As nice it would be to see these, I too feel its highly un-ethical before WotC (And the rabid Halflings) give their permission. Frankly I'm a little suprised of the amount of people asking them to be mailed to them...

E-mail sent with pertinent info, Lidda. Hope it helps.

Remaining discrete for the simple fact that the WotC team has shown a tremendous amount of interest and support for their customer base via this website over the past few months. Very few corporations have staff members that seem to genuinely care while Lidda, Shoe, Ian et al, while cryptic and aggravating sometimes [:D], have really given us (their customers) outstanding support. Therefore, as a token courtesy I won't spread this info around until after somebody says "cat's out of the bag" (at which point I doubt I could possibly get the info out fast enough [:D]).

Clearly someone, somewhere is violating a non-disclosure clause/agreement/whatever. Signs point to someone close to the manufacture/paint process.

Good! I am sure you can count on the fans here that have seen it to keep it underwraps. [:)]

Cool. Glad Lidda and Shoe are on it. While I am crazy with curiosity over the photos, I can wait.

It will be more enjoyable to see see Shoe's previews. What would we have to do on Thursdays if we already knew the whole set now?

Yup. Mum's the word. What fun are spoilers this far out, anyway? I much prefer the anticipation of "what new and exciting thing will we see on Wednesday evening/Thursday morning?" [:D]

Even the Scry spoiler for War Drums (what, about a week 1/2 early) was a little saddening (kind of like finding your Christmas presents early as a kid).

I'm going to lock this thread. Long story short, some pics showed up that were not official or a clever spoiler somewhere in a module - they were instead misappropriated from the production process.

Lidda / Shoe have asked that I lock this thread for now.


They expect some sort of statement to come from them (wotc) Monday-ish on the subject.


I want to thank everyone who's kept their self-control and not flooded the place with these pictures. I know there is a bit of mailing going on behind the scenes and no one can prevent that. I would ask that you keep in mind that the sales of these figures and the health of the product line provides the livelihood for lidda, shoe, talafenix, mdonais, etc. This job puts money in their pockets and food in their mouths and whereas many of us would do quite a bit to have their job for a time (who wouldn't want to play with toys all day) it is still their source of income. Keep that in mind, as things that leak early or outside the process can cause damage we fans can't see.

Thanks again for everyone being so easy going about this.
