Big Ships on Preorder

By Patriarch, in X-Wing

YAY! think I will just get the rebel transport with the x-wing lol

I mainly want the x-wing!

I would check out some older posts on the rebel transport, people are very dubious of this wayland pre order.

there is currently a licencing issue holding up this product

Is there any info on this. What licencing issue?

Miniature Market here in the US has them for preorder. They even have a picture of the packaging for the rebel transport, so I would believe them to be legit.

well for that price they can keep them, i would rather pay the rent.

too expensive.

i have a small shop and i contacted the main supplier for ALL the UK retail out lets and i have the trade price for these minis,

the mark up is between 50 and 70%.

i wont be getting any more. sorry have to draw the line somewhere.

i think that ffg should bring out new upgrade and pilot cards.

I dearly looove this game but I have to put my foot down......no product, no money. With FFG's track record lately we'll see them around.....March..no, wait.....June......wait for it....July....

Make your own big ships till you can get ffg regulated minis. No worries. When ffg releases theirs, we will have even more epic battles.

I have no problem waiting for a superior product as long as they don't extend it longer than say February early March. As for the cost having seen them at GenCon I have no problem spending that amount of money on that quality of ship. GW is ridiculous, FFG isnt. Those ships were amazing looking and are going to be huge set pieces to display all your ships around at the very minimum. In my opinion even with the big ships this game is so much easier and cheaper than anything GW is going to offer ever again. The price gouging from that company is ridiculous and I never thought that the prices for the big ships was overboard, especially with them pre-painted.

I like to support the little guy so tell us which shop you have....Give it a plug dude

Helps that I am in the UK also

There seems to be a rumour that they have yet to be approved by LucasArts, something to do with the fact they are in product on the new films.

Living in the US I will not be buying product from outside of local stores, or US based online markets.. these new ships have already been pushed out, April??? Probably june or july.. their history is telling in this situation. Fortunately, one doesn't need much more than we have to enjoy the game.. I'm not a fan of adding these capitol ships to the mix.. just to big and bulky in my opinion...

As far as the Interceptor box, I can repaint ships and use the cards that come with it.. whether it is 'released' or not.. the information is out there so they are usable in my view..
