When did they say that?

I certainly don't think that's the case, given the massive jumps we had not long after each reseller was announced.

When you ask on the hasbro pulse webpage chat, they always say that the numbers on the tracker are US/CAN only. From that there are 2 conclusions: either they are truthful (in which case, those jumps may come frome another source, for example retailer deals), or they are not (in which case, why tell a fib - unless you want the credibility when adding a large sum at the end of the campaign and to say to everybody: "success, we unlocked everything").

Either way - time will tell.

Or 3) They just think the totals are just US/CAN only, and nobody told Customer Service what they need to know.

Can someone transcribe the answers for those who don't have Twitter?

I wanted to know what Equipment Cards we're getting, card dimensions, what are on the Treasure cards, etc.

It is on youtube, not on twitter.
about the equipment he just sayd they implemented the armory with some news, like the Hand Axe, Holy Water, Bracers and Potion of Speed (not really new items... but from UK version).
Also sayd they included new artifacts from the new stretch goal questbooks.

I doubt they will reply your answer, but I forwarded it anyway:

Yeah, those jerks! Thanks for helping. What's the Youtube link?

Holy Water and Potion of Speed are Treasures, odd that they're being made "equipment." (unless I misunderstood)

I guess that's another thing... if there's no "Alchemist Shop" just like no "Armory" then putting these as cards makes sense. Not to be pedant here, but you can't buy a blessing! (maybe you're buying the fancy bottle and then a Cleric will prepare it for you for free)

If we're getting the Hand Axe and bracers, that sounds like it's a full combination of the EU and NA set. I want my longsword, my 1 attack die staff, and my short sword that doesn't attack diagonally. ;)

At best looks like they'll reach the "extra Abominations" goal (I know, to many the only "Abomination" is the Orc Bard, I'm not that harsh but I understand where they're coming from).

I think we need a mini of one of these Fish guys carrying a passed out 1950's woman in his arms. Just sayin'. If you want to be equal, you can have the female Abomination doing it to a 1950's man.

Day 43: $58,896 in sales total of $3,114,339 (~392 MT copies)

Pledges dropped to just over half the numbers from yesterday. Possibly indicating that the sales bumps yesterday were international additions? Tomorrow will tell.

The sales trends continue to rise reaching a moving average of ~$64.3K/Day over the past 5 days (since the 38th.)
8 Day average ~$60.5K/Day (counting from the 35th)
There are ~2 Days left in the campaign.

Overall the numbers are continuing their upward climb over the past 5 and 8 days.

To reach the 3.2M stretch goal for the alternate abomination sculpts would require ~$85.6K or ~572 more copies of Mythic tier.

The Dread Warrior alternate Sculpt at the $3.4M Stretch Goal will require ~285.6K, or ~1,909 Mythic Tier pledges.

The alt-sculpt Dread Warlock unlocks at $3.6M in $485.6K or 3,238 Mythic Tier pledges

The alt-sculpt Gargoyle unlocks at $3.8M at ~$686K or 4,572 pledges at Mythic Tier

To reach the final stretch goal with Quest Book by Joe Manganiello with the Dragon Miniature and Game Tiles would require $885,661 or 5,905 pledges at Mythic Tier level.
