The shift to 6" was likely inevitable regardless of who owned Star Wars at the time. Pretty sure multiple people in the industry said at the time that the shift to 6" was largely due to a combination of toy companies coming up with form factors that you could fit more on a shelf with (see Hasbro boxes vs. Toy Biz Clamshells), plus the rising costs of production vs. lower difference in price between (modern, fully articulated) 3.75" and 6" figures meant that the profit margins on 6" figures were larger than 3.75" figures. Dunno if that's still the case or not (but probably as the price differential hasn't changed much), but it was definitely a major driver as to why 6" became the preferred scale.

100%, but what's uncertain is if an unlocked stretch goal wouldn't be realized if the cancelations take it below a threshold (e.g., if this closes at 16,050 and we're at 15,978 30 days later, do we lose unlock #4? I know we'll close well, well above that figure, so it's moot - but for curiosity's sake...)

From the Cobra Night Raven since both are derived from the SR-71?

Razor Crest lost some backed units after they blew it up on the show too.

Come to think of it, this might actually work better as a CI-like themed retail wave since all of those vehicles might be small enough to release on their own.

Thanks to the already working treads only one sprocket on each side needs to turn.

I didn't back the Razor Crest (it dropped right after I'd decided to offload my 3.75" stuff) but I remember my wife howling with laughter at that scene when she realized the thing a bunch of people had just shelled out a few hundred bucks for was now in-universe smithereens. But that didn't stop it from being a hella cool toy, from everything I've seen, so I suspect those that DID get it are quite happy with it. |

Building off of this excellent idea, how about a Land, Sea, & Air pack with a Skyhawk, VAMP, and Develfish or SHARC?
