How the hell can we get hold of that for a reasonable price?

this is what pisses me off, WE CANT, EVERYONE wants these and only the people at the con can buy them from the club.

the club really screwed up by making so few of these. This board would probally in itself buy up half of the orders if they allowed people to pre-order them like the convention sets.

Agreed... maybe it's time to pick up a 25th Tripwire and some games workshop paints

It's not just that set I want... want the comic and the Argen set too.

Stupid collectors club and their limited releases.

the comic will be very easy to get, you'll be able to order it from the club store after the convention OR ( and I recommend doing both ) you can order the diamond version of it MONTHS later it will have a different cover and some extra pages in the form of profiles ( MOST LIKELY )

WE need to really show our hands of support on the comic, if we want more AF / Red SHadows stuff IMVHO

Comic's already on eBay too. Just the daft postage from the US seems to be in effect. Really... £20 to ship one comic!

Why is that?

that is stupid! your probally better off ordering it straight from the club after the convention or through diamond months later. postage will be much better than what they are offering to do it on ebay for

Hmmm, It has to be a concentrated effort or nothing at all... It's not like showing support MIGHT help, this board itself has shown that if you band together and raise your hand they do actually listen and it WILL help!

I made a comment on Larry Hama's facebook page when he said he was going to san diego about lack of Red Shadows in the convention sets. Maybe he may mention it it's a long shot I know.

Not a long shot at all I'd say, people will listen to the guy obviously so if you've peaked his interest it's a winner :D Definately worth a shot though, without a doubt...
