I think it will be easier to just check the forums to figure out when MM will ship out my pre-orders. I hope it's next week, as opposed to the week after.
WAVE 8 IS SHIPPING!!!
So this means the release date of March 17th is correct I assume? No sooner, no later?

I'd presume so. It'd be lovely if the street date could get moved up to early next week, but my last Store Championship of the season is scheduled for the 13th and I'm not seeing a way that MM could get my order to me by that time.
I have a pair of SCs coming up - 20 March and 26 March. I suspect there will be a fair amount of wave 8 present, at the later one probably more so than the 20th. I plan to do a bit of Gonking myself at one of them at least.

"Best case" is 7 days to the stores (3/9) and 3 business days to you, putting them at 14th.
Anyone know when Miniature Market usually ships? I never pay attention. It's not like it really matters. I'll get it when I get it.

My last MM pre-order arrived a week or week and a half after release.

I've always had mine arrive on release day or the next day.

I really really really really hope that happens with my order...

Might depend on what shipping option you picked as well.
Coming soon to a table near you:
the Ghost,
- a potential (super) fat ship
- a potential "one-ship" build
- a potential uber-B-wing
- a potential 2-4 hit auto-blaster turret on a large base
- a potential rebel defender (Hera + 5k to kingdom come, slap on ezra and fcs at leaisure)
the attack shuttle,
- a potential 18 points to make your VCX that much cooler
- a potential uber mini-Luke
- a potential super ace for 21 points that we can all thank FFG for making only PS 5
- a potential PS 9 TLT that can't make up its mind and doesn't have to
kanan crew,
- push the limit galore (Attack shuttles, Dash, maybe even a select support option on Jan?)
sabine crew,
- connersconnersconners diepalpacesdie
the Inquisitor Tie,
- basically the Inquisitor, lets not kid ourselves, for a crazy potent ace filling a previously unseen low 30 point slot
the mist hunter,
-
segnor'sPS 3 B-wing? - maybe half decent named pilots?
- definitely crazy 1 point crew
the jumpmaster pogostick toiletseat,
- mondo torpedo boat of doom and **** target-locks
- A fat PWT that is, ironically, the least scummy of them all. Go firing arcs!
- and a buff for Tycho, bizarrely
and much much more!
this **** wave can't be out fast enough
note: anyone notice the amount of anti-ace coming out?
between the auto-blaster; bump happy (zeb crew, chopper pilot) VCX and sabine crew auto-damage bombs and the Inquisitor, an ace that hates enemy aces' autothrusters and range 3 bonsuses, and the Misthunter "**** your green dice" crews and the jumpmaster's torpedo boat + possible S.S **** Soontir configuration...ffg's hitting back hard on palp aces
guessing they're saving the TLT bat for imp vets

- segnor's B-wing?
It...doesn't have the stegnor's loop?

You arent the first person I've seen talk about sloops on the mist hunter.
I was hoping it was going to be another 7 weeks ;-p
This was the post I was looking for bright and early this morning. I had seen the status changed, but didn't see the post.
Yay!!! New toys!!
$52 CAD + tax for the Ghost. Yikes.
Where did you see that price?

So now al that's left is to place bets on when we will have it in stores. I know the street date is 17th. But are retailers allowed to sell earlier than that if they get them sooner? If so I'm guess we will see them in stores next week towards the end like Thursday or Friday?

I know Alliance keeps to publisher street dates. So if the 17th is a hard release date, any FLGS that use Alliance as their distributor will be able to pick up on the 17th, not earlier.

They are not supposed to. Doesn't mean one somewhere won't break the date.

Yeah every wave has someone getting theirs early somehow. Just seems a little long is all I guess. I mean will it really take over 2 weeks to get to stores once offloaded? I could see a few days to get to distributors and then another few days to get from there to retailers. 10 days maybe? Which means my little guys will be lonely sitting there in boxes for another 5 or so days.
ugh I ordered wave 8 WITH imperial veterans.

Yes it will. World is a big place. Lion rampant distribution website says 17th now too.
