Has there been any indication when some of the other crew boxes will be re-done / launched. I know lillith mother of monsters is due later this month. But what about pandora or Sonna Criid?

The only things that are known are that the sets released at gen con (minus Tara, who's coming out late next year IIRC) are scheduled to be the first to come out. There's been some issues with the Viktorias set, though and it's unclear if their molds are getting redone or if there's just a problem.

Guess I'll stick with my metal Raspy for a bit longer. I want to do pandora but rather than buy the alt and loads of metals I'll just wait until that set is out.

Rasputina's "Children of December" are out October 25th, according to thewarstore.

But it's the Marcus box I'm interested in. Any timeline on that, being that he's Wave 1?

From what we've heard, Wave 1 may extend into Q3 next year or even beyond. No idea how Wave 2 might fit in there, if it'll be concurrent or get pushed into 2015.

I say this because they've said that Tara's box is tentatively slated for August next year, and at the rate of a couple boxes per month, they're going to be at this for quite some time.

But the war store has been the best source of info recently, Wyrd themselves haven't (last I saw) put up an actual listing for the coming months/quarter for a while now.

I think the manufacturer (China's Wargames Foundry) has been busy fulfilling multiple clients (Dreamforge and Secret Weapon Miniatures to name two, plus their own line). We'll get there, but we're not there yet.

Thats interesting to hear. They used to lay it all out and that was something to look forward to and share. Not following the GW method are they?

Well, that's the strange thing. The War Store isn't making this stuff up, historically they've been quite accurate. They presumably get the info from their distributors, whom get it from Wyrd.

I guess there's enough uncertainty that Wyrd doesn't want to be held to an official schedule, but obviously they have to tell someone about this stuff. There've been QA issues with some previous plastic kits, so that might be a consideration.

But yeah, I used to look forward to the "what's coming in the next 3 months" posts too.

Of course, we're now around 3 weeks without an official release for Through the Breach. Maybe Wyrd has just given up on the idea of official release dates. :-P

You just had to go and pee in my cheerios on this didn't you Forar? :(

You think that's bad? This is what I found on a cursory glance at the beta forums:

Miggidy Mack wrote:I'd tell you if I could! I revised the testing schedule based on information I had from production a few weeks ago. I wanted to take advantage of the additional time, rather than letting the game sit around ready to print while we wait.

However, the information I had at the time was very precarious. As soon as we know something, we'll be putting out a KS update about it. And I do mean, AS SOON as we know a hard date. We won't be sitting on that information.

So basically no information yet, who knows when we might hear, but at least they'll tell us as soon as they know.

... being text, this may be coming across more snarkily than I would otherwise intend. I'm actually more disappointed than anything else.

I think disappointed is my general feelings about seeing TtB before the waning days of 2013.

Considering that people were saying Mack was pretty involved in M2E's beta testing, I think my biggest concern currently is that it'll happen with wave 2 as well. Doubly so since I believe wave 2 might go until Dec/Jan, or at least have the option to do so.

I think Justin and Eric are handling most if not the lion's share of the wave 2 beta feedback... Still doesn't sit well with me that a solid date hasn't been set now that we've blown past the expected shipping date
