We’ve been keeping reasonably close track of the Sail Barge backer count at least once per day since it started. Take a look to see how the campaign is doing. And before you click through, be prepared. You will likely want to weep, but we’ll then need you to pick yourself up by your bootstraps and get to work. If you don’t have any bootstraps, use anything to get up. A spatula, a lava lamp, a ballpeen hammer. Whatever works. Just get up and do something about this!

Lots of voices are weighing in on ways for Hasbro to incentivise more backers for the Sail Barge, and they’re all good. Our friends at Jedi Temple Archives offered this idea, which we also like. Now it’s our turn to weigh in on a way for Hasbro to generate even more buzz around this sensational vehicle, and we think (in our wholly uninformed position) that it’s eminently doable.
