Haslab Cantina: A Closer Look

The Hasbro team has shared a new video showing off the display versatility of the latest Haslab project.

Remember, they will stop taking backers at 11:59PM EDT on July 8th. You can back the project and reserve your cantina and pack-in figures by clicking here.

Success Or Fail?: Hasbro Pulse TVC Boba Fett’s Throne Room

Initially set to close last Friday, the Vintage Collection Boba’s Fett Throne Room has officially closed for preorders and is listed as “Sold Out”. We now have to wait until late 2023 for this to arrive in our hands. A lot can happen in the world between now and then but thankfully we still have our cash in-hand as, unlike a Haslab campaign, we won’t have to pay for these until September. That said, let’s look at the preorder numbers this generated:

Hasbro Pulse US: 9695 (Max 19750)
Hasbro Pulse UK: 870 (Max 1000)
Hasbro Pulse EU: 529 (Max 1000)

Total: 11094 units preordered (this number may still fluctuate as preorders are cancelled or if/when they reopen.)

What do you think? Based on the numbers sold, it pulled in a little over half of the total allocated product to the 3 Hasbro Pulse stores.

I don’t think I speak out of turn to suggest that this would have had stronger global sales if it was marketed as a Return of the Jedi piece and include Jabba the Hutt — next year is the 40th Anniversary after all.

Preorders Closing at Midnight for the Vintage Collection Boba Fett’s Throne Room Playset

A reminder that preorders* for the Hasbro Pulse exclusive Vintage Collection Boba Fett’s Throne Room will be closing tonight at 11:59:59pm ET. Expected delivery of this set is scheduled for September 2023, preorders may open again as we get closer to that date.

*Preorders won’t be charged until the product is ready to ship.
