Ordered issue 20 from Newsstand today.

 

Thanks so much for this, I set up a 2-issue subscription for 19 & 20 as those were the only models I wanted from the first 2 sets!

I wouldn't pay 14.86 for an issue from them

 

A 1-issue subscription is £13.19. Given the mag is a tenner, and 2nd Class Large Letter postage costs about £1.50, paying a £1.70 "premium" (which also needs to cover the cost of the packaging and labelling, and someone's time to handle it) is hardly extortionate, especially when you can guarantee these will be hitting eBay for upwards of £23 each.

 

I mean it would cost me more to travel to the nearest Forbidden Planet and buy one off the shelf at face value (assuming they even had one in stock)

If the issue doesn't show available as a pre-order you can set a subscription for one issue.

I have just done it for issue 19.

It hasn't debited my credit card yet and isn't showing as a pending transaction either though I have received an order confirmation email.

 

 

If it's anything like Forbidden Planet, they bill your card when it's time to actually dispatch it.

I've been charged this morning for my order with Newstand for issue 20. I can't comment on if others is the same though, just that I've been charged straight away (which I prefer).

Yeah as it happens I have also been charged, for both 19 and 20 together. That suits me fine but might be worth knowing for people trying to order the next 12 issues in one go!

Speaking to my local news agent, they advised that Issue 16 due next week will be the last issue for the year. According to them there won't be a release on Christmas day, which makes sense for obvious reasons! They couldn't say for certain whether or not there would be a release on 1st January though.

That does basically match up with what Newsstand is saying with release dates, although Forbidden Planet is showing completely different dates!

[Fluxeor]

From a facebook group I'm in, for subscribers the 1st special issue (and extra cost) will be included in the 19-22 issue delivery. The Opt-out letter is included with the 15-18 + premium kit delivery. Picture of the letter and whatnot isn't mine and comes from facebook.

The extra will cost £9.99 and will be a small mag which includes Chief Librarian Tigurius, plus lore and rules etc for him.

Worth noting that issue 26 (Wraithlord) is now sold out on Forbidden Planet, so people clearly are placing orders based on the rumoured contents.

I have to admit a small hope that it turns out the rumoured contents are in the wrong order and that people have ended up buying something like "Guardians Part 2 of 2"...

Just cross referenced with the Goblin Traders leaked list, and it is accurate so far with these releases.

I just cancelled my sub - the main things I wanted - terminators and some bonus nids ahve already come, I have no desire for orks or votann, and I have eldar coming out of my ears. I might try and pick up some of the GSC units, but I don't fancy paying for another 40 issues before I get it! 

[TheArtilleryman]

Interesting that they are doing all Eldar then all Chaos rather than taking it in turns, means if you just want one faction you can just sub for a limited run. Wonder why they did this because it’s different to how they did the first lot.

 

Very tempted to sub for issues 26 through 29 for the Wraithlord and Windriders, because that’s a great deal.

 

Issues 39 and 40 with the Wraithguard and Terminators are also insane value if you can pick those up.
