Will B-Wings and TIE Bombers EVER restock??

By KTreu42, in X-Wing

For real. They are the only 2 ships I still need to fill out my collection of small/large sized ships, been waiting to get my hands on them for months. The Interceptor and some other ships got restocked in the meantime, but not those two. Does anyone have knowledge I don't?

If you're in the UK, Chaos Cards has B Wings and Tie Bombers in stock and both seem easy to get hold of on eBay for reasonable prices (for a change).

With B-Wings being the netlist sweethart, you're going to have pray harder.

No, they're never coming back into stock. After the global thermonuclear war, they'll be one of the most prized currencies due to their rarity.

(Something that's worked for a lot of people in the past is to check your local Barnes & Noble store, if any, because they buy lots of stock and don't sell it off as quickly as FLGS stores do.)

I checked B&N online, for some reason it doesn't give me the free shipping even though together the 2 ships are over $25. And I can't justify paying all that shipping plus tax (boo) since I've gotten so used to the cheap prices on either miniature market or Amazon prime.

"I've gotten so used to the cheap prices..."

boo hoo.

your post is a rant about how badly you want them and then you ***** when someone finds them.

I didn't "*****," nor was my post a "rant." How is it an issue to ask around about saving money?

I got a gamestop gift card recently. Had no idea what I was going to do with it since this is the only game I play these days. The short story: I ended up with 2 bombers for about 10$ out of pocket thanks to that gift card.

B-Wings and bombers are currently "on the boat", so they will be restocked soon(-ish).

At the top of the page, click on the upcoming tab, then select miniatures from the all categories tab, and you can get a rough estimate of how releases/reprints/etc. of x-wing stuff are coming along.

I saw one in my local B&N just a couple of hours ago. Almost bought it, but I want that tasty, tasty free shipping on $99+ once Miniature Market gets them back.

I had no idea Gamestop had X-Wing stock. Interesting...

Also good to know, I hadn't seen that before!

I don't spend that much at a time, I just need those 2 ships to own one of each small and large ship (staying away from epic ships). Plus I want them advanced proton torps! :P

"I checked B&N online, for some reason it doesn't give me the free shipping even though together the 2 ships are over $25."

I just put them in my cart and got free shipping.

I just put them in my cart and got free shipping.

I found out what it was. I had the 20% off coupon applied, and the price gets cut to just under $25 which makes the shipping cost return. Kinda lame.

Then don't apply the coupon.

......Thanks, I think I figured that one out. Doesn't really help the matter though.

You can't find ships, you are pointed towards ships. You want lower prices, you have a coupon, you want no shipping.

You do want a lot don't you? As we say, a front row seat for a dime.

All I did was ask if anyone knew when the major distributors would restock. I have a price point. I appreciate the suggestions and pointers. I do not appreciate the condescending, unfounded jabs at my fiscal choices. Post something constructive or scram.

Will B-Wings and TIE Bombers EVER restock?

Yes.

Then get more of them. There's very little use for a lone TIE bomber anyway unless you're Jonusing two HLC TIE defenders.

1 or 2 waves at a time, they just restock 1 & 2, I'm sure wave 3 & 4 to include those B-wings and Tie Bombers will be next.

So...to answer the OP...they are in stock in several places.

This is all I was looking for, thank you. Sorry I wasn't perfectly clear that I'm curious when a full restock would occur from the big distributors. If I was willing to blow my bank account for the thing I can find places to do that. That was not what I was asking.

you did not seem to be looking for general information but a way to get the ships.

Good news, it looks like the b-wings and bombers just got off the boat according to the upcoming page.
