Sorry to be the bearer of bad news man. I was afraid someone might get tagged by that. I didn't expect to actually (in a manner of speaking) know that person.
Yeah... I never saw the Box art for the preview prior to bidding. Only saw the render. I have no doubt the sellers are "safe" on eBay, and I'd wager that many ( most?) aren't trying to be deceptive. Just seriously bummed right now...
Maybe someone will want to buy/trade for the regular Hannah at some point...

There's a chance the limited one shows up at black Friday on the webstore. Last November a few rare things showed up as prizes for different dollar tiers. (miss step, alt perdita plastic, and miss terious I believe)

Its the same concept, but very different in execution. The exclusive one is holding a book and a censor for incense. The other one is in a "Hulk smash!" pose, which looks kind of goofy IMO. I've never been a fan of mech suits where the pilot is in the center and completely exposed to being shot.

The real one, the LE, is better looking in person and the proportions are on par with what you'd expect with an explorer.
She's a very reasonable sculpt, in the proportions, and in my opinion, they need to get rid of that silly Hulksmash pose.
I'm honestly interested in them because of that Hanna model that I got in the pledge stuff. Matter of fact, I could see getting a few of them for a crew.

It's a simplified version of the ones in the boxed set, and was a magazine promo. IMHO, not really worth much more than a single witchling.

What are the actual release dates for the new Dreamer and Kirai boxes and the new rulebook? Money is kind of tight but if its more than 3 months I'll take the plunge now.

Usually Gencon prereleases come out september-january, don't think they've put out a release list for the fall yet, though.

I've bought a couple bits and bobs from the Wyrd store during Gencon...
Have I bought this stuff for it arrive as soon as it goes on Public sale, or am I going to have stuff before my mates who didn't order?

This figure would profit a hell of a lot with multipose parts. Arms, legs, heads, and bits. If I were Wyrd, I'd seriously start looking at foot soldier/ minion multipose kits.
And snacks at events? !@#$ me, that would be exciting to get a sprue of around 2-4 figures that you could mix and match parts.

Last year only a few people got their stuff in advance, in my case my local store and my friends, etc. were able to get their stuff before my stuff even shipped (but in that case I specifically only ordered the book and the nightmare edition, the rest of the wave wasn't released til later).

That's actually a cool variety of zombies just for general use.
...is "Mindless Zombie" even a Malifaux unit? I don't recall anything like that even for the Resurrectionists.

They are summonable indeed, very usefull with the Mwhuahahaha upgrade (or however it's spelled again). For a 0 action you get corpsecounters with a move value  . That said, I'm glad I got the West wind victorian zombies, fit a bit better with Nicodem imho and scalewise similar to the old models, of which I have quite a few. maybe a bit small for the plastics.

In the RPG you can have a few hang out with you as part of your minions and summon them.

Waldgeists will make fine dryads for my greeks. Those hoarcats are huge... I wouldn't want to meet one (yes, city dwelller here, no need to remind me of wildcats.)
Those silurids... how did Wyrd know I was looking for Deep Ones right now?

New Zoraida loses points for not being gross tits out, but I'll probably pick up her crew. I already have them in metal, but given the scale creep and Bad juju's much better 2.0 stats I may as well start using the likely bigger and badder plastic version. Wasnt a huge fan of the old silurids anyways.
Hoarcat pride is a huge upgrade over the little kitties from before. Are you supposed to somehow cram all 3 on a 50mm base now, or are they supposed to be based individually. Before they were a swarm unit or 3 cats on one base. Waldgeists and moleman look super too.
Graveyard spirit looks like a Scooby Doo ghost. Primordial Magic same stupid concept as before. Good luck not breaking those hanged ropes.
