Question: Will these include the reskin sheets, or is the printing that had those included sold out?

A friend just ordered one, and we're wondering what he should expect.

Phil must be busy so I'll throw in my $.02. I believe the W23 Battlefields does not include the reskins, I think these were kickstarter only. I thought I remembered during the campaign that was how it was going to work. The description doesn't seem to indicate the extra cardboard either. The description states that there are only 4 buildable (3D) Ogres included which would account for the main battlefields 3D sheet(ninjax2, vulcan, fencer).

Unfortunately, I think if he wants the bonus cardboard, he'll have to make them himself or hit Ebay. Base box is still alot of cardboard, though(as you well know)

I'm sure Phil will be along to corroborate this or reveal that I'm wearing my hind quarters for a hat.

Speaking of Battlefields, any idea when the KS ones will reach Europe?

It's my understanding that you're correct, or at best they're a first printing exclusive, so I suppose a better phrasing of the question is "Is there a chance the w23 early birds will get leftover ks copies".

There were no Kickstarter exclusive items.

The set on Warehouse 23 is identical to the copies that were shipped to Kickstarter backers.

The shipment is with our fulfillment partner. As soon as we have news, we will share. Unfortunately, we have zero control over when those items are shipped out by the fulfillment warehouse.

Unless we open a warehouse on every continent, we are _always_ at the mercy of others when it comes to international shipments. Our only other option is to stop trying to ship from within regions and mail everything from the U.S. . . . which would increase costs for backers.

We're doing what we can to get international rewards to backers as quickly as smoothly as possible. We're a very small team and do not have complete control over the postal systems.

There was no critics implied, just asking if you had received feedback from your partner.

I am well aware of the difficulties of international shipping and thankful for your efforts.

Just trying to keep in front of the situation as best we can. Unfortunately, we don't get as much information as we would like. In a perfect world, we would have immediate and direct access to the details of every shipment.

We're looking at a new possibility that _might_ improve our international fulfillment processes.

Well apparently, as is often the case, I'm wearing my hindquarters for a hat.

In my defense, though, the description doesn't really lead one to believe the reskins are in there. Nice that it wasn't exclusive, there were several people who couldn't afford it at the time that now have an opportunity.
