Quarter 2 kits?

By IndyPendant, in X-Wing

Hi all,

My apologies if this has been asked before, but FFG just recently announced pre-orders for the Q3 kits. My question is: did I miss the announcement for the Q2 kits? Did they not happen? Did FFG say somewhere they weren't going to happen, and if so why not?

Am I missing something blatantly obvious? : )

Perhaps the Store Champions kits took the Q2 slot? I just guessing here

Do they usually have kits every quarter? I thought they skip one every now and again.

They asked for preorders for quarter two kits back in November or December. I think with the new structure they will do four kits a year.

My understanding is they're now doing pre-orders for quarterly kits 6 months in advance, and it seems to have been a fairly narrow window thus far for ordering.

In order:

Yes, you missed the announcement for Q2 kits. It happened late last year.

No, they didn't not happen. Preorders already happened and the kits will be here in a couple months I expect.

No, FFG didn't say they weren't going to happen.

No, you're not missing something blatantly obvious. FFG's announcement of quarterly kit pre-orders haven't been the most visible thing ever. And the fact that they're happening 6 months in advance is a bit crazy.
