Ok, this is not about the fact that everyone will own one even if the rules suck. No, this is about how I look at painting logs online, and am seeing far more Mountain Kings than I should, for the release date being months away. How are all these people getting this Unrealeased model so early?
Yes I'm partly jealous, hell, who wouldn't be. I saw apparently Lock and Load had some early, but still.
Seriously, does anyone know how or where everyone got one?

They were pre-released at Lock and Load and there were 75 released. That's why you are seeing so many I myself have some but I just haven't been posting any WIP pics so far :P

I think you'll be prising them from their cold dead hands if you want to get at one
You're only chance might be if someone splurged on several in a wild moment of madness; but I doubt it.
But yes - its tormenting to see the MK all over the place - esp when poor Everblight hasn't even got a finished dragon to view and keep our eyes half sated as we wait.

Wouldn't be surprised if they used the other con/shows to release some of the other Colossai. Last I recall seeing the Circle one is mostly finished and the Legion was being detailed up. So the Circle could easily be up for a limited product release, with the Legion following soon after

I'm guessing he is planning for unbound games? Can you not take more than 2 at those point levels?

Field allowance is per Warcaster, so yes. Unless they make a rule to contradict this. Originally Posted by omerplata

They're also selling some at other conventions, including comiccon in San Diego. My buddy just picked me up one there.

Considering that they are near on £100 each I expect they will indeed have a focus toward games that allow for larger armies than normal; mostly because its the kind of model you purchase after getting a substantial army. Originally Posted by omerplata
