Big shout-out to our friend Frank over at Padawan Bear Patches for his latest creation: the HasLab We Raised The Crest patch. If you are not familiar with his work, swing on by his store and check out his fantastic selection of vintage-style logo patches. They are beyond spectacular!

With 7 1/2 days still to go the Razor Crest has just reached more than 15,000 backers. Which means the flight stand has been successfully unlocked. There is zero reason to doubt that the Jawa will not be unlocked as well. The campaign will certainly add another couple thousand backers in the last week. The real question is if the Razor Crest will manage to get more backers than the Marvel Legends Sentinel. The Sentinel got 21,913 backers in total. Do you think Star Wars can beat Marvel? For that the Razor Crest would have to add another 7,000 backers in the last week. The bets are on!

More than 15,000 have now backed the Razor Crest

Hasbro Pulse JUST ANNOUNCED 4th and 5th tier UNLOCKS for the HasLab Razor Crest. The fits is a display stand for the vehicle. The second is a carded TVC Offworld Jawa Elder with SOFT-GOODS! See Instagram for more!

“Unlock #4 (15k backers needed) gives backers a Hasbro Star Wars The Mandalorian Display Stand. Display the Razor Crest on your shelves with this slightly tilted stand to make it look like the ship is in flight! Unlock #5 (17k backers needed) gives backers a Star Wars The Vintage Collection Offworld Jawa Elder (Arvala-7) with exclusive Kukri knife, necklace, open mudhorn egg, and card back you can only receive with the HasLab Razor Crest. (Final product may vary in color or detail.) See more images on HasbroPulse.com! You only have until 11:59PM ET on November 9, 2020 to back this project. This is the way.”

The Razor Crest is only a very short time away from reaching 13,000 backers, which unlocks the carbonite blocks. And now Hasbro added another two additional unlocks. What could they be? Lights? Another figure, maybe Kuiil? What do you think the two additional unlocks will be? Leave your guess in the comments!

UPDATE: The Razor Crest now has 13,000 backers and the third tier is unlocked. Unlock #4 will probably be revealed later tonight.

Unlock #4 and #5 have been added. What will they be?

In today’s Mando Monday livestream the painted Razor Crest was revealed for the very first time. Is the ship vac metalized? No. Does it still look very nice? Decide for yourself! Click through to see the Razor Crest in all its glory, we have a ton of photos for you!

HasLab Razor Crest Painted Prototype

Today’s Fan First Friday concentrated on the HasLab Razor Crest development. The most interesting tidbits:

• The Child’s pram will come vac metalized – a HasLab exclusive
• Patrick quote: “Carbonite blocks would be an interesting item for the future”
• At least 1 more unlock is forthcoming and will be announced next week (carbonite blocks?)

Most of the video concentrated on showing off the in-hand gray model prototype. You can see the entire video here. No other new announcements were made.

The HasLab The Vintage Collection Razor Crest has reached 10K backers!

What is the goal and purpose of Hasbro’s crowdfunding platform HasLab? To give fans the opportunity to get items that could never succeed at retail? That is the basic idea. But is HasLab really just that? A platform that gives hardcore collectors things they would never get otherwise? Or is HasLab something else entirely? I believe HasLab is evolving into something very different from what it is intended to be. Why? Click through for a  discussion!

That’s what Hasbro is saying

CNET has revealed more images from the Razor Crest campaign, including a mock-up of The Child (Nevarro) on a TVC card back. Click here for the full story. It remains to be seen if The Mandalorian will also come carded.

The 2nd stretch goal for the Razor Crest was just revealed. And it’s none other than Baby Yoda aka The Child! He comes with his 2nd crib he had towards the end of season 1! In his left hand Baby Yoda is holding his favorite toy in the world, the metal knob from the control lever. Which was absent from the cockpit renders. How do you like that stretch goal? Also, do you think Baby Yoda might also see a single release (with his first crib) later in 2021? You can back the Razor Crest here to get Baby Yoda in TVC!

With 8000 backers we are now getting (what we should have already gotten) the first stretch goal featuring an escape pod. Let’s hope when they finally reveal the next stretch goal it will be something a bit more exciting! Have you backed it yet?

