Impact! New Releases for GenCon 2009 (complete list)

Ted Striker wrote:
Just a thread to beg for GenCon previews before next Saturday.

While I can't attend GenCon, I have a friend who is going and is willing to pick up some things from Impact for me.  However, I have to give him my cash  Aug 1st.

So I was hoping that we could get a few spoilers of the new stuff being released with prices.  So far we know about the potion guy and the vampiress.  Will Nothing but Net be on sale?  How much?  I got to get me a copy of that, quite excited about bloody hoops :).

Will the entire Impact catalog be on sale at Gencon?  By that I mean the smaller stuff like basing supplies etc...   I need plastic bases and magnets and would rather Impact take my money... but I completely understand that smaller stuff like that would be a pain to lug to a con for a lower level of sales....

Thanks for any info.  


Okay Ted ... GenCon info:

1)  Nuthin' But Net will be for sale.  $15 per a copy of the game.  I'd don't think we'll be organized enough this year to be demoing it but we will have it for sale.

2)  Our entire product line will be for sale at GenCon.   We have a smaller booth this year ... but we do plan on bringing at least 10 of everything.

3)  We'll have all 4 of the Gale Force 9 Warmachine Terrain for sale in our booth significantly discounted (33% or more) from the $95 price they originally sold for by GF9 last year before being discontinued.

4)  We will have the RollJordan Horned Frog team (no Big Frogs from him yet).   Along with his Werewolf and some of his other figures.

5)  Here are the new figure releases for GenCon that we have not already shown (I'm going to have a section for new releases on the shelf so they are not buried this year).

Elfball Dungeon Tiles  ($50.00)  includes all pieces shown
This is a trial run of this product ... we currently only have 9 sets and not sure if we'll get more


Elfball Cards  ($10.00)  
Each turn a player takes one card from the deck.  When the deck is empty the game is over (includes a system to break ties).  Makes Elfball a fixed time game per a test.


Bertha Giantfist ($14.00)  .... shown next to Vampiress Thrower  (she will sell with a Prone/Stunned token included)


Beer Garden Beauty #2 ($4.75) standing next to Medium Cooler and Small Cooler
Beer Garden Beauty #2 comes with an alternate arm to replace beer can arm holding a bag of cash


Large Cooler (1 cooler with 2 inserts) $5.00


Medium Coolers (2 coolers and 2 inserts) $4.75 and Small Coolers (2 coolers and 2 inserts) $3.50



Halfling Hot Dog Vendor (Limited Edition of 200)  $8.00


SSB Orc Thrower (Limited Edition of 200) $15.00  (comes with 3 other heads and a Blitzer spiked arm to replace the ball hand if desired)


Lova Taytoopoo - Ogress  (Limited Edition of 200 - Zlurpee Bowl 2009)  $20.00  (comes with a fist hand to replace hand with ball and chain)


Orc Hobimp #1  $3.50


Orc Hobimp #2  $3.50


Chaotic Warrior #1  $4.75


Chaotic Warrior #2  $4.75

gee thanks......   now I'm broke.

:)

very nice lineup and thank you!
bouncergriim

I want the cards and the dungeon badly...
Darkson

Damn - I really hope you re-do the dungeon tiles....

Better check my finances I guess!
GalakStarscraper

Dungeon Tiles ... I'm willing to sell these ahead of GenCon to folks that actually take the time to stop by the Impact! forums.

If you want a set the price is $50 USD.

Shipping cost is:

$10.00 USD for USA
$14.00 USD for Canada
$16.00 USD for anywhere else in the world

I have 2 of the 9 sets sold ... so if you know you definitely are going to buy one ... you might want to get them now before they are all gone.

If they all sell out ... I might take the Impact! display set to GenCon with me to take emails of interested parties to see if there is enough to try to get more made.

Galak
Thom

I am in awe of the forthcoming plethora of new offerings. . .

Wow, thats a huge addition to the catalog!

Very cool, I wish I could afford everything!
MyKi#1

OMG  I want the Ogress, hotdog vendor, bertha giantfist and the chaotic warriors 1&2...  Oh and nuthin but net.
You seem to have been very busy the past couple of weeks good work.

