FFG Acrylics

By Shado, in X-Wing

Ship stands and stems - yes.

Tokens and templates - no.

Pegs and bases only.

Yes, to have replacement pegs and stands would be greatly appreciated.

I've already seen a nice crack in my Slave One lower peg that needs some superglue to keep together.

You can contact FFG Support and get pegs for free, same for bases. just give them the amount you need to replace them.

Not everyone lives in an area where there are tournaments.

I haven't broken them yet, but would be more willing to attempt magnets if I know I can revert back if I fail.

FFG Tokens & Templates - absolutely YES

As to the argument that it impinges on competitive play support, make those different and better. I just want official tokens that don't wear out like cardboard/paper, and don't want to have to pay $10 a token on ebay because I don't live in an area that supports competitive play.

No

Yes, the tournament prize ones should still say champion on them but themed or plain official ones would be awsome

FFG has already stated before they do not wish to make their own acrylic tokens but would rather have 3rd parties make them. With the exception of small batches for tournament rewards. The cost of making and maintaining an inventory of them was not considered worth it.

Pants.

i gotta go with mustard

Yes

Should FFG sell officially made acrylics; yes or no?

Cast your vote!

No long posts please. Keep it simple.

(I post this because I'm curious as to what the majority thinks. As much as I would like to see it happen, if it were up to me, I would still support the majority votes decision. It's the democrat in me.)

You are asking about a vote from a small percentage of FFG's player base, if you really think the "majority" of FFG players are here on the forums please reconsider.

I'm aware. Not expecting this to influence any FFG decisions. Just saw the topic being discussed in another thread and wanted to perform this experiment to appease my own curiosity, if anything.

Yes

Replacement cardboard tokens: yes

Keep the fancy stuff for prizes

No, at least not templates and tokens. Pegs & bases would be great.

I vote YES.

No. I found some amazing ones on these very forums for a fantastic price. I got the ones in the thread called ACRYLIC HOTNESS and love 'em. They were the same or cheaper than all the US options that are all boring monochromatic.

Yes

They already do.

Where?

Already being discussed herehttps://community.fantasyflightgames.com/topic/185575-we-want-to-buy-acrylic-templates-and-tokens-from-ffg-dont-we/

We don't need 2 topics discussing the exact same thing.

And yes, I am aware of that thread. This wasn't for a discussion. It was an attempt at a tally.

Seems a lot of people miss things!

I'm more interested in some of the older Alternative Art cards, and would gladly trade my acrylics for those... :)

To answer the question, no. Nothing wrong with the 3rd party stuff, and it would degrade from the prizes. If FFG switched their prize support to something other than acrylic replacements, then sure...but that's a different story.

Even from this small sample, it appears there is a fairly even split near the middle for and against FFG doing acrylics for sale! So said, it appears some of the no's wouldnt mind if there were other prizes or special acrylics as prizes if they sold regular acrylics.

Profit margin would be the only real holdup to FFG selling acrylics is what Im seeing! Gee, isnt that the MAIN REASON for all business in the end, profits! If a business isnt making money, they wont survive.

Yes

Yes and yes.

Yes takes the lead, followed close by No! Mustard still struggling way behind in third place!

What happened to pants, did they drop?
