Also the dakka text search worked to find HBMC's post... that was a bit spooky too! 
Panic...

It would be nice if they did a run of the plastic figures available seperately to the game. They sell regularly all the time on eBay, there's a clear demand. But when did GW bother making money the easy way by giving customers exactly what they want.

Most likely recalled all unsold Store copies, and put online.
Nothing overly suspicious.

They said "limited release". That doesn't mean "limited first run and never do it again". I believe we will se more Space Hulk, it's selling like crack.

And no one has said that it is. In fact, what I said would happen is exactly what has happened and was completely expected.
Stop seeing anti- GW conspirators wherever you go and leaping to GW's defence. It's very silly.

No but some implied earlier to expect a second print dressed up as 'look wot we founded in the back!'
I think you need to stop picking fights over nothing.

Considering there are still unsold copies at my local GW, I'm not surprised they might have dug up "a tiny quantity" of extras...

They probably asked various stores to send overstock back to the warehouse, and then once they're collected, put them on sale. Either way, Hulk ain't going anywhere for at least another year. So all the people paying stupid amounts on eBay are going to feel pretty daft about it... Mad Doc Grotsnik wrote:I think you need to stop picking fights over nothing.
Hey Kettle, I hear the Pot's got a message for you. Something about being black? I dunno. You'd have to ask him.

That is EXACTLY where those "found" copies come from. The GW stores with unsold copies are boxing them up and shipping them back to the warehouse as of today so they can be sold online. This is not speculation, I'm an "eyewitness" to the facts presented here.
