Well if they sit unused untill they are available dwn at the store is an asshole move. But if you go out and play some games with them, show the new plastics off, you know do some good ol free promotion for wyrd. I don't see what the problem would be.Spiffersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10823311066538492340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3516893911157413904.post-66097328665954821202012-12-18T15:56:03.623-05:002012-12-18T15:56:03.623-05:00I completely with your post in just about every wa...I completely with your post in just about every way. <br /><br />You did leave out two problems Wyrd is creating that have earned, maybe not disdain, but certainly concern. <br /><br />1) Puppet Wars. A decent board game with great minis, terrible packaging, a high price tag and no support. I know they are (supposedly) relaunching the game, but there has been almost no information about it and it leaves early adopters completely in the lurch.<br /><br />2) The biggest issue I have had with Wyrd is this whole 'limited edition' model thing. From Gencon 2011 to 2012, including Malifaux and Pwars, there have been more than a dozen limited edition models. One or two or three limited ed models are fine, but more than a dozen is completely ridiculous and kinda money-grubbing to me.<br /><br />njakos (yetischool)https://www.blogger.com/profile/17997115562571223088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3516893911157413904.post-75408010001114919932012-12-10T05:07:12.470-05:002012-12-10T05:07:12.470-05:00I looked at the Kickstarters and decided neither o...I looked at the Kickstarters and decided neither of them were things I cared about in the least, so my money stayed well clear of them.<br /><br />The birthday sale was a bit more tricky, Swag a couple of months early is cool, but then I thought long and hard about those couple of months. What am I likely to be doing in Dec-Feb. Well Dec is out for Christmas etc, Jan I'll be continuing to clear a load of figure backlog which I've gotten anyway and Feb I can get it in the stores that month anyway.<br /><br />So you know what 2 months early means jack all to me and I'm not prepared to throw my money at Wyrd for the priviledge. From gencon I bought 3 models - 2 beckoners and Lazarus. Lazarus is still unbuilt, so do I need anything early? Clearly not.<br /><br />Unless it's limited edition there's absolutely no way I'm splashing out for it.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02082733549167473245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3516893911157413904.post-82293098953659518332012-12-09T03:43:55.759-05:002012-12-09T03:43:55.759-05:00Fuck your right, I don't need the RPG early. ...Fuck your right, I don't need the RPG early.

It has been transformed into a cheap webstore.<br />I love the new plastic miniatures, but I don't have bought any box. I am waiting that my local store receive it. I can wait.
