You do grasp that this kind of "I know sumfink you don't know, neener neener!" post is incredibly obnoxious, yeah? And not in a cutesy way either, just straight-up annoying.

"The language of modern British politics is meant to sound benign. But words do not mean what they seem to mean. 'Reform' actually means 'cut' or 'end'. 'Flexibility' really means 'exploit'. 'Prudence' really means 'don't invest'. And 'efficient'? That means whatever you want it to mean, usually 'cut'. All really mean 'keep wages low for the masses, taxes low for the rich, profits high for the corporations, and accept the decline in public services and amenities this will cause'." - Robin McAlpine from Common Weal |

Just as obnoxious as when someone does know something and a considerable amount of members attack that person and tell them they are full of it, don't know what they think they know or that their source is made up? Okay sure I guess its the same? Was not intending to come off as such but if that how you want to view it you are totally entitled to that opinion.

How about this: instead of posting "no one has it" and then implying that you do, why not just come out and say what it is?

Noone on this thread has mentioned that it is an event to celebrate the opening of the 100th store in the US. As I live in Japan I hope it is not this
By the way the photos have been taken down from both Facebook pages. I guess someone jumped the gun.

As bad as that sounds, its on par with the stupidity of the Imperium Secundus and Ultramar being the pit-stop for all the loyalist legions that did and couldn't make it to Terra. I'd buy it!

Asked my local manager in the UK. He hadn't heard anything about it. Said it hasn't come from head office.
So yeah it's probably something to do with the US market only.

Well if Captain Vyper does know what its about it eliminates all the options posted so far so this type of posting can be useful
(but only if you trust the poster)

I believe this might well in fact refer to the launch of new intro/starter boxsets which, initially anyway, will roll out in North American stores only.
Uses existing kits AFAIK but repackaged to make them easy to sell in less traditional venues.
Believe there is, of course, something of a narrative connecting them togther.
Battle of Verna ...? Or something like that anyway.

The poor man really has a stake in the country. The rich man hasn't; he can go away to New Guinea in a yacht. The poor have sometimes objected to being governed badly; the rich have always objected to being governed at all
We love our superheroes because they refuse to give up on us. We can analyze them out of existence, kill them, ban them, mock them, and still they return, patiently reminding us of who we are and what we wish we could be.

I don't think they celebrate that sort of thing any more, the 100th store they opened world-wide was in Amsterdam and that one was unceremoniously axed a few years ago without much fanfare or anything.

How would that work red, since there were some fantasy-based "100" pics earlier in the thread, too?
