Someone in this thread works in WH Smiths and confirmed that it is on the system.

It's meant to be available in WH Smiths tomorrow at some point

Just doing my morning catch up with the sports news on Sky and Conquest had a 30 second TV advert on, makes sense with today being the street date for issue 1.

Nipped into WHsmiths on the way to work and it was being put on the shelves

Popped to Tesco this morning they didn't have it yet.

Seems me delivery should be here soon, as it was processed on 24th August.

I suppose there is no service to ship issues to the USA? I'd definitely be interested in having a subscription delivered somewhere and then get monthly or bimonthly mailings across the Atlantic.

Hit up the Loot Group in my sig, provided you’re on Facebook. Helpful Nerds Being Helpful!

Looks like subscriber delivery 1 is issue 1 and 2, glue, clippers and file thingy and was processed on the 24th.

Yarp.

Usually takes a week or so to arrive, going on my experience with their other partworks.

Hung around in WH Smiths with a few other shifty looking nerds as the boxes were being opened and the contents put out,

the manager was pleased as we decimated the stock as he had a Marvel Superheroes and a toy car partworks also launching today, and not enough space to put them in

Picked up a copy of issue 1 in Co-Op this morning.

Just noticed that I've not actually been charged for my Forbidden Planet preorder, does anyone have experience when they actually put the payment through? IIRC their website said they'd be getting issue 5 in around the 7th of October.

As an aside - I bloody hate that, just charge the sodding card when I make the order so I don't have to bother remembering that such and such is going to come out of this or that account on whatever date. If I want to cancel I can cancel, that's what the distance selling regs are for.

They had loads in my local W H Smith this morning, bout 12 copies. The brush feels like any normal starter brush like you get in the paint+models sets.

GW Stores are also getting a handful in today.

They charged me on the day they shipped them.

They're also in Asda. My son bought 13 of the things.

13!? That's a lot of Macragge Blue!

I considered a 2nd. But decided I didn't want so many of the same pose (already have these 3 from First Strike).

Also though I'd leave the only other copy in the little newsagents for someone else.

Ten for himself - that will give him 3 full strength squads. And three for a mate who's just starting on Space Marines. The bloke in the shop sent someone off to get some more out the back shop.

Black paint will get used, gold will take a bit longer, then there's a lifetime supply of Macragge Blue.

Saw them down a couple of local corner shops this morning. Got two for the paints more than anything, the marines will just go into the bitz box.

£5 gets me 2 sets of Auspex dudes, regular Intercessors, and a better Sergeant pose for the squads. With a bit of cutting and some bitz I can kitbash one of the regulars into an Auxiliary Grenade Launcher or something.

Pretty good, along with the paints!

I have 1 coming from Hachette and 3 that have already arrived from Forbidden Planet. Had a quick attempt last night at adjusting the marine poses. I reckon they can be switched around a bit to vary them but need ideas for the empty/auspex hands. I figure a couple can have bolt pistols and I might be able to fashion some to be holding grenades. That is the only thing holding me back from picking up a couple more copies. That and the Macragge Blue, of course!

Picked up 5.

I needed the black and gold for my Custodes, and the blue will be donated to my friend who is a massive Ultrasmurf fan boy. The kick-start to my new Primaris Minotaurs force proceeds well!

I've been pondering doing a small Primaris force of Celestial Lions, which are gold with blue accents. This works out quite well! I probably won't get every issue, but 3 Intercessors and 3 Reivers will make a great kill-team, for example, and getting characters like the primaris apothecary for £8 rather than £18 or whatever is a no-brainer.

Amazing, some scalper already has a copy of issue 1 up on the popular auction site for 8.99 with another £1 postage. Some people.

Just picked up 2 copies of Issue 1. Full size paint pots and £20 worth of Easy to Build Primaris Marines. Very happy.

Comes with a poster of that sweet Ultramarines art that's on the front of the Space Marine Codex. Very happy.

Must be a little bit touched in the head, since you can order back issues from Hachette anyway. Or just hoping to catch someone who doesn't know that. Either way, yeah, scalpers are scum

Haven’t looked in any shops today as I got multiples from forbidden planet.

If shipped on the 24th I’d be expecting it already really, so hopefully it comes tomorrow. :(

Yeah I’ll end with all this Blue, thinking I’ll have to start a blue force of something. But what, don’t want to to UM, but maybe another Primaris Force that uses Blue..
I dunno, something I’m sure..

Dethskulls! Blue is lucky!

Just ordered 10 from Hachette for a Looter.

Think they'll be selling a few. Just seen an advert for it on TV!
