products go on clearance.
no, the message sent is not " the community need more", their conclusion is going to be : a comic figure of an og avenger does not sell so let's cut every b-list and c-list comic characters from the pipeline. They will never finish teams after this and to recoup the cost of this campaign they will raise prices again and pump more repaint. If this does not fund we loose, not hasbro...and worst of all it will show that they are right to not take risks and always go with the crowdfunding,
Hahahahahahahahaha.....try $600 bucks Australian. Thats around $400 American dollars. Someone is in control at these corporations and they are sub human. They know that children are not buying plastic crack. The toy industry has changed and greed has contributed to the balance shifting to far in these evil executives favour. Im 48 and its the first time ive changed the way i collect.
it's meh. $200 needs better engineering for those joints, so it doesn't look like the knee and elbow is cut off when bent. It's just a enlarged ML other than those insect looking hands.
No interest in buying it and also why are all the Marvel Haslabs just reissued Toybiz bafs it seems outside of the failed EoV? Where is a Spiderman Haslab or something cool like a X-Men Blackbird? The team making the decisions for these Marvel Haslabs seems dull, uninspired, lazy and doesnt know their audience. Also why not do polls of your fans for future dream projects aka what a Marvel Haslab should actually be?
I agree on doing polls going forward, but an X-Men Blackbird would be waaaay too big to make. Not only would it have to be way bigger than Galactus, but it would prob also cost over $500, and given how much real estate this thing would take, I don't see it funding. You mentioned Spider-Man as a haslab, though, and I'm intrigued. What do you think could be a cool option?
Those Toybiz BAF's are quite old now and only available on the secondary market for some pretty hefty prices. I'd much rather spend the money on a newer direct release. Giant Man ties into the Avengers 60th anniversary line, so that is the main reason it is the current Marvel Haslab.
@mgshock these people complaining are the ones that are completely our of touch w/reality. Smh. The Giant-Man HasLab is fantastic and a must for our ML collections. Great price too.
It’s clearly not worth $200 because the tiers are baked into the price. If it funds and doesn’t unlock tiers, people overpaid for this. Even if the tiers are garbage.
@@knman0010My guy, Hasbro is a billion dollar company. We shouldn't have to crowd fund shit for em when they obviously have the money to make stuff they just choose not to. I can understand smaller companies like Valverse, Mezco Toyz, Ramen Toys, Super 7, Four horsemen, and The Fwoosh since they aren't a multimillion or multi billion dollar big corporation they're a lot smaller and are more adult collectors oriented then Hasbro or Mattel only thing Hasbro despite making more action figures than Mattel. Mattel doesn't do shitty crowd fund stuff like Hasbro and doesn't abuse it. If they crowd fund something it's for fans and something everyone wants not half assed stuff.
Last year the EOV had a total of five figures and it didn’t fund. They said it cost too much and it didn’t fund. Fans said it locked figures behind a paywall and it didn’t fund. Now they get giant man low price, huge figure, no paywall for figures but now fans want figures as tiers. So do you want the figures behind a paywall or not? Marvel legend fans suck worst fandom I have ever experienced. It was my pleasure to not support this line not because of Hasbro or prices but because or collective fandom of petulant complainers insufferable malcontents who don’t deserve a line. Free Dan, Dwight, and Ryan from having to deal with this bullshit.
Yeah, there are plenty of paywalls out there. Haslabs are not the only one. Multipacks, exclusive multipacks, pulse exclusives, con exclusives, BAFs, they’re all paywalls. Haslabs are not different.
The problem wasn't the figures behind the paywall, it was sought after figures behind a paywall of a not as popular character(robbie reyes.) The characters weren't even directly related to robbie reyes. It was the wrong ghost rider to do anyway. Wasp and yellowjacket go hand-in-hand with giant man. Having those figures as tiers made sense.
What will you do if a Gi joe haslab fails? Would you complain that it failed miserably? Or behave like what the marvel legends fandom is doing now. Your opinions are irrelevant as all you do is spreading and venting your hate to everyone

I don't see how comes Hasbro, being a bigger company than NECA, can't do the same.
Inflation plus higher profit requirement due to Hasbro having shareholders. Extra heads are probably already baked into the cost as well.
@@mgshock The extras are already included in the Giant Man base price, that's why it's kind of a scam to lock them as tiers.
