Snow Trooper Release Date UPDATED 3rd of May

By Lancezh, in Star Wars: Legion

The Snowtroopers release date has been moved FORWARD to 3rd of May now as confirmed by my distributor as stock arrives earlier than anticipated, get cooking Admiral!

I just received a confirmed release date from my Distributor for the Snow Troopers, not sure if they are different for the US / Europe... either way, 10th of May. They also informed me that they had less initial supply for Veers than anticipated, i suggest people order their Veers now.

Edit: Added info about Veers, corrected title

Thanks for the update! Your topic title does say 'storm trooper' though.

Oh lord, down with the flu, i apologize!

sorry if this is common knowledge and I just missed it, but what's the expected street date for Veers, do we know?

26th

Seems like it. My FLGS' weekly newsletter just went out and it says they have Veers in stock this week.

I was really hoping to have Snowtroopers release the same day but oh well, this gives me more time to paint Veers!

Miniature Market have it listed as in stock, so it should be in all our greasy little hands soon enough!

Both of my nearby FLGS's have Veers in stock. One had him last night and the other today. They also said Snowtroopers would be in 2 weeks.

The Upcoming page very clearly shows the Snowtroopers with a street date of May 10 (at least in the US). I'm not counting on getting them on May 3.

I'm actually happy with the release date. I have a rule I can't buy more minis until I have painted the ones I have.

I am 4 miniatures away from being done with every mini I own.

To put that in perspective - I used to work for GW and had a 50% discount.

... and 3 of the miniatures are from the first Reaper Bones “vampire” pack... and the 4th is Netrymul the Undying

I once had a 5 year committment to paint thousands of points of every warhammer mini I had accumulated. It feels sooooo good when you're all caught up.

I have that rule, but I tend to ignore it about 99% of the time.

I know that too well, always try to go for it but doesn't really happen.

You do know that you should absolutely not finish all of them, right?...

... go out right now and buy some more - just as a buffer.

I have a Veers preorder waiting for pickup.

Its waiting because I can't pay for it right now... Let alone anything else.

I'd like to have the no new ones till painted rule. but I haven't even assembled my core set yet..... and will prob by veers this weekend if my FLGS got him in.

UK release is May 3rd. I'd be surprised if the US don't get them the same day.
