Last day of Q3, come on wave 5 =P

By DarkGuard, in X-Wing

Can be hopeful =P

seriously, where are my reprints. they were promised.

Last day of Q3 is the 31st of December. Q4 is new year until the end of March.

Last day of Q3 is the 31st of December. Q4 is new year until the end of March.

In the US, unless a company specifically has a different fiscal year, Q1 is Jan-Mar, Q2 is Apr-Jun, Q3 is July-Sep and Q4 is Oct-Dec.

I did a search on-line about FFG, and do not see it mentioned that their fiscal year does not correspond to the natural year.

So the end of Q3 would be September 30th.

EDIT: I am a moron ... I must have fat fingered my search ... after doing it again, it is confirmed that FFG's fiscal year-end is December 31st, 2014, so end of Q3 for them would be September 30, 2014.

Actually missing the mark of quarterly projections is contributing something of note.

If FFG states something and it doesn't come to fruition, that is something of noteworthy importance to the product.

Especially as we live in a world where if things don't happen by Q#, more big numbers change.

Now since FFG isn't publicly traded, all the issues are probably internal. It most likely impacts the company FFG probably had a deal with in production or logistics.

No telling someone to hurry up isn't. (which is fair on FFG's part). And referencing such is a bit of a strawman.

I just had an online retailer tell me that he won't put up presales of the Wave 5 ships yet and I should check back in 30 days.

Does anyone know how long ago they were put "on the boat"?

End of October I think is more likely.

Does anyone know how long ago they were put "on the boat"?

Mid-September, I think.

We probably won't see Wave 5 in stores until mid-November, the week after Worlds.

The update date on the Upcoming page for the Wave 5 products on the boat says 9/19

There's always going to be an issue when you don't make your own product, they obviously don't plan on making us wait after all they want our money and our goodwill but things happen you sometimes have no control over.

But I'd rather delays and a good game than GWs guaranteed release but no attempt to balance.

Any idea as to wave 5 release date?

Wasn't the release date for wave 5 listed as October several months back? Or am I imagining things?

I assume it is October, then Scum in November, and Armada in December. Solid hardhitting line up for the holidays.

Yes it was. On the spanish website is still dated as such.

Edit : Armada is January, or more correctly, Q1 2015.

I assume it is October

Almost no chance for Oct. Every release so far other then the GR-75 has been 8-10 weeks from On the Boat to stores. Wave 5 is looking to be mid to late November. Nov 14th is 8 weeks.

then Scum in November

I'll be surprised to see it before Christmas. It just went to the printers about the same time Wave 5 went on the boat.

and Armada in December.

Armada is set for Q1 of 2015, it won't be out this year.

my guess is they will have some at Worlds for those going to it (think GenCon) then full release the following week. I can hope this to be true, as I will be at Worlds and have yet to get my wave 5 ships.

Worlds is Nov 6-9th and while they may have some stuff there... I wouldn't count on it, and there's very little chance they'll have it in stock the week after. That weekend is 7 weeks from On the Boat, and most stuff takes 8-10 weeks.

This would be my guess also. Suits my wallet though.
