I see on coolstuffinc the release date for Dark Times is 1/19/10 yet I can't find anything on wizards that indicates there is even a set coming out. Anyone have any insight into to why wizards doesn't even have an ad up for Dark Times while we are hypothetically less than two weeks away? Did their marketing team commit hari-kari over Christmas break? Or are they scrambling over at Wizards cause of the crap version of Axis and Allies Pacific 1940 they just released? I can keep going so someone please chime in.

It's going to be released on the 26th of january i think. That's the date i've seen several places, including the online store where i have preordered my case from.

Even if it is the 26th, shouldn't wizards have an ad and previews up by now?

According to my LGS's owner, it is the 26th.

FWIW, he had the correct information for the GAW release date all along, so I believe this to be correct as well.

i love it that wizards can't organise themselves enough to put an announcement on their own website.

Sadly, that's par for the course when it comes to the SWM web team. They are horrible. Even when they do update the SWM side, there are usually errors. A person with basic HTML programming skills could do a better job.

I have heard whispers that it got bumped back a week but nothing permanent.

FWIW, I have heard from several people that the new Axis and Allies is awesome. One person even told me he is planning on selling Anniversary Edition to get the new ones.

They did update the main SWM page on wizards. If you follow the link to the product page, it has release date of January 26 listed.

Nineteen days before the official release? About time, if you ask me. It's pretty sad when a set gets more buzz from unofficial rumor sources such as Bloomilk and SWM Gamers than Wizos itself. That shouldn't be happening. At least not to this extent.

Their pretty bad when it comes to updates. What, like half the previews last time were figs we had already seen on Bloomilk. Star Wars.com has more set info then wizos!
