Its a memorable scene at least with all the main heroes and lots of cool background creatures set is a remote desert setting with some cool floating vehicles. That is about as Star Wars as a single scene can get.
Sure, the Falcon or Death Star are more iconic, but they have been done in various ways over the years and the barge hasn’t. If this ever funds, I’m sure we’ll get versions of the MF and DS eventually. This is just the start the start of a new thing for Hasbro to try to make new, unreatailable items collectors want. Funding this only opens more doors for new items. Even if this doesn’t hit 5,000 it will be close and show Hasbro there is a demand for these kind of items. This might have been mismanaged with an incomplete prototype at the start, but it certainly isn’t a failure even if it doesn’t fund. The “lab” part of Haslab even recognizes this is an experiment and any scientist should be able to learn from failed experiments and try again with making corrections from the results.
I agree that for what it is this new Barge toy is awesome. As I mentioned earlier when it was announced it's almost the SW equivalent of Castle Grayskull combined with the USS Flagg. But at the end of the day for the money and size I personally would lean toward the Falcon. But for people who had the space the BMF Falcon, BMF AT-AT, and this Barge would make an awesome trio (should this one get released.)
