Hmmm it looks like the Banshee is already in the Archive. Also that list is a lot shorter than I was thinking it was going to be.

It looks like the Pinto(20-287) is already in the archive. Is that a change, or was it already there before the announcement?

Wow, a few surprises from the list. The Mechbuster fighter? I bought four last year, and the Emperor as well. The Fox Corvette too. Not surprised your archiving one of the Blood Asp's as two is too much. Glad I ordered a Annihilator earlier this year though. One question though, didn't you just rerelease the Banshee as a online exclusive? Why archive it so quick?

And yet the Quasit abides. Muhahaha!

One of these days I intend to get eleven more Quasit mechs just to see someones face when I put them on the table.
I don't set an example for others. I make examples of them.

Dunno about product codes, but there is a Pinto VTOL and a Pinto WarShip. Perhaps one was already archived, and the other is now going in?

Well as a just in case, I just ordered a few of these soon to be archived designs. If worse comes to worse they sit waiting to be painted for a while but at least I will have them.

That's what I thought, but i think the product code of the VTOL matched the PDF. I don't have time to really double-check now.

Just a few more days until they go into archive. Buy them now without the archive fee and as a reminder if anyone goes to the conventions that IWM attends all archive products are sold without the archive fee.

At the end of May we will announce the complete Archive List and then July 1st they will enter the Archive.

FYI...people are most likely going to point out that Monday is not July 1st.

Correct...but his statement reads as if it is this coming Monday...not the Monday after next.

I totally forgot what I originally posted. Going to confirm with Mike. When I posted the poll I figured July 1st they would be in archive but in my later email from mike June 23 /24 was mentioned.

This is unrelated, but I was wondering have a lot of the 2750 Aerospace fighters ever been made? My friend has most of the miniatures ever produced and I was surprised to see he didn't have most of the 2750 fighters, nor are they on the webpage (there are 3-4 exceptions). Wondering if they were produced at some point but then later got axed?

If you so not see them in the online exclusive Fighter (mech scale) then they have not been done. More of the fighters have been done in the Micro scale then mech scale.
