7 weeks "On the boat"

By Hastatior, in Star Wars: Armada

Will some one please sell that man a ship. No sooner will he have it paid for and in the post (Not Australian Post FYI) and FFG will change their status page, In Stores Now!!

It would be really nice if FFG could give us some update about it, whether it be a delay or something.

Yes this.

Even if it was just "we expect to start shipping out in 2 weeks"

they have a lot to learn about communicating with their community. Do they not have a dedicated community liaison?

I say they will be available the 18-21 that way they can get some sales before the black friday deals.

You think you're sick of this? Just imagine how those sailors on that boat are feeling.

My issue is there been no mention of wave three. Is it cause wave 3 is tied to the new films. Or the huge lag between launch wave 1 and then wave 2.

Yes. Probably.

I imagine they are feeling awesome with all the sweet Wave 2 Armada that they're playing!

As above, yeah.

It's likely one of the two reasons. Remember that the Core and Wave 1 were supposed to have a simultaneous launch.

Then Wave 2 was supposed to launch around July.

Everything has been late from the Core to Wave 1, and now to Wave 2.

Part of the problem is in the production side, part of the problem is on the priority side (FA X Wing Core Set I'm sure jumped right to the top of the production queue), and part is probably just misfortune in timing.

They don't want Wave 3 to be like Wave 2 - of course not, the Wave 2 situation is pretty terrible for everyone (mostly FFG.)

So while it is possible they there are FA ships in 3, and it's possible that they are waiting for that reason, I'd bet money that is also because they don't want nearly this long of a wait period again. Not like this.

so I have bad news everyone........ Bothans were driving the boat so.......... yeah

I think they'll be on shelves by the end of November, or at the very start of December.

And Wave 3 isn't announced, because they want the Armada buzz to be about Wave 2, it may contain Force Awakens stuff, and FFG now don't like announcing stuff more than about 6 months from it's release - barring special stuff like the L5R LCG

I think wave 2 will arrive next week and so will reach US stores on 11/23 (Amazon says 24th..)

What do you think will be the time the stuff needs to reach other countries? From the US to Europe is 1/3 of the way from China to US. can we expect another 2..3 weeks until it reaches europe? some european stores estimate 17-20 December

Those of you in this thread praying FFG would give some update, learn one thing. You will know it's here when it's here. FFG has never ever set a precedent of keeping us more informed than the Upcoming page. So it has been, so it shall ever be.

Its been 31 weeks and 4 days since the original announcement.

But who's counting :wacko:

Part of me wanted to answer "Lame people with no Patience", but that would have been rude :D

Where did you find a date from Amazon?

I searched for all the wave 2 products and don't see any direct from Amazon information. There is one seller (with an inflated price) selling an ISD, but that's it.

I don't expect anything to change. Mad, no. Disappointed, a bit.

If there was a business where you sold stuff, kept delaying the release, and said nothing about it, you typically wouldn't be in business too long. To me that's common business sense. I quit X Wing for almost 2 years over the lack of product. I would do the same for Armada if it came to it.

an all time favorite!

Looks like the transports navigated off the board. I knew they should have used a nav token.

on german amazon.de when you open the product site of the english ISD version, there you can find the 24th November right under the product name written in gray and a bit smaller

It's rumored that the products got burned in China in that huge fire a while back. Not sure how accurate it is, but at least it's one explanation.

That explosion was in Tianjin; FFG ships from Shenzhen so I heard?