The Razor Crest is 352 backers short of reaching 8,000 backers, which means two things: the escape pod is greenlit and the 2nd stretch goal should be revealed in the next few hours, probably when people in North America wake up again. Now the big question is, what will that 2nd stretch goal be? Could it be a Baby Yoda figure? Prisoners in carbonite? A flight stand? A second escape pod? Or maybe some lights for the cockpit and cargo bay? What is your guess? Also, at the pace the Razor Crest gets backers the question is if maybe an ultimate 3rd stretch goal will be added once 10,000 have been reached. Or do you think two stretch goals is all the Razor Crest will get? Also: the first person to guess the 2nd stretch goal wins the internet for today! So leave your guess in the comments!

The 2nd stretch goal should be revealed on Tuesday

Now that the Razor Crest is officially backed, the HasLab page has revealed the first stretch goal (8000 backers needed) to be an escape pod add-on. 

The HasLab The Vintage Collection Razor Crest is fully funded as of 5:35 PM ET! That’s quite a success. It was backed in just over 24 hours. Is that a HasLab record? Congratulations to all who participated in this HasLab project. The first bonus unlock is an “escape pod add-on” feature, perhaps the worst unlocked bonus ever?

It looks like the HasLab The Vintage Collection Razor Crest may or be fully funded in 24 hours. The campaign just experienced a significant jump, and we’re less than 400 units from it going into production. I’m posting the article now because it will undoubtedly meet the goal by the end of today. Hopefully, it will be a record-breaking 24-hour campaign. What are you going to do with yours? Are you excited?

UPDATE #1: Less than 200 units needed as of 4:00 PM ET!
UPDATE #2: Less than 50 units needed as of 5:15 PM ET!
UPDATE #3: The Razor Crest HasLab Project is fully-funded as of 5:35 PM ET!

With the Razor Crest HasLab on its way to funding (ca. 1,100 backers are still needed as I write this) I thought it’s a good idea to visualize just how big the ship will be. How much of a footprint does the TVC Razor Crest have? How will it look on your shelf? And how scale accurate is the TVC Razor Crest?

The 2020 Hasbro HasLab project, The Vintage Collection’s Razor Crest will be available to international collectors. Hasbro launches crowdfunding for this item exclusively in Europe and the UK through Zavvi!

So, what do you think Hasbro will reveal tomorrow during Fan First Friday? Will the HasLab be revealed? Will Hasbro announce they’re completing the Kenner 96 in one fell swoop. Are we getting ou long-awaited Death Star? Will they make the Tantive IV? Will we get more cantina aliens and Jabba’s Palace aliens since Hasbro treats them terribly in the modern line? Or will it be another The Black Series 6″ show loaded with everything 3.75″ collectors want in 6″ scale instead?

What would you do or what would be your response if Hasbro announced a modern update to the Creature Cantina for The Vintage Collection HasLab project? Imagine finally getting the bar complete with the distillery. Then think about carded pack-in figures like a Tonnika Sister, or a Blue Snaggletooth (among others). Oh, and imagine it filled with plenty of tables and chairs for various patrons. Let us know how you feel about this HasLab “idea.” (Please don’t comment on other suggestions just yet as we’ll be addressing multiple ideas this week.)

What would you do or what would be your response if Hasbro announced the Rebel Blockade Runner for The Vintage Collection HasLab project? Imagine finally getting the vehicle from Kenner and Hasbro that didn’t get past prototype form. Imagine a Captain Antilles and Rebel Fleet Trooper with a new portrait carded in classic TVC packaging as pack-in figures (Please don’t comment on other suggestions just yet as we’ll be addressing multiple ideas this week.)

What would you do or what would be your response if Hasbro announced the Death Star Space Station for The Vintage Collection HasLab project? Imagine a set of alternate card backs for all-new pack-in figures of Princess Leia Organa and Luke Skywalker included? And how much of it would you like to see follow in the footsteps of the original Kenner release? (Please don’t comment on other suggestions just yet as we’ll be addressing multiple ideas this week.)

While not really related to Star Wars, it may be of interest to some that the new Haslab Marvel Legends campaign has a promising start. The campaign was officially launched a few hours ago and 2,600 out of 6,000 required backers have already made their pledge. Click through for more info!

Update: now that was quick, the Sentinel has reached the required number of 6,000 backers already. Congratulations! Next up, the various stretch goals, which should all be reached. It’s greeat for Hasbro, HasLab and the Marvel collecting community that this campaign is a huge success.

The next HasLab was teased during today’s Hasbro Pulse Livestream, and it was revealed that it will focus on The Vintage Collection. The specific campaign details were not revealed, but are going to be announced sometime in August or September. Let the speculation begin!

With the state of Star Wars merchandising (and action figures in particular), I wish that everything The Vintage Collection-related going forward would come via HasLab. (more….)
