Wave 7 Coming Aug 25 in US?

By RoosterOnAWire, in X-Wing

Two stores in my area are saying they are hearing August 24th/25th for Wave 7 to be in-stores, from their distributors. Anyone else hearing similar things?

Still on the boat on the upcoming page as of right now. That'd need to flip to shipping now today... presuming they're on the ball updating that page. (During the in-flight they said it's top 3 for page views, so I'd think they try to maintain it... poor tie bomber on the boat for 4 months).

Coolstuffinc has August 25th as a release date for all the Wave 7 ships. Their claim of August 11th for the Raider turned out to be correct, so I expect the 25th for Wave 7 is correct as well.

Wait, why do I like this? My wallet needs a break.

Considering that when I checked early this morning, it still said July 2015, I'd say they have learned something specific in the last few hours.

As much as my wallet does need a break, I kinda hope so. Being able to pick up two Tie Punishers for the Tie MKII upgrade to use with my Vader, Juno and Fel list before the tournament on the 26th would be nice.

So then we'll have releases on Aug 11th, Aug 25th and Sep 4th? Crazy.

This'll probably be the wave where I take a little breather in terms of purchases. Maybe just a Punisher and K-Wing to start, then a Khirahz. With Episode VII stuff due out in September, I probably won't get a Hound's Tooth until after the holidays if I get one at all.

So then we'll have releases on Aug 11th, Aug 25th and Sep 4th? Crazy.

It's gonna feel like spring 2014 all over again...

Admittedly the August 11th release was a single product which probably shipped with Wave 7 anyway.

The "4th September release" is purely forum speculation at the moment. We could get a release, we could get an announcement for a pending release, we could get nothing at all.

I have heard the same about 24th/25th for August for the UK as well.

I want wave 7 to take as long as possible :( too much money.

To be fair, we haven't had a wave officially release in six months. And the only thing we've had since Wave Six was the Raider, released just last week. It's about time for some new product.

Cripes, they are shipping. Seriously, I think I'll wait a little while before I add Wave 7 to my collection. Sheesh.

now somebody needs to figure out what is being reviled Sept 4th!!

Considering the MSRP of the Raider is $5 higher than the combined MSRP of every ship in Wave 7, it's probably fair to treat it as a full release.

edit: never mind

The 25th is the street date.

Guys? My wallet has suddenly started screaming in pain. Anyone else having this problem?

I'm worried it's going to wake the neighbors.

Just smother it with a pillow because between wave seven and episode seven stuff it's done for, don't let it suffer.

I feel like I havent been spending enough! My son and I got into XWing right before Imdaar Alpha and had to buy the first three waves worth of stuff at once! Then Wave 4 came out! I was spending a lot to get caught up! Keeping up with the waves as they come seems like a breeze!

Ex. in the last month alone Ive spent over $300 with Wave 7 preorder, Raider release and an order of old ships when the Tie Advanced was on sale!! The Force Awakens new ships will see another $100 order, then Ill have a break til Gozanti/Wave 8. On average, Im well below $100 a month keeping up.

By the end of wave2 armada and wave8/gozanti xwing, i will hav espent about $1000 on this hobby, and not regretted it one bit.

inclues now about 75$ of different paints that i love

$40 on boxes, and other totally random storage/accompanying ****.

Well with all of todays craziness (which shall not be mentioned here) this slipped by me earlier today and I couldn't be more excited. I cannot wait to get my new Scum ships!!!! It sounds like my FLGS could have Wave 7 on the shelves next week already!!!

And guess what, Wave 7 is now shipping. So, this thread is likely the truth.
