Eternia Playset and "Camo Khan" exclusive figure (prelude to SDCC?)

[MIDOR]

I got to think Eternia has to a logistics nightmare for them. For the price and shipping.

UNLESS! They do a last minute thing and buy some. But that doesn't make sense.

Shipping is a flat rate, so if you buy one or a thousand, you still pay the same flat shipping rate fee of $56.95 (in the US)

[MIDOR]

Noted. Thanks.

Me getting He-Ro is my first time dealing with EE.

[Mechanizor]

EE is okay, but their shipping time and fees are atrocious especially if there aren't any discount codes available to use.

They've picking up a little of steam now, 8715... So MC updated their deadline to the exact timing this morning; Nov 9th 11:59 Pm PT.

[MIDOR]

I noticed the traction. Just now setting it? 8,720

[MIDOR]

8770 backers

1,230 to 10k

[Mechanizor]

Less than 28 hours to gooo, ding ding ding...

The bottom line is, most people who wanted and backed the actual playset, is going to get it including the Moat Creature, and at least the early backers like me will get King Grayskull, and if we don't reach the 10K mark, I still believe both KG and Keclar will be offered again down the road in some form or another (exclusives or variants).

[MIDOR]

And now a little under 24 hours to go.

8,815 backers
1,185 to 10 k

how close will we get?

8868 Backers with 14hr to go, that doesn't look good for the 10K mark!

8,933 backers

9 hrs 32 mins to go

[Mechanizor]

Less than 8hr, and we still haven't passed 9k, which we will soon, but 10K is very unlikely it seems.

[Mechanizor]

9050... Keclar is preparing his private Sky Sled to fly away to Despondos...

[MIDOR]

1. Preternia Surgeon General recommends people his age, no matter, the power level, fly.
2. How preternians said "died and went to h*ll"
3. (Insert a picture of Keclar with tear drop here)

[Mechanizor]

Not so fast, the numbers are picking up again! 9065!

4 hrs 46 mins to go

[Mechanizor]

Yup, Keclar has already given up and headed to meet with Horde Prime...

[MIDOR]

Almost done. about 7 minutes to go.

[Mechanizor]

Yeah, not even close to 9500... So I wonder if Mattel will offer Keclar as a thank you for all backers at this point.

[MIDOR]

Aaaaaaaaaaaaand!

Done!

9,267

[MIDOR]

Oops!

9,277

[Mechanizor]

9277?!
Looks number are still coming in!

[Mechanizor]

9278... I think it needs some time for it to settle in...

[MIDOR]

9,279 backers

[Mechanizor]

It stopped at 9280, for now...

[MIDOR]

9,280 backers

Ok. NOW that should do it. Right? No more straglers?

[MIDOR]

HA! Didn't see your 9280 comment when I made mine.

[Mechanizor]

Now, we'll see what MC says next after all this... Still, considering how expensive and obscure this playset was, over 9000 backers on a very short notice is a big success!

Hope we'll get more affordable Origins products after this besides the figures that is...

[MIDOR]

Yes. All things considered, one HAS to consider this a success.

More affordable products. Hmmm. Stridor was out. Roton is out now. Ground (Road) Ripper is coming

Wind Raider? Night Stalker?. Talon Fighter?

Toy attack track? don't see that happening.

Battle Ram?

A bit hard for me to recall what has, hasn't, is and will come out

Ok. NOW it seems the dust has settled.

Lookin' like 9.291.

Battle Ram?

A bit hard for me to recall what has, hasn't, is and will come out

a) The campaigned was "sold out" at the 9291 mark this morning, probably some payments were trickling in after the banks operating hours!

b) We already have: Wind Raider, Stridor, Land Shark, Roton, Ground Ripper and Sky Sled made

c) I still I'd like to see coming at least from the vintage line: Attak Trak, Dragon Walker, Spydor, Talon Fighter/Point Dread, Battle Ram, Night Stalker, Bashasaurus, Fright Fighter, Monstroid, Battle Bones, etc...

Of course there are a lot more vehicles and creatures also from 200X, mini-comics, cartoons, and even a brand new ones from the concept art, and whatnot...

I just got an email from MC in regards to the Eterina playset claiming it might be ready to ship in 6 months! And in the link, there is an assembly video of the set:

[Mechanizor]

Now Mattel Creations backed on their six months shipment email and sent this corrective email instead:

Moaty was so excited about moving day that he gave you the wrong delivery date. The Playset is scheduled to be completed in Spring of 2024.
