The Sail Barge is performing well enough for Hasbro release new painted images showcasing this amazing playset that will be offered next April should they reach 5,000 backers on www.Hasbro.com/Haslab. To remind readers, they need 5,000 backers looking to spend $500 each plus tax (shipping is free and this will only be offered in the U.S. and Canada) to go into production on this. The Sail Barge made its debut during New York ToyFair, and has gained some momentum since then, and has slowed down a bit as we are reaching the crucial point to back this project.
As of today, there are just over 2,900 backers with 13 days to go to determine its fate, and that isn’t a lot of time for Hasbro to gain almost 2,100 backers needed. Funding for this will end at 11:59 EST on April 3rd, 2018. The Vintage Collection Jabba’s Sail Barge (The Khetanna) estimated ship date is 2/28/2019 and Jabba’s Sail Barge (The Khetanna): Behind the Workbench booklet will start shipping on 4/4/2018.
Measuring approximately 4ft long, this vast vehicle is a dream item for any Star Wars collection. Designed to captivate and inspire, The Vintage Collection Jabba’s Sail Barge (The Khetanna) features exquisitely detailed, fan accessible decks that complement 3.75-inch figures (not included) allowing fans and collectors to recreate intense battles in the Star Wars saga. Its removable side panels also offer a unique opportunity to pose and set up incredible dioramas. Complete with premium deco, vintage packaging, and soft cloth sails, this dream product offers Star Wars devotees the quality and realism they know and love. Included with the vehicle is Jabba the Hutt (3.75-inch scale figure).
