Wave 8 is finally "at the printer"!

By ramy, in X-Wing

Yay! Took a while but they are finally at the printer.

Woohoo

Anyone remember how long the Gozanti was at the printer?

Gozanti got on da boat 10/14 so should hit stores in late November?

This means Valen Rudor has an ability finally! Which means now FFG can tell us what it is and I can start building squads around him accordingly.

Given the length Armada wave II has been on the boats, that's probably overly optimistic.

I am kind of hoping he just doesn't have an ability. The first unique pilot to not have ability, that's unique! (albeit kind of dumb).... :wacko:

Hopefully it has actually been at the printer for some time and is just now being updated. If not it could be months before we get any wave 8 previews.

I was going by the length of time the Raider took between hitting the boat and hitting shelves. IIRC was 5-6 weeks.

On the boat is typically 6-8 weeks, with 8 being much more likely.

If wave 8 just hit the printer, and I assume FFG updates are accurate, that means there's little chance to see wave 8 yet this year. It's already the end of Oct, that means it could be as late as Dec before it's on the boat, which means the soonest I'd expect to see it is February.

I'm fine with that. Although integrated astromech needs to hurry up. Wave 7 is still far from digested so I can wait for another kick to the meta.

I want the Gozanti ASAP for Epic play.

What this really means is that we'll be well into store championships with this meta.

Interesting.

I don't know why somebody hasn't simply put a printer on a boat. This way when a wave is at the printer, they can start the 45 day's at sea, and by the time printing is finished they can dock and load em on the truck.

Why not have a big printer, that can print out boats? Then you can put the big printer on the boat, and have it print out another boat that will be going twice as fast!

And still no goddamn articles!!

Yay! Took a while but they are finally at the printer.

Where are you guys seeing FFG release this info?

Feel sorry for those folks that pre ordered wave 8 with the big G... as you will be waiting awhile!! I learned from the Raider. Lol

Not me. I ordered Wave 8 & the Gozanti from my FLGS and will get them when available.

There was never a chance of Wave 8 making it by the end of the year, let's be honest. It's always been destined to be the annual February release. The timing of this status change pretty much cements that.

IMO hypertube (air pumped out) transit between China and the West Coast directly through the Earth's crust, a circle chord if you will

You know they could build a printer in the U.S. just saying.lol but then the price of a big base ship would be like 120.00

The upcoming page at the top of the site.

Who else wouldn't mind seeing a "How Its Made" for X-Wing miniatures?

I don't think we want to see the labor conditions/child labor/etc. There is a reason China is cheap.

Yo dawg, I heard you like printers and boats, so we put a printer on a boat so you can print while you boat!
