Light Cruiser Shortage (?)

By Mostly_Harmless_Species, in Star Wars: Armada

So for the past few months, I have been unable to find an imperial light cruiser anywhere, not from ffg, not from miniatures market, and I don’t want to pay £60 on eBay. Does anybody know about a place where I could purchase one, or why they are perpetually unavailable?

Ooh, thanks for that!

Thanks. Just snagged them.

They're awaiting a reprint, which means they're out of stock until FFG can schedule a print run and then ship it out (don't hold your breath, it takes a while).

Whenever this kind of thing happens, it's best to start phoning your nearby game stores to see if they've got some there. The scalpers on Amazon/eBay go nuts when you get these months-long backorders. I wouldn't be surprised to find some game stores keep some of their FFG minis stock hidden in the back to bust out in situations such as these.

Your welcome. Btw. I really was joking. I live in the USA ?? . Shipping plus currency exchange would be crazy. Better snag them though. They can’t be found here either.

I got 5 of them.....

A few more wouldn't hurt.

Make sure when you call, you stress Imperial Light Cruiser. I drove 30 miles to find a Imperial Light Carrier on hold for me.

Here in NZ I haven't see the imperial light cruiser, Raider or Interdictor in any stores for a long time. And only seen 1 raider and one Interdictor on a table being played so far lots of everything else. Stores are full of Victory class star destroyers.

Just checked Amazon US and in stock!!!! Only $60! lol :o :o

What a deal!

Coolstuffinc has 16 in stock for 16.99 each, plus shipping. US based, but still worth mentioning.

Np. Just wanted to make sure I was looking in the right place. Completely sold out of these in my area.

saw one at my local store 3 days ago.

but it's french version, and shipping is very expensive from here

Dang it. I’d love a different language version. That’s be cool.
