I saw a post on Facebook that "Confirmed" a Dec 7 release for Wave XII. Anyone else hearing that? What about Wave XIII? I thought FFG had announced they would release together?

Talked to the owner of our local store. Alliance shows the 7th for both Waves, even though they're really releasing as 1 big Wave.

I hope not. That's too soon. January would be fine with me.

But what about the children? Won't somebody please think about the children?!

Replace "the children" with "my wallet". Then I'll believe you.

Wait - we push around little toy starships and make pew pew sounds. Aren't we the children?

My FLGS (in the UK) has just announced 7 December for all 5 Expansion Packs. They did seem to be trying to rush them to get them released at the same time, and in time for The Last Jedi.

Exactly! And if Wave 12/13 doesn't turn up until January, what will we do when there's no shiny new spaceships under the tree on Christmas morning?!

Ugh.

Talk to family... I GUESSSS

Well Austin regionals will be insane......

if it is the 7th, I would think the status would have been upgraded to shipping now. Or at least it will be in the next 24 hrs.

It is a little odd; the did an update of the Upcoming page today; some Legion stuff moved to the Printer, a bunch of roleplaying stuff is now On the Boat, but no changes to the X-Wing stuff.

But then some stuff has been jumping around a bit. That said, recent average "On the Boat" to "In Stores Now" time for Star Wars stuff is about 50 days, and Waves XII & XIII have been there for 48 days; so it isn't too crazy.

[Edit: plus the stuff that moved to "Shipping Now" today is all set for release in the next week.]

So... two previews and release? Silencer first? Please?

Yeah if that's true we need some previews and that would be moving fast!

Maybe I'll get lucky and they will be out and maybe I'll get double lucky and my wife will find out and help bring some of them home.

Dec 7?

These “my store said” type of things have historically not turned out great...

Alliance , being the single distributor in the US now, though... That lends some weight.

It all depends if the postal service can handle the freight.

We all know that Official Release dates have nothing to do with actual delivery dates now

My Kid wouldn't be asking what happened...

He'd be running around the house making Pew-Pew Noises and TIE screams...

I just wanted to continue the rhyming chain.

Sure when he does it he’s “playing”, when I do it I’m “disturbing the peace”, and “causing a domestic dispute”. I CAN PLAY WITH TOY SPACESHIPS IN COSTUME ON MY FRONT LAWN CHAD AND LAURA!!!!

(and yes that’s a joke, and no I don’t do that. Also chad and Laura are fictitious but there nice people... I think.)

I wonder if there will be an official article on the 7th... historically releasing surprises on the 7th has been a bad idea.

Context on the internet can be a real pain.
