August new releases

[fuelstaind]

Do we have a time frame when the new relaseaes for this month will be available from W23?

I'm waiting for:
Marked for Death
Crazed Caverns
Boxes of Holding

Also, when will the promo card that goes along with Crazed Caverns start going out with orders, or is it just if you order Crazed Caverns?

Thanks.

Most of the people with official answers are at GenCon at the moment, but 'typically' we hear about the new releases mid month, but it all depends when they get off the boat, and shipped to W23.

Well, these particular products have actually been announced for release in August. There will more than likely be Daily Illuminator announcements when these actually start shipping. Given that it's only the 6th, I don't think we need to worry about whether these are "late." Heck, I can remember when an August release might start shipping in December, thanks to all kinds of external forces SJG couldn't control. . .

So, to recap:

1. The people who can best answer that question aren't in the offices and less likely to be able to answer that question.
2. The Daily Illuminator is your friend, and is frequently used to announce not only upcoming products, but also when those new products are actually released and shipping.

It's the "Official" teaser, rather than just Andrew doing it.

They will start shipping from distributors to retailers anywhere from a day to a week before we announce in the Daily Illuminator that they are shipping. They'll be in stores a week or two after that happens. You'll just have to be patient.

The promo card will be available directly from SJ Games, either via Warehouse 23 orders or at conventions, and from our Men In Black once we get it sent out to them.
