I just check the product section of Arkham Horror and Lurker has the Buy Now button. When I check the statis on upcoming, Lurker is still on the boat. I am guessing that FFG is now taking pre-orders.

Now for something somewhat random, I am thinking of buying the custom dice? Are they worth the $10+ for just five dice?

I have two sets of the dice, and they are good dice. They are not necessary, but they add to the theme and I like the darker color of them then the white dice that is included with the game. I wouldn't say they are worth $10-12 though. If you have other stuff you want to buy, then you can find them online for $7-8 after shipping, but without a free shipping, or shipping it with other stuff, then the price goes back up.

I lucked out and got them from a site (www.gameoutiftter.com) for only $4 a set, and we also purchased Dunwich Horror so the shipping for the dice was minimal. That site seems to be down and has been for weeks, so I don't know what is going on with them anymore. Bestdanggames.com and Boardsandbits.com are where you can save a little money if you have other stuff you want to buy.

From the Lurker product page:

"Availability: Not yet released."

I wish FFG ran the website as well as the games they make. Thanks for checking further, Brine. and Doomturtle thanks for the other sites.

Yes it would appear that several sites are taking preorders. While shoping around Barnes and Noble after fathers day I noticed I was given a gift certificate for almost the exact asking price.
