It will go into production if they get a million dollars in pledges by November 6.
I've not seen them do this for other games/toys, have you?

Buy hideouts and earn Imperial credits by charging rent
I don't know why I find this hilarious but I do.

Yeah, uba, I have not seen this before either. It's an interesting take on subverting kickstarter fees from an industry giant who can set up their own system and doesn't really have to worry about credibility.

I'm guessing there's basically no way this doesn't get funded though. That's just 10k backers.

That's a lot of nostalgic fans to capture, that's a lot of cash when you line it up against the competition that has 30 years of design advancement on their side (I played Space Crusade recently and while fun we all thought it was obviously dated). This really needed to arrive 10-15 years ago.

That's a polite way of phrasing it. Looks like a complete clone of the concept.

I’ve seen a couple of smaller companies start with KS and then using the goodwill they’ve banked to try their own take on in-house crowd funding, with varying success. It seems unusual for Hasbro but the funding level being a million bucks puts the scale of the business they do into sharp relief.

They were so lazy they left the original artwork for the four corner board spaces the same as the original ? Why not show in Imperial Detention Center instead of Jail, or a Stormtrooper instead of a 30s era cop?
I'd expect an OUTER RIM Mandalorian expansion at some point.
