Is 250 the official number of orders that must be placed before Moog will move forward with development? If so, I hope we get emails or a web site announcement letting us know when that magical number has been achieved so we can all do the happy dance. Come on people, just 50 more and we're there!

We need one of those 'church roof fund thermometers' on the front page, you know with a red line showing the number of people committed to buying.

I put my 500 dollars in the pot.
Also I think that 500 will be the special number that makes the decision. I didn't really ask but Heidi said the number 500, so well see.
She also added that we will be getting all kinds of emails and notifications when they get ready to ship and prior to that so we can shake all our couches for the rest of the moolah to get that blessed tracking number.
Moog Purgatory I reenter. (Ill get out of Moog hell when I find out what gives on my Voyager.

Next order please.....

My YouTube ad got a HUGE thumbs up from Moog Music Inc. It's also got 246 views so far!

An absolute maximum of 244 of those viewers have put an order in if you exclude my Chinese friend who can't afford one, and Moog Music themselves.

Of course, it's more likely that NONE of the people who have viewed that video have put down $500 on the Taurus pedals!

We can only hope for the future.

Looks like we made it! The early-order discount and "if we decide not to pursue development" verbage have been dropped from the Taurus page, so I believe we can assume the project is a go. If so, its time to do the happy dance & break out the 18-year old Macallan single malt. Moog Admin., can you please confirm?
Thanks

Wohoo!!! It seems that Christmas came two days earlier than usually. This is great news. Also the price is now 1999 $ or something like that. It has to mean that we have 250 deposits now.

Aye, still a great deal when compared to the cost of a vintage Taurus set.

2k is still a great deal when compared to vintage Taurus pedals. A beat up set of out-of-tune T2's can fetch up to $1699, and T1's start around $3000 in the same condition as the aforementioned T2's.

I had to impulsively buy the pedals as soon as I had the chance. I ordered mine on Friday and by monday the website showed its changes!
I caught it by the skin of my teeth.