MyKi
bouncergriim

any rules for the dungeon tiles yet... or are any in the works?
GalakStarscraper

Gotta get Boulder Brawl finished first.

I have ideas but these tiles came up from a side project before I have thought of it much.

Galak
mattwakeman

Love the cards. Very professional looking.
bouncergriim

just curious tom, what was the side project the tiles came up for.  And can you describe them (what they are made of and come with)?
Norse

by "side project" Tom means "Norse figured there may be a need for these and organised it behind my back before sending me the bill "    

they are made of heavy card stock with a felt backing - in addition to the floor tiles, you also get 6 numbered trapdoors (1-6).. I have no idea why I thought they might be of use though.. I must have been drinking again..  

sadly, the company we worked with to manufature them experienced some production issues after making the sets, so unlikely we will get more (and even if we did, unlikely it would be at this price!).  All images used were originals and have not been "lifted" from anywhere else..

Put me down for one of those sets.

Mind if I pick it up from you at Gen Con next week?

I also sent you a PM with some other items I'd like to pickup ;)
GalakStarscraper

1 Dungeon Tile set left.

Looks like I probably don't need to leave space at GenCon for them.

Anyone want to grab it before GenCon?

Galak

I'll take the last one if you still have it.

I can get it at Gen Con or have it shipped to me.  Either way is good for me.

I received my dungeon today.  Yippee!  It looks fantastic and the felt on the back is very nice.  I was just wondering though about the surface, it is not "sealed" it isn't shiny and smooth like the elf ball board.  does any one know a way I could seal it (save it from any inadvertent drops of liquid on the board) without any image degradation?

Though I will say the "rougher" surface does help hold the trap doors and pit in place well.  Now I just need an opponent to try to figure out how to adapt this to elfball...

Also I have noticed the slight friction between the felt of each board piece helps them stay together better and not slip along the edges of each piece as easily.
GalakStarscraper

Dark Lord is our expert on these types of questions.

DL?

Krylon Low Odor Matte Finish.

Gloss sealers can dissolve certain types of glue.

Dark Lord wrote:
Krylon Low Odor Matte Finish.


Which, despite the name, still smells to high heaven but it smells less than the Krylon Matte Finish :-)

DL, any reason not to use the regular Matte Finish? I've found that it provides a much flatter finish that the Low Odour version.

For anyone who is curious, the Krylon sprays are designed to be used by artists and so are formulated and tested on paper, backing boards and that type of thing.
Dark Lord

The low odor still stinks but theoretically it dissipates better.

I assume the regular stink flavor would be okay too.

Avoid gloss tho, for sure.

Now Gencon is done and dusted. I'm looking forward to seeing all the new releases in the Store. I'm particularly keen on Nuthin' But Net and the Vampire Thrower.

Galak, when will all the new goodies be in the Store?

I'm updating the PHP and database scripts to allow me to update all the currency amounts whenever I want in a few minutes so I can stop all the wonderful customers that email me to let me know I'm charging them too many USD, GBP, EUR, AUD or CAD compared to one of the other currencies.  

Spent all yesterday programming my little heart out to add these fixes.  I think I've just about got it figured out ... as soon as that is added ... I also included a way for me to very quickly update and add in new products to the store with the same code ... so the new stuff will show up very shortly.

If you did not buy the SSB Limited Edition Orc Thrower ... we sold a lot of them at GenCon and Zlurpee ... so there are not many left ... just a heads up on that.

BTW ... Majortusk's paintjob on Bertha Giantfist is very cool.

Galak

The paintjob is top notch but the figure still looks like a guy with breasts...sort of like Meatloaf in 'Fight Club'.

All new items for the GenCon releases are now in the store!!!!

We are very close to our August goal that will allow me to stay home and be president for Impact! full time ... so I hope you can find the ability to order this month.

Thanks!

Tom

Order placed.

Good luck Galak.
DG_Slider

Galak,
Have you had enough interest in the DB tiles to warrant having more made. If so, please add me to the list and PM me if you do run another. Just consider me as a set already sold.


