Imperial Veteran's spotted in Portugal

By KnightHammer, in X-Wing

Erm, I thought they were still on the boat, I know Esdevium in the UK don't have them on the order forms yet

Looks like they have the physical stock there but as they have given release date of the 31st May, its all very odd

One things for certain, it will be released.

Eventually

The Polish distributor also claims to have them in stock, so there may be some truth to that.

I though that all shops had to wait until everyone has them before anyone can sell them. Which would explain them being in a few places but not for sale yet.

Locally based online retailer has Imperial Veterans listed as "Pre Order: Release date to be confirmed". However, they ship preorders the day before release so people will get their orders on release day; Imperial Veterans is listed as shipping (as well as release date to be confirmed).

Assuming they haven't made a mistake, Imperial Veterans tomorrow :D

I think this is the case. I hope those distributors don't get in trouble.

That's what they said about the Starfield tiles!

Really? Wave 8 wasn't released here until a week or so later than the rest of the world. And then the supplier shipped it the day before Easter, so we had to wait another week.

Maybe small far away countries aren't counted.

MUST HAVE IMP VETS NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(Sorry, I'm really excited about Defenders and Bombers to be hitting the tables again)

I think the 'worldwide' publication date is EU/US only.

ALL HAIL VESSERY!!!!!

I'm excited. Sounds like it may be the week after for release.

We'll see. They've been promising Veterans since January, and keep delaying it.

"Keep delaying it"? The closest we've had to a release date is the quarter listed in fhe artivle (which everyone should know not ro believe by now). Theyve never given us another date for thrm to be delaying it repeatedly

Yes, some shop's already received the imperial veterans in Portugal, but unfortunately they can only start selling them in the 31 of May, by indication of distributor.

usually stores receive the product before it actually releases, so that when the national "release date" hits all stores have it. Most people forget that except for videogames since often stores will do midnight releases for those. Wouldnt be surprised if most the stores in the US/EU have them or will have them Tuesday.

IF Tuesday is the date, I'll be happy. I've got to go to one of my FLGS to pre-register for a tourney next month anyway, and picking up an Imp Vets box would be great. New tourney list thoughts...

It's actually still listed as on the boat. IIRC the Portuguese distributors and shops are the worst at getting the dates correct, especially for EU releases, let alone US releases.

One things for certain, it will be released.

DAMNS... why you gottah be so mean Brah?

This makes my regional this weekend really interesting...

Work harder... faster... betters!

There was mishap back in January of 2016 where the distributor in Spain accediently released a deluxe box expansion for the Star Wars LCG. At the time it was accidentally released it was still listed as in development on the FFG website. Here in the USA we still don't have it but should within the next two weeks.

From what I hear last year wave 7 was released a month early in Italy and I think that they're being punished (or perhaps relegated to the end of the queue) by FFG as they apparently don't have wave 8 yet.

One things for certain, it will be released.

Eventually

Eventually can be a very long time......
