Perhaps it is time for Lord Vader to take a visit to FFG HQ, to put them back on schedule and explain to them that hordes of ravenous fans are most displeased with their apparent lack of progress...

Go crazy you will, if let them you do to cloud your mind by posting confusing figures for the same merchandise...

I cannot teach him, the boy has no patience

Deliver or do not, there is no estimated

I cannot teach him, the boy has no patience

Was I so different when you taught me?

"You may dispense with the pleasantries, Commander. I'm here to put you back on schedule."

FFG: "I assure you, loyal fans, our men are working as fast as they can."

FFG: We are altering the delivery date. Pray we don't alter it any further.

The FFG Games Center preorders are actually 10% off, so it's not quite as bad as full retail. The nice thing about that you know they will have it on release day, and they will have enough to cover pre-orders. They do run the Games Center like a independent store (to not screw other FLGS) so they do not get them early or anything.

"This deal is getting worse all the time!" -Lando

"These are not the miniatures you are looking for"

Never tell me the day.

Delivery date?

"No. There is another."

*FFG Post A Delivery Date.*

... ... ...

"I've Got A Bad Feeling About This!"

Guys, they get delayed because of Lucasfilm. They are the ones that delay things.

Lucas doesn't own it anymore... Disney does...

This is the most amusing thread I've read in a while.

Lucas doesn't own it anymore... Disney does...

Lucas doesn't own it anymore... Disney does...

"I had no choice. They arrived right before you did. I'm sorry." - Lando

Lucas doesn't own it anymore... Disney does...

I've got a bad feeling about this...

<Obi-Wan checks this thread>

"I've got a bad feeling about this."

"I don't sense anything."

"It's not about the miniatures, master, it's something . . . elsewhere. Elusive."

"Don't center on the release date, Obi-Wan. Keep your concentration here and now, where it belongs."

"But Master Yoda said I should be mindful of what FFG says."

"Not at the expense of your sanity. Be mindful of the announcement page, young padawan."

You don't know the POW'R of constantly checking the upcoming page!

Lucas doesn't own it anymore... Disney does...

Lucasfilm is only owned by Disney. That branch of Disney calls the shots.

Two of my local stores are rather distraught about the lack of new X-Mass material for this game.
