Hey guys, not sure if this belongs here 100%, but I thought I'd chime in and see if anyone else can back me up on this.

My FLGS has found out that the Manticore is officially no longer available for stockists in my region (British Columbia, Canada.) Basically, for them, it's a "bits" order, and can not be stocked, and takes several weeks to order one in on demand.

Now, I find this curious; those of you who follow IG news will know the Basilisk has been declining in availability, but this is my first encounter with the Manticore, something still listed as "being dispatched within 24 hours" from GW US and Canada websites.

So, I'm wondering, if there's anyone else out there, either store owners, or other people with their ear to the ground who might know more about this; does this mean that Manticore, not just the Basilisk might be shelved sometime in the future, or is this just Canada, or more specifically, my region, or even just the local stockists (there's only one GW store in the province, I have no idea what their stocking levels are like) being cut out of the logistic loop.

As of April, the Manticcore is still available to European stockists.
