I can’t tell from FMF’s Facebook posts, when are the Crimson Moon/Red Shadows scheduled to ship? I cancelled BBTS POL stuff as the first one due last quarter was the main thing I wanted.

From what i remember, the "crowdfunding event" for the 40th anniversary waves closed a few weeks ago, meaning they had enough preorders on BBTS to go with the production. Lets say production started last week, i don't know how long it takes to get them done and then ship them here but i would say between the end of Q2 up to Q4 ?

I'm just not sure if Wave 7 is before or after the 40th anniversary waves...

Hope it helps.

Cool, thanks! I'm pretty sure it was the not-Black Major that was originally due last quarter, and then the not-Baron, not-Kraken and not-Red Shadows Trooper figures were due Q3 this year. It'd be cool to get some of these in by the time the Roboskull Kickstarter ships.

The last few updates have indicated summer for the 40th Anniversary waves (which include the shadowy homages). Not 100% sure, but it sounds like Wave 7 would come out before that (some paintmasters were already shown last month).

The names of the waves get kind of confusing to figure out what is what.

Yeah, there are a lot of balls in the air. Lotta strands in old Duder's head. Over 50 figures on preorder at the moment at BBTS.

There have been three post-Kickstarter waves: Wave 5 last year, Wave 6 that just dropped and Wave 7 that would seem to be up next.

The big wrinkle is the 40th Anniversary as an event with its own three waves and separate timeline (presumably due to new tooling required).

The other wrinkle is the 40th and Wave 7 events each had add-on figures that are not technically in a wave.

So, it's a fair bit of stuff to unpack. Can refer to Fresh Monkey's website for the event pages: 40th Anniversary and Wave 7.

Then BBTS shows which figures are part of "waves", but not which ones are the associated add-ons on the same timeline.

Personally, I just preorder and forget, then wait for updates on the Fresh Monkey FB page with a heads-up as to when something's getting close.

Thanks man! You are on top of it.

You guys notice this Eagle Force Wiki was supposed to be up to date and all inclusive and I was super excited about it but it is never updated. All of the updates are just where users were added. I know it's hard work but it can't be updated in two years time? There aren't that many figures, and the character list is long but not too bad either.

Thanks. Makes sense. I don't like it, but it makes sense.

Bill posted some pics on Facebook today of some warehouse finds (both newer and older characters, including some of the other Hidden colors) with a note that he’d be trying to get them on the site and available for sale in February.
