Shanester Posted June 2, 2006 Posted June 2, 2006 Has wave 3 of the LOTR series been officially killed? AFX is no longer taking orders due to the "uncertainty" of the lines release. Quote
TBT! Posted June 2, 2006 Posted June 2, 2006 Rumor has it that it's dead I think it didn't get enough store orders and was put on hold.. and now AA have their hands full with the new stuff like BSG coming out... If anyone at AA or DST wants any of the proto's to go to a very good home though, let me know T. Quote
jcastick Posted June 4, 2006 Posted June 4, 2006 Dang.....and I SO WANTED the Twilight Witchking....... Quote
Shanester Posted June 5, 2006 Author Posted June 5, 2006 Thats a shame. I am going to ask the guys at AFX what they know about them. If that doesn't work, I will harass DST & AA at SDCC until I get some news. Quote
Danny Posted June 6, 2006 Posted June 6, 2006 I still think if AFX took the Ringwraith 2-pack as an exclusive, it'd sell. Quote
antacost Posted June 7, 2006 Posted June 7, 2006 Hells Yeah It would Sell! You'd be guaranteed at least five sets for antacost... Quote
bilbofett Posted June 7, 2006 Posted June 7, 2006 The ringwraiths could be a con exclusive. These things are usually limited to 5000 sets, more than enough for us to get our NINE, my precious!! [gollum, gollum.] Come on DST/AA PPPPPPPPPPPPPPPLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote
Nestlé Posted July 3, 2006 Posted July 3, 2006 I would definetly hope on that!! Then again, I would buy Bilbo & Lurtz too... Quote
Fujis Posted July 3, 2006 Posted July 3, 2006 So will we hear the final verdict on this at the SDCC? Quote
Danny Posted July 3, 2006 Posted July 3, 2006 I bet we don't hear anything - normally cancellations just happen, they don't get announced. Quote
Fujis Posted July 3, 2006 Posted July 3, 2006 I bet we don't hear anything - normally cancellations just happen, they don't get announced. Really? That's weird. So what happens to the people who did preorder? Do they get their money back? Quote
AdyCarter Posted July 3, 2006 Posted July 3, 2006 You dont tend to pay until merch ships. For those weird sites that take money upfront they will obviously get it back, although like 0.1% of sites take cash upfront. Cancellations dont tend to be announced as what company wants to announce "No one wants our products" Quote
Cyc Posted August 9, 2006 Posted August 9, 2006 Looks like it's may be the same thing that happened to C3, not outright cancelled, but the license has expired, at least according to quick Ask AA thread over at the Art Asylum forums. Quote
AdyCarter Posted August 9, 2006 Posted August 9, 2006 Yeah IIRC over on the older AA boards we were told the license had expired, or at least it was expiring imminently. Quote
Jatta Pake Posted August 11, 2006 Posted August 11, 2006 Official line from AA: "LOTR is over. License has expired so you won't see them. We have samples, but that was it..." From Morpheus the AA webmaster. Quote
rsprin Posted August 13, 2006 Posted August 13, 2006 What about the misdc mates at the bottom of the list (Bilbo, etc.) Were they part of wave 3? Quote
AdyCarter Posted August 13, 2006 Posted August 13, 2006 What about the misdc mates at the bottom of the list (Bilbo, etc.) Were they part of wave 3? Stuff we saw that never made it out Quote
Fujis Posted August 13, 2006 Posted August 13, 2006 Some of you might have seen this over on the AA forums: ***** Morpheus: "LOTR is over. License has expired so you won't see them. We have samples, but that was it..." Me: Any chance of the samples being for sale or used as prizes in a draw? Morpheus: You Betcha Fujis - we are working on getting alot of different prizes for board members that post and contribute to the AA community so watch out for postings from Neo. ***** It'll be interesting to see what happens...if anything. Quote
AdyCarter Posted August 13, 2006 Posted August 13, 2006 Aye I saw that... Im not holding my breath. Quote
Nestlé Posted August 13, 2006 Posted August 13, 2006 Awww... That means we have to go back there... Quote
AdyCarter Posted August 13, 2006 Posted August 13, 2006 Awww... That means we have to go back there... Nooooooooooooooooooooooooo! Quote