Also, the more important question:

Do we have release dates for the kobold minis, chests, bombs, and balls set, and the vicious mini yet? Shipping is expensive for me so I try to place large orders and just want to know if it worth waiting or just place an order now?

They'll be coming out in stages.

Our current release schedule for Impact! looks like this:

October:  Lord Dorian and Spider Smith for BBFigs.com; Buggers and Deathroller from Rolljordan
November:  Headslicer for Impact!; Frog sprues for BBFigs.com
December:  4 new Hobimps and Backstabber
January:  Type OH! Beauty and Pumpkin Queen
February:  Treasure Chest;  Bomb sprue and Chaotic Marauder #3
March:  Black Widows Hunter #2; Night Elf Striker #2 and #3; Night Elf Hunter #2 and #3

(subject to changes ... but this is the current plan)

We hope to slowly release new items to the market without the mass releases we've had in the past.

Lord Dorian was the owner of Bl00d B0wl team "Chaos All-Stars"
Spider Smith was a 6-armed catcher of the same team.

These are part of the limited Chaos Cup collection

Somewhere between this weekend and October 20th to get the two new Chaos Cup figures in the store.

Lord Dorian will look like this



Spider Smith will look something like this



brownrob

Will there be a deal for the 3 latest Chaos Cup Figs, Rex, Dorian and spider? Im trying to cut down on my mini purchases but Impact still stay at the top of the list  

Looking forward to seeing Dorian also as I cant see what the pic before me loos like!!
aerofool

Great sculpts. My only concern is how well these will go with the rest of the team.

Rex, and the other "edits" done by Phil Bowen really worked with the original Phil Lewis sculpts, scale and all. They have a real strong 2nd edition feel to them, which is one of the things that appeal to me the most about the All-Stars.

Dorian's pose is a little more dynamic and the detailing is greater than anything I'm familiar with in the 2nd edition. He looks a lot like one of Granny's current vampires.

The picture of the Spider green is at an odd angle and in pieces. Can't really tell much, but it looks like a good fit. Being 2nd ed scale will be the key selling point for me.

All in all I do like them and I will be picking them up, regardless, to increase the size of my team.

Keep up the good work, guys!
MyKi#1

Cool i will be picking them up when released.
Will there be many more members of the Chaos Cup figs being made?

I think Dorian was a test piece for the current Granny vampires
Darkson

I'm confused, as the pics for Dorian is the unreleased Vamp Lord that Steve B did, which was changed for the Grandma Wendy Vamp team.  Does that mean someone has mad another conversion of the unreleased fig to represent Dorian?

Yes. This was the original, but Grandma Wendy decided he needed a helmet. A resin copy was made and kept by the sculptor, and they put a helmet on him and sold him as part of the vampire team.

I will of course pick up these two, but agree with Aerofool's worries. They are starting to look a bit too good now, to blend in perfectly with the original Chaos All-Stars team.  Watch out Galak; keep the quality down! (yes, seriously)
(And also watch out for the height/size of the new players)

With the best intentions

Ignore my post - I've just re-read the thread on TBB where Steve sold it.

I'm sure that Tom posted somewhere to say that further Chaos All-Stars (past and present) would be made for gifts at the Chaos Cup

Who or what these future releases will be is anyones guess but we are already covered through till 2012 with the current ones scheduled

Spider Smith goes along with them well ... definitely 2e scale.

Lord Dorian the Lost was the Owner of the Chaos All-Stars ... as such he's not meant to match up with the rest of the team as he's the owner ... he should look better than them.

Tom
GalakStarscraper

Painted image of Spider Smith.

He comes with one body; 12 arms and 2 heads allowing you to make either of these poses or one inbetween.

I want the 10 Figure set but don't really want an order for over 100 GBP worth of miniatures sent in the post. We have had some industrial action by postal workers disrupting post in the South of the UK.

@ Gav, are you going to Rocketbowl in Leicester at the end of October? If not is there someone you know that could bring the 10 figs with them and I can pay them in cash?

I wont be there, I may know someone who is going, but I am not sure ... I will ask around to see if I know anyone going.
