Okay guys, some have started getting their second shipment, and I'm sure those of us who are waiting would love to drool over what you got. List it guys.

Oh, and while you're at it-is sergeant Howlett an awesome sculpt, what are his points, and is the head removable? These are all important questions I need to know for...reasons.

Due to the delays in producing the hard plastic enforcers and peacekeepers mine ended up being just a jiffy bag with the free plague zombie sprue and merc card deck in. Still, it arrived within an hour of my Battle Systems KS stuff turning up so it is still a day full of new toys

Sweet. Merc deck. What's Howlett's cost? I want to have him leading my Avenger team, so semi important. Haha

Howlett? 17 points.

Oh man, my opponents are screwed!!!

The head is attached to the body. It comes in 3 pieces - Body w/head and legs, left arm, right arm.

Way to have your first post be an absolute crushing of my dreams. Lol. Oh well, that's what clippers and a dremel are for. Howlett needs some shaggy hair...

Yeah... 17 points is a freaking steal for what he has over the 15 pt sarge. At least he costs you rep in campaigns.

Anyone come up with the alternate sculpts for the rebs commander or 1st gen? I'll be happy to show mine off but I'm in the states and last shipment got missed and showed up 2 months late so... I'm not the best source for breaking news

For a Rebs commander alternate sculpt, I'd go with the sniper chick from Sedition Wars. Mine is gonna be painted like a certain lucky mutant who never misses her shot, and has tussled with the likes of Wolverine and Cable in the sheets...she's got a penchant for hairy old men.

Well, yes, I totally want to use my sedition wars sniper too... But The limited resin 'spent too much on deadzone' figure, is what I'm after

Totally misunderstood. Blame the tequila I am unfortunately not currently imbibing!!

Damn phantom inebriation, claims the common sense of so many!

So when is Wave 2.2 (including forgefathers) supposed to start shipping? Wasn't it August 9th?

10th, I believe.

Confirms 10th for forge fathers.

I don't remember getting in on Forge Fathers or Asterians at this point, and still haven't received my second shipment. Sad panda.

Well, they've been sending them this week, so barring UPS worldwide overnight, or telly-porta technology, I'd say you can expect at least a week. Maybe more if their shipping estimates were... over-ambitious.

The way I'm looking at it is ForgeFathers arriving @ Mantic HQ tomorrow means another 3-5 weeks before I have any of my stuff in hand. Roll on, October!

Got a shipping notice that it's been picked up in Nottingham and is due to my house tomorrow. While I'm at work. Then on a date to Guardians of the Galaxy after work....damn!! I'll have to build and paint Howlett after my date!!

Surely the date will understand... given the movie in question? . Grade notice, nothing here so far.

She demanded we go see it! She's taking me for a belated birthday. She also wants me to paint her a "hot elf chick".

Sweet, plenty of those floating around.

Am I allowed to thread jack my own thread to discuss me going out with my gorgeous Puerto Rican coworker? I bought her wine for her birthday, she got me tickets to go with her to Guardians.

Okay, on topic: Howlett in brown and yellow (80s) Wolverine costume? Or blue and light yellow (classic 90s)? Help me pick. Without assistance, I'm leaning towards brown and yellow.

I vote brown and yellow, I think it'll look better with the hard edges for some reason.

Blue and yellow all the way!

None of the options you were saying but I think the Recent x-force costume would be cool for a not wolverine enforcer. (Costume is awesome)

So right now I'm at 2 for brown n yellow, 1 for blue and yellow, and one for X-Force (great write-in, btw). People can continue to vote while the primer is drying.

On an unrelated note, my enforcer boosters seem small...should each one only contain 2 Defender/Medics with shared torsos, and a standard DZ enforcer team? I know a lot of enforcers are coming in hard plastic. But these packages still felt lacking.

Yeah the booster comes with a sprue of hard plastic enforcers (where go the shields), and the bundle comes with... two I think?

Finally saw the resin stage1 and rebs commander, looks like the stage 1 may be pointing or going "grr" or something, I think the main body is pretty close to the original. The rebs commander has a standing aiming down the sights pose, so that's cool.

Just want to confirm...the hard plastic that we haven't gotten yet contains the bodies for the Defender Shields, and the single resin body in each baggie is for the medic? If that's the case, cool, I'm set. If the defenders are supposed to be resin as well, then I'm missing 8 bodies!! I'll probably have more questions coming up soon, hoping to get them answered on here, because Mantic has their hands full, and I don't want to bug them unless necessary.

The mission control has been getting updated with pictures. Let me check it right quick.

So for your booster you actually get 6 models with 1 medic and options for 5 rifles, 5 assault blade/pistols, 2 defenders, a burst laser, (can't remember if incinerator was on the sprue or not).

Booster bundle will have 2 medics, up to 4 defenders, and up to 10 of everything else totaling 12 models.

I recall the booster bundles having something like 15 models in them though... did we already get our extra specialists in the first wave?

No new votes? It looks like tonight I'll probably be painting in brown and yellow, as there have only been 4 votes.

Yellow and blue (assuming you do the triangles with blue or black).
