Roleand Posted May 6, 2014 Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 I was hoping for something official too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MasterDisaster Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 from what I keep hearing may 16th is the release date. I've heard from Simple Miniature Games in Christchurch, UK who are a distributor they aren't expecting stuff until the 19th and they are usually fairly reliable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve rose Posted May 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 I've heard from Simple Miniature Games in Christchurch, UK who are a distributor they aren't expecting stuff until the 19th and they are usually fairly reliable. Did they say what things were being released on the 19th? You would think Wyrd would be communicating with customers rather than them having to phone a distributor to find out what products are coming out!

MasterDisaster Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 I'm afraid they weren't too specific on details so I can't offer any more info than that. I assume boxes with Johana as they haven't had any of them yet. I spoke to them back in April to try and get my hands on one and was assured they were coming but their orders from Wyrd had been delayed so rather than April-May as Wyrd Chronicles had suggested it's looking more like May-June for us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve rose Posted May 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 So is Wyrd having distribution issues like they did with the rulebooks? Seems a shame as my limited monthly "toy soldier funds" will probably be going on something else that I know is getting released. I want to buy wyrd miniatures as they are of very good quality it's frustrating about the lack of communication at the moment re releases. I know they don't want to disappoint people but at least if we know there are issues and there may be no releases in May it's better than not being told anything.

MasterDisaster Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 So is Wyrd having distribution issues like they did with the rulebooks? Not as far as I'm aware. It could be Wyrd having distribution issues or perhaps releases have been delayed to ensure the highest quality of product, for example, I know a while back Ophelia and Somer were delayed so they could increase the number of totems in each box as one wouldn't be enough to effectively play the crew and thy would have needed to release another box just for additional Skeeters / Young LaCroix. On the other hand it could be totally out of their hands and be down to the USA Postal Service or whoever is shipping the orders over to the UK. I've had dealing with USPS in the past and frankly they are pretty bad when it comes to getting stuff over to the UK. This is merely speculation though, nothing concrete to say one way or the other ------------------------------------------- EDIT Just checked Wyrd Chronicles Issues 11. Says May we are due to see Somer Box, Gov. Proxy, Dawn Serpent, December Acolyte x3, Convict Gunslinger x2, Punk Zombie x3 and Bishop. Hopefully we will see the lot of them released but I'm not holding my breath for Somer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flindo Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 Som'er is going to happen, Wyrd has upset gremlin players too much in the past they don't want to lose customers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Porkenstein Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 I am looking forward to the Somer box. I was disappointed that the Brew Master and Ophelia box were pushed back. Hope nothing pushes the Somer box back, but I do understand problems with distribution, etc. Some things are out of your control no matter how much you do. something always goes wrong, you just plan the best you can and pray it's something small.

HandsomeDan Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 Someone finally found something: http://www.imperiusdominatus.com/2014/05/malifaux-may-releases.html edit; Looks like it came from the news page. http://wyrd-games.net/community/page/articles.html/_/wyrd-news/may-releases-r21 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zFiend Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 Som'er looks amazing! Finally a Gremlin master for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bengt Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 So the releases page says "Johana is a special edition model that will be initially available through retailers." (emphasis mine). Does this mean it will be sold normally sometime in the future? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan Caroland Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 No plans too, but I've learned not to paint myself into a corner. She may never show up again quite bluntly, or at the end of the year I may decide to toss her in every online order for a week, or she may be given out wholesale to henchmen to hand out at demos .. who knows. That being said, always like leaving an option for ourselves. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loveless Posted May 8, 2014 Report Share Posted May 8, 2014 Man, Bishop looks awesome - as do the December Acolytes! They need to hurry up and get in the local store Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterDisaster Posted May 8, 2014 Report Share Posted May 8, 2014 Dayum! Bishop looks pretty sweet as do the Gunslingers.... I recently bought the old Bishop and have been using Gunsmiths as Gunslingers.... Looks like I'll be buying new ones!! Also I begrudge buying Gremlins but if thats the only box coming with Johana then I'll jump in feet first! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PraetorDragoon Posted May 8, 2014 Report Share Posted May 8, 2014 I need that Dawn Serpent Plastics look awesome. I especially like the look on Lenny's Piglet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duck21 Posted May 8, 2014 Report Share Posted May 8, 2014 Will European retailers get Johana ? Nobody said they won't, but nobody said that they will either. Wyrd been very economical with information. Also is this only for brick and mortar retailers ? Wouldn't it be a logistic nightmare to separate batches meant for brick & mortar shops from the ones going to online stores. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loveless Posted May 8, 2014 Report Share Posted May 8, 2014 I think all of the crew boxes shipped in the next couple of months have the potential to include Johana - just sounds like Somer's will definitely have her. Or am I reading it wrongly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merry_HangedMan Posted May 8, 2014 Report Share Posted May 8, 2014 So this May we have the first of the much awaited plastic Gremlins and to celebrate Som'er's box will contain a human they captured by the name of Johana. I'm a bit confused - Johanna will be in all Somer crew boxes or only in those that are purchased from local B&M retailers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keranis Posted May 8, 2014 Report Share Posted May 8, 2014 I'm trying to toss money at my monitor in hopes of them magically turning into that gorgeous Dawn Serpent - but it doesn't seem to work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tuttleboy Posted May 8, 2014 Report Share Posted May 8, 2014 I'm a bit confused - Johanna will be in all Somer crew boxes or only in those that are purchased from local B&M retailers? Only crew boxes from B&M stores. It also says that it will be for the "upcoming months". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenton Crack Posted May 8, 2014 Report Share Posted May 8, 2014 I'm a bit confused - Johanna will be in all Somer crew boxes or only in those that are purchased from local B&M retailers? They have not, to my knowledge, announced which crew box will have Johanna each month, but it will rotate from one crew box to another each month, and yes they are supposed to be brick and mortar retail boxes only. So it may be the Somer box initially, but next month it could be the Viks, or whomever, as I do not recall them even saying it was to only be brand new crew boxes.
