Wandered along to FP Shaftsbury avenue at lunch - I counted at least 6 Wraithlord issues - Top shelf, hidden behind some of the jetbike issues

Lots of both the jetbike issues available - picked some of these up for me

There were even a few issue #1 in stock.

[Frogian]

isn't there 3 jet bike issues?

although isn't there only one sprue? so maybe its just 3x that sprue in first two and the stands in the 3rd one?

Yes they are doing 6 bikes over 3 issues. Each bike is on its own sprue. You get 2 x bikes and 2 x stands in each of the three issues.

ah great, so just need 3 of any issue rather than all 3

[Frogian]

got 4 copies of issue 28. Didn't realise there was actually 3 types of sprue with different canopies/heads but doesn't really matter, paint jobs will make them look a bit different. Will have to work out how to convert two to a farseer and a warlock.

No idea which way around I did it but I picked up a total of 3 across issues 27/28
I dont play eldar (or much at all generally) but I am tempted to get 3 more issues to have 12 bikes in total.

took a wander to FP  at lunch and didnt get more jetbikes however,... issues 7 and 8 were on offer for £7.99 each so grabbed one of each for some more bodies for the swarm

 

more still on the shelves

Plenty of the latest issue there too

Such a shame there aren’t more FP stores around. Closest to me is Cambridge I think and that’s a couple of hours’ drive away. I’ve managed to snag the wraithlord and first two sets of jetbikes but I may not be able to get into my local shop in time to get the third issue next week cos I’m off out to work too early. Bit annoying if I end up with 4 as you need the multiples of 3…

It can be a bit hit and miss - particularly popular issues never make it to the shelves or you get one half of a set.

 

FP, Newstand and buymagsdirect all have 29 available online though I appreciate the deliver cost kind of kills off the savings

Can at least do 3 and a farseer/warlock with a bit of conversion.

If I had a farseer/warlock to convert it with … :p

Hoping that issues 37 and 38 are the Hellbrute as predicted and popped in a two issue subscription with Newsstand.

How are you doing that? The Newsstand website wont let me purchase anything beyond issue 30.

[01RTB01]

I'd like confirmation if chaos terms are one issue. If they are, it'd be rude not to grab some.

Under Subscribe here I used the drop down to select issue 37 and make a 2 issue subscription

Has it actually been possible to buy single issues from hatchette?  Complete missed out on the Chaplain biker, but was thinking of picking up some of the later issues like the zerkers.  No locals stockists sadly, and last time I checked I couldn't pre-order more than a single magazine each time from forbidden planet (would make it cost inefficient).

[skylerboodie]

Picked up the three issues of Windriders at Forbidden Planet, Shaftesbury Avenue today; had two shelves full of copies.

 

Apart from paint issues, they also have copies of the four termagants issues (reduced to £7.99); £16 for ten (& a ripper swarm) is pretty good, if you need more that is. Only other ones still in stock are Stormbringer Kharadron HQ on foot and both issues of Swampboss Skumdrekk, all at £7.99 too; just FYI in case anyone wants for cheap conversions.

I haven't bought from them direct for some time as I had so many issues with Conquest but I do check their site periodically to see where we are in terms of releases. I've never seen anything released available to buy 

 

Very frustrating that FP changed their Mailing options/prices - I understand why but still frustrating. I spent a lot more with them for previous magazine runs when 

 

Newsstand did have a couple of chaplains pop up a while ago so it is always worth a look

you can 'request this issue' to get a notification

 

They mark the price up for postage though per issue so only really economical for higher value items like the chaplain

[Frogian]

Yup, this was only 18 months ago

 

 

I went and added similar to my cart for Combat Patrol (1x 5 issues and 4x1)

 

 

Yikes!
