Odd thing I've noticed. The ACD distributor as well as a couple of the stores I buy from show the main game, but not the prepainted minis in stock.

The release that just came mentions the minis as available in the FFG web store?

Are they even going into distribution?

I just received the Game fron coolstuff but the prepaints are still showing as preorder.

.....exactly. Ditto Boards and Bits. The Alliance new items page shows the boardgame, but not the minis.

These are a FFG Collect item, which means that their availability through distribution channels will be very limited. I would guess that preorders placed on old AEG announcement of these would be cancelled on the retail/distributor level, unless they want to special order them through FFG.
