If they get unlocked, there isn't a huge difference, but that's what leads to the "backing out". If you're satisfied with the guaranteed result of your initial pledge, you have less people playing the wait and see game.

And that's sort of what I mean about learning the wrong lessons. That becomes "the market won't support this" instead of "Our (Hasbro) expectations are way off". I can't pretend Hasbro couldn't produce this at a lower cost and still it be worth their while.

I think the two Joe Haslabs hit it out of the park. But, even among people who want this car, would anyone put that in the "dream item" catergory that Haslab is supposed to represent. They have the means to know what the community wants; what they need is to actually care.
And I think Hasbro has had the "we'll tell you what you want" issue for a while, which they've buoyed by the "you have to support the line to get the things you want", ie, buy a bunch of shit you don't want and maybe we'll make the things you guys actually want.
