I'm sure SVC will reply here sometime soon. The last I had seen is that it would be a while still, as there were tweaks to be made to the masters and the guy at the casting house had been out for several days (not to mention all the extra things that have happened to ADB lately).

I'm eagerly looking forward to this batch too, but it won't be for a while (which is a bummer).

As am I... but the delay will give me time to paint some other miniatures... of which I have just a few. :wink:

I'm painting away too, as well as doing the final tweaks to my decal art.

Hmm. Thought I'd give this a bump. Any news?

Just within the last few days, SVC announced on the other board that the Battleship box will be due out in January.

Tis the season....

Put em to work with the rest of the elves! I hear they have a great medical plan-- living forever. Problem is they have bad teeth. Apparently Santa's elves have an ungodly long life, but their dental plan won't cover a steady cookie diet.

And while I'm on the subject, does anyone know where I can find a santa sleigh ornament. It's time to play "raid Santa's sleigh." Can't remember which Communique it was in, but my son loves to blow the piss out of things with it.

Do you think we can get a battleship variant for it?

So would the designation for a Santa Battleship be BS?



I am SO getting a lump of coal for this one....

That's so wrong, on so many levels...

I was also thinking....

Santa is a spirit, so you should'nt have an easy time spotting him. He should have a cloak, until he "drops" off some presents/ uses elf marines, etc...

Wasn't it last year when we were treated to a ship card of Santa's sleigh???

Yeah, but you gotta watch Santa's 360 photon arcs.
