All three have just had their status changed today. The countdown to Wookiee Madness begins!

Woot!

Yup. My FLGS started taking preorders earlier this week.

Hurray, only 10-12 more weeks! We will get them in September.

Ha! Probably pretty close. What, 4 weeks on the boat and to clear customs. Another week to FFG then out to distributors. In our hands in 5-6 weeks?

Scurrrrrrrrrg!

HOTT-DAMM... just in time for HALLOWEEN Too!

If it doesn't spend 4 EXTRA boat weeks in limbo like the last few shipments have done, then it'll be a bit earlier than past years.

IIRC past experience says 6-8 weeks "on the boat", then around 2 weeks of whatever the next status is (I forget what they call it), then release date. So, 10 weeks is actually a pretty safe bet. I'd gamble on early release at GenCon in August with general street date in early September, since they've done that before.

Time to spare money for them !

Nice

Here's a thought. What if they've only updated the status until after they've already cleared customs and are in country?

Noice, we'll be getting them by the end of third quarter then if we're lucky

the lambda has departed!

Hey, I learned my lesson the "first" time. Well, first for me anyway. I got into the game a week before wave 9 dropped, and was crazy excited for wave 10 .... That didn't come on time. So I applied the basic timeline from my wave 10 experience and won't fall for the false date estimate hopes again.

As long as they are here for Nova Open

Nice. I already have a slip in for two aggressor...think i need to add one for the scurgg

eh. Maybe I'll get the wookie thing. This wave isn't that exciting to me.

Looking for imperial troop transport boats from The Force Awakens peh-lease, and some decent scenarios to go with em!

I guess a few more months until the LGS is filled with Jumpmaster Bombers.....I can certainly wait.

They'll be out for GenCon, then.

Then we'll get the Wave XII announcement.

Then The Last Jedi announcements in September.

Everything is proceeding as I have forseen...

So, just to clear this up for those new to the game, Wave XI is the TIE Aggressor, the H-6, and the Wookie Ship, correct? How long of a wait do you think we have for Hired Guns? Would that be considered Wave XI as well? Wave XII? Some kinda of in-between filler?

XI us just those three shipsl

Hired Guns is a Heroes pack, they come between waves normally.

I'd expect XI to have early release at GenCon, general release in early September, and Hired Guns in late October or early November.

Aces packs are categorized separately on the product page from the regular Waves, so they and Epic are a different bloc of releases. Wave XI is the TIE/AG, The Auzituck and the H-6 yes.

You can always check FFG's upcoming page for the latest status - though often that seems to have some delays before being switched over. Guns for Hire is currently listed as "In Development" which means details are being finalized by designers and playtesters and have yet to be sent to the printer (which is overseas) and where the actual production run can take some months. Not sure how long X-Wing usually takes. Presumably since it is announced, it will arrive between when Wave XI and the unannounced Wave XII does - but no guarantees.

... a boat announcement in good time, and Joe Boss and FickleGreenDice both post in a thread.

Are we stuck in a time warp?
