DSTZach Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Honestly I have no idea. I don’t even know how many will be at Toy Fair. I see stuff on the schedule, but I don’t know how many will make it out in the calendar year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just looking for a ludicrous number, I wasn't actually trying to suss out how many figures we're getting. No math problems or digging for clues; just being silly. I told you it was a clever post. So clever it could be misinterpreted and still viewed as clever. 9 hours ago, buttheadsmate said: I didn't . ................but welcome to my world. misunderstoodheadsmate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DSTZach Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 I prefer Quarry, the cereal made with stone. I like it because it's crunchy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

minimadman Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 Hey Zach is there any info you can give on this? Iron Giant is my all time favorite animated movie. I have the Mondo one at home and would love one for my office. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cylonchaney Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 So, I was reading some posts in the Aliens thread written by disappointed fans armchair quarterbacking DST's marketing decisions. Snarky responses were coming to mind along the lines of, "If you're so confident of your superior marketing skills, why not buck up and sponsor a run like Luke did? You'll get your unicorn mates and the rest will sell like hotcakes to get your money back." But I know they are just disappointed fans so I kept quiet. Then I thought hmmm maybe that could actually work. Would it be possible for a group of fanatical collectors to sponsor a run that DST doesn't want to gamble on? For example, a Bishop (clean) / Ferro two-pack to complete the cast. Could they do a kickstarter or something similar and then if there are enough guaranteed sales, DST can make them. Would something like that be possible? I have seen a couple of companies use kickstarter as a marketing tool for new products they are maybe unsure of. They get a guaranteed minimum pre-order by a certain date or they don't make the product and everyone gets their money back. Maybe you could do something like this to get us that third wise-man.

MisterPL Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Hasbro did that last year. Over 8,000 of us are expecting our $500 Sail Barges within the next couple weeks. I doubt DST cares where the money comes from. If someone wanted to start a campaign to get potential pre-orders for a specific SKU, it could happen. The trick was s distribution, which is why retailer exclusives are ideal. Maybe someday when DST has the infrastructure necessary to do such a thing, we’ll get a few neat 2-packs.

DSTZach Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 Iron Giant is 12", no price, no date. We've looked at Kickstarter, and direct sales, nothing has been eliminated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
