Buying Wave8+ in Australia

[ReqMan]

Hi all, just wondering if anyone else in Australia is looking at buying Wave8, Ticalla Jungle and/or Aquilla's Alliance from House Mouse Games?

Reason I ask is, I am looking at placing an order but the box can fit lots more than I wanted. So, if we can combine our orders we can save on shipping.

Any takers?

I'm waiting patiently, hoping that WotC will bring it to Gencon in BrisVegas.

I'd love to go but my friends cant make it and going on my own on the hopes that Heroscape will make an appearance wouldnt be much fun. Plus, the wife wouldnt be too happy :P

Perhaps we can get some confirmation whether WotC will be showcasing and selling the latest Heroscape stuff?

Ok, so I now know there are 2 Australians looking to buy new HS stuff... any others?

I asked a question about HS recently in the gencon oz forum and this was the reply...

I'll have to tell you,

Shame about the tournament though...

*EDIT* I got to mention that I have a friend looking to buy wave 8 stuff as well, so that makes three...

Oh whao! HS at GENCONOz thats great. Hope everyone else has got their tickets already.

[ReqMan]

Sweet!! Now I really do want to go!

But does that mean that you'll be able to buy the new stuff there in the quantities you want, or is it all just there to showcase whats out.

Whitestuff, is your mate going to genconoz as well? How much were the tickets?

That is the million dollar question. Will there be exclusives? Waves to buy? Jungle? I have no idea. I guess we'd have to contact WotC Oz to find that out.

Yes, we are both going. We only live a couple of hours away so we can just drive down.

I copied the pricing from the Gencon site...

I'd love to go, but flights from Sydney + accommodation would make it too expensive.

So I guess I have to keep looking for some other aussies who want to buy the next wave of heroscape stuff. Surely there are more aussies here??

I got a piece of floor you can have

BTW, did you know that some of your sig links are busted?

[ReqMan]

hehe, thanks whitestuff. I think my wife wanted to go as well though, which means me, wife and baby on the floor? :P
Still, I think the flights are the most expensive part. I might have to give it a miss this year.

So now I'm still looking for any aussies that want to buy some new Heroscape stuff and share the shipping costs. Anyone?

To join my wife and 5 kids? The more, the merrier

My friend just told me that he put in a big order (wave 8, large heroes and 2x jungle) from HouseMouse. I'd have to ask about shared postage but it's a possibility.

So are you guys going for the full 4 days? I guess this would have the best discount. See you guys at Con.
