| I just got my weekly email from Vesivus and it had the following in it.
quote:
Don't ask us how we did it -- we can't tell you. But... we have the COMPLETE & FULL SET of WAR OF THE DRAGON QUEEN miniatures in the store and on display. ALL of the cards are present, so come on down to take a peek. This is an opportunity you're not going to find anywhere else -- come down to Vesivus today to get a jump on your fellow Skirmishers.
(Please note: none of these miniatures are for sale yet -- they are for display and to 'feed the buzz' only).

| | There's also the Small Fire Elemental floating around in Canada. Maybe Canada's getting some promotional love for this set (trying to generate a buzz/increase sales)? | |

| Ummm, what're we going to talk about for the next four weeks while we wait for the release if we know every little detail now?
I say close the floodgates, batten down the hatches, jib the mainsail and curb the appetite. Or something like that. Let's keep a slow steady flow of new and interresting information to keep us piqued. | |

| The earlier the better. People should just make sure to put spoiler tags on stuff with spoilers in them
At that point, people only have themselves to blame if they look. | |

| Better drive fast and have a good memory. I just got this new email...
quote:
Hello.
Well -- what an exciting day. Mere minutes after emailing the fact we had War of the Dragon Queen on display we've been peppered with phone calls and emails.
I've just found out that there has been a misunderstanding, however. We were only lent the set as a promotion -- we must give it back this evening. :*(
Although this makes us sad, we were glad to have seen the miniatures & cards. We will be returning the set of miniatures after today. If you can make it here before our closing time (8:00 pm tonight), you can get your peek in. After that, however, you'll have to wait until the official release to see these.
One caveat, and this is to cover our legal side, there will be no pictures OR note-taking. Just gawkers, please. There will be no exceptions to this rule.
John
