Besides adding the Archive Special Return winners to the website for sale. I have added the Limited Thunderbolt for same and the Special Combo Deal of the Thunderbolt and Hatchetman. The Combo Deal is $30 dollars and is only available for November.

I ordered the pair last night, along with some of the archive returns and some ASF's. I can't wait!

Alex Keller · « **Reply #2 on:** 02 November 2011, 13:06:46 »

Oooh, what does the limited Thunderbolt look like???

JPArbiter · « **Reply #3 on:** 02 November 2011, 13:24:32 »

time to order that binary of Arbelasts

I am going to go out on a limb here and assume the Bounty Hunter lance packs are being withheld for the sake of the PDF releases. but what about the rest of the schedule and the online exclusive stuff?

I didn't like the fact that the jump stand was so tall, so I modified mine to be a non-jumper.

And the jump stand for comparison.

Sorry I don't have an as-intended "jumping" pic. Hopefully this'll give you the idea, though.

Alex Keller · « **Reply #5 on:** 02 November 2011, 14:22:06 »

Thanks, Dark Messiah. That is one huge jump stand!!!

MoneyLovinOgre4Hire · « **Reply #6 on:** 02 November 2011, 16:55:22 »

So, um DarkMessiah, why'd you bother getting the Limited Edition Thunderbolt instead of the standard T-Bolt that was in the 3085 Lance Pack (and is set to release on its own in another month)?

Daishi411 · « **Reply #7 on:** 02 November 2011, 17:13:05 »

if things are going up on the site, are you going to fix the Koschei 5I parts?

Because at the time I purchased it, there was no 3085 lance pack yet.

MoneyLovinOgre4Hire · « **Reply #9 on:** 03 November 2011, 11:52:57 »

Weren't they both released together at GenCon last year?

DarkMessiah · « **Reply #10 on:** 03 November 2011, 12:29:14 »

No, the Thunderbolt dropped at Origins, the 3085 lance pack at GenCon.

MoneyLovinOgre4Hire · « **Reply #11 on:** 03 November 2011, 16:56:52 »

Oh.

Well, that's what you get for saving money by going to Origins instead of GenCon, then.

Well, to be honest, I went to both that year. One of the benefits of living in Ohio: you're close to the two big gaming cons.

Speck,

I was planning on ordering these, but I was hoping to wait until the Bounty Hunter sets came out to combine shipping. Is it likely they'll be out before the end of the month?

The bounty hunter sets will not hit the web site for several weeks. There is always a delay in new releases to the website . I will have the web release date up in the coming soon entry this weekend.

how do we know what mechs come in the clan star packs, the ones that i looked at didn't have anything listed for contents like the IS packs do. as far as i can tell only the wolf packs have contents lists

BlazingSky · « **Reply #20 on:** 05 November 2011, 21:41:36 »

The Bounty Hunter set is exceedingly nice, but I was hoping for the Mad Cat BH, not the S. And a C-Bill medallion would have been nice :D

Very nice! Though I'm kinda curious as to why the FWL got the original Reseen Goliath, when that mini is a Steiner model, and the Mariks didn't get their own until TRO 3085, and I'm pretty sure looks very different. ??? Also, their light/medium pack got the Hermes, when their iconic scout is the Hermes II.

Hermes II is fixed, that is what it was supose to be but I forgot to put the "II" when I entered it into my excel sheet. As for the Goliath, I am going off of the RAT for 3052 obviously we can not put a unseen Goliath in the pack. So a reseen is being used.

Daishi411 · « **Reply #32 on:** 06 November 2011, 15:40:42 »

it's really nice to see some archived mechs in these packs, we get even more value out of it that way

MoneyLovinOgre4Hire · « **Reply #33 on:** 06 November 2011, 16:51:02 »

Indeed. I'm tempted to order a Ghost Bear Heavy/Assault Star just for the Kingfisher, even though I've already got two Kodiaks and Gladiators already.

I have pestered Mike at IWM multiple times about this -- they are swamped with orders from minis companies and so they are behind. You have to have the arm -- it is useless to have the torso and chest pieces without the arm. Hopefully soon... Maybe when the Blood Asp variants are put up this week or next.

Yeah, it stinks to wait. However, it is great to hear that IWM is swamped with business. It's got to be a good thing to have a lot of business!

I thought I had them at home but could not find them ( yet ) in the minis hoard. I know beyond doubt that I have held the masters in my hands ( I might be misremembering that the metal masters I held at IWM were ones that I had ordered and received at home ). In any event, the Dragau and Tiamat ( with landing gear retracted ) in micro scale have been sculpted, mastered and will be found and released.

Cool, thanks! I just ordered two -5I conversion sets (torso, torso plates and arm) along with two -3Is. As much as I would've liked to see a separate mini rather than a conversion set I think this could be kinda fun. From the pictures the torso plates kinda scare me but I'll hold out hope that it'll be easy.
