Does anybody know if these were limited to one copy per person?

I was in the queue from 10:00, had to wait approx 30 minutes, by which time they had sold out.

I mean, if this is how it’s going to be in future then I hope that they remove the queue feature. It’s disheartening to be patiently waiting for half an hour, only to be informed that you have wasted your time.

Tell that to SM.

Except for DA because sculptor literally didn't listen to brief and included a few spare weapon options.

And DA only because other SM captains can't take these options even though the chapter pad is separate and you can easily swap it

Really? Wasn't there one with old 'sisters' rhino? There were transfers on store model unless they were custom made:

I mean, that's kind of cool if perhaps a little unbalanced because I am basically getting free rules.
Do other armies have specialists too? I don't recall seeing a specialist page in my Necron codex.

If its 1 per detachment its not going to be that crazy.

I guess. Doesn't say that though in the specialist mob list. I'm assuming that you can take one of each of the named characters because they are Unique choices, but specialist mobs are oddly ambiguous.

Specialist mobs give up on clan rules. I think instead of custom subfactions there's going to be specialist mobs instead.

Edit: misread the rules, looks like they'd get both. Hope there's a limit on them then.

That kit actually didn't ship with those transfers, IIRC. I think it used to specifically mention it on the store page. Which, along with the price increase and the new upgrade sprue, is why they rereleased essentially the same rhino kit.

I glanced at the New Zealand site last night and they weren't. Don't know if that changed for other countries but I would assume not. Definitely could be the scalpers filled their carts with as many as they could and made out like bandits.

It has a limit of 1 in the UK. Could see it when looking at basket.

Aye, I might be wrong, but I am pretty sure the Sisters new sheet initially came in their limited army box and has since come with a large chunk of their kits, so here's hoping.

Keep in mind that Sisters straight up didn't have a transfer sheet for their kits so they HAD to make a new one for one to exist at all.

...these didn't count?

Just waited in line on the site GW site, and no sign of the release. Is it out yet on the US site?

I might just call my store here in Los Angeles and order it.

1 EST is the usual drop. Also, is there a way past the queue? I just want to browse models, not buy anything :/

You can change the region to browse during times with less traffic. I often check the pictures about half an hour after the pre-orders are up in NZ.

Or these?

Snagged my Snagga box!

In LA, (Pacific Time) 20 minute queue.

My queue time was reset several times. Went from 3 minutes to now 15 minutes despite doing nothing. Kind of frustrating.

Keeps going up and down. Uggghhhh.....

It's out of stock.

Snagga Box is no longer available for preordering on the US site. I just got out of the queue.

Well, that was a waste of time.

Wow...just wow...this is worse than a Shepard Fairey print drop on the Obey website.

There are people on eBay selling for $300 and have multiple copies. WTF?!?!?!

Yep, got in at 1:17 PM, and already sold out. Too bad!

Probably unscrupulous retailers.

So the queue time estimate was totally bogus. Actually ended up being 23 minutes from the original 3 minutes. What a waste of time.

Wonder how long GW can continue with the bad feels they create with these types of releases.

Yup, 10:01 I was que'd up for 10min. Kept growing then sent me to order but....nothing.

Way to go GW!

I would hope they look at this as cash left on the table and change their practices.

It's incredible that they haven't learn from the past and make more of these boxes. They always seems to sell out in less than a hour

Today’s war com article (can’t copy link) says the Stand alone Ork book won’t be until after the Orlando open. That starts august 14. That is very troubling news for ork players and those of us still waiting on a dex. Just thought I would get this out there

Edit. Sorry 13th

Edit 2. This release the book with a special box then the stand alone later is F-ing BS

I would guess that scalpers managed to find a way to beat the queue and buy multiple copies all in one go.

Methinks - it’ll end up as “free” pdf ala some players who want to get it out there illegally. I mean it’s inevitable.
