I got my Rattler order in. The funding total has gone up by nearly a thousand backers from the time I got back on Pulse, looked at some pics, then got my order in. Hopefully this thing crosses 18k without breaking a sweat.

The Baroness looks exceptionally rad. Must have.

I think the actual jet is giving everyone what they want. Rotating and fold-up wings, a stand, and an extremely detailed toy plane. Both WW and the gunner look great. I wanted a fourth figure, but I’m not complaining with what we’re getting.

In this case, what the actual fuck are we supposed to do with these. I'd have to go out and buy an iron that I haven't held in my hand for decades then buy a denim jacket or something to iron them to. lol

Anyway, the rest looks good. The patches can be forgiven with a 4th figure at 20k backers.

Oh muh lawd.

Rattler looks amazing.

Wild weasel looks amazing.

Patches…. Wut?

Gunner is great and easy repaint for Ace down the road.

Baroness beautiful in blue with her original HDLR?? Love it.

It shows $27.99 shipping for me. I live in Canada though, so I guess we don't get free shipping.

I think the Rattler will fund all tiers pretty quickly. The patches were probably a choice to keep the price down and I'm sure there was internal debate regarding costing this out and getting to the sweet spot.

For me, it hits that sweet spot. Anything more price-wise would have turned me off. 299$ for the same offering would have delighted me greatly but coming in just over 300 is ok. I did skip the Cantina for this and I just see this as a better buy.

I do think on old website banner at top of page says Haslab not included for free shipping with premium (have not checked new).

Edit: says right on page. Peeps must of worried it was gonna sell out. Smash buttons. No reading lol

They'd need to add a 4th tier first.

At the current rate we've been going for the first 45 minutes, the Rattler should have about 4650 backers already by the time the Classified panel is over about 75 minutes from right now.

This should be funded by tomorrow morning.

I agree. I love the Rattler but patches is the first tier? I couldn't care less. How about another figure. We got four with the Dragonfly. Four with the HISS. But now we get three figures and patches?

I doubt I will ever use the Baroness figure as the Baroness, probably just going to be a pilot/gunner while the other figure is the pilot or something so I can have Wild Weasel out with the rest of the figures.
