Just in case there is news for all of us hopefuls. Lets post it here.

So...where's the news?

It appears that there is none. T_T

Yeah there appears to just be the flotilla s I saw a partial picture.

where at? If my hope is dying then I must see it with my own eyes!

I'm at work, guy on the lgs page posted a photo of imp assault and I saw armada in the next case, just saw the gonzo and the gr75

Links to said page? You know, for science?

Edit: Or, at least the name of the lgs for some search fu on google.

Hopefully, that big empty area behind the ships will be filled soon.

thanks for the link! It is my understanding that in years past they put things out bit by bit. Is this true?

They should rename it to splash 3. It ain't no wave.

Nevermind the space behind... Those things look pre-painted! :D

Do they? Looks like a wash on bare plastic to me :)

The FFG Wash doesn't adhere to the base plastic very well.

If its a Wash, then its not on Bare Plastic - its on Paint that's very similar to the base colour.

But it won't be on the plastic.

Break a Victory Open and see how the Wash affects the bare plastic vs. the Surface and you'll see :)

Of course, that won't discount the possibility that, I'm wrong, because they have some sort of new-fangled wash just for these, compared to the wash they've bulk-used in the past on almost every other model...

Or the fact that I'm just wrong, because those tags say "NOT FINAL PRODUCT" and they've been Doctored up to look better when the release will actually be plain... Who knows.

Dude, you are going to lose the bet. Just accept it and move on young skyshuffler.

The core set fighters took a wash quite well- this looks like the same plastic to me.

Your Wash.

Not FFG Wash.

haha glad I didn't take that bet! But no!

I'm good with being wrong... especially since no product is on the line!

Show me those engines! If they got a dab of blue, I will concede this primary.

No news is not good news. :blink:

Puts you one up on Kasich.

To some.

To Some, its quite alright.

I'm calling it now...those things have been gloss coated and a thinned out wash has run over them.

The cargo pods on the GR75's aren't painted various colors...these are as bare bones as bare bones gets...which points to the theory that the factory is overwhelmed....and they slipped in a cheapo wave on the back of Rebellion.

Which I'm cool with....but I can bet that these guys are gonna get the ole repaint from myself.
