Starkraven Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 The GW website is showing that the Bonesplitterz battletome has sold out and 'is no longer available'. https://www.games-workshop.com/en-GB/Battletome-Bonesplitterz-ENG Seems odd that this wouldn't get a reprint. Either these have sold incredibly well or they made an error in their estimates for the print run. Glad i got mine last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daedalus81 Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 Lots of the Bonesplitterz stuff seems to have sold well on the website. Three of the characters were out of stock in the US. I do wonder if they intend to print more or if they have a new, more strict inventory policy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starkraven Posted August 5, 2016 Author Share Posted August 5, 2016 Yep, the same for the UK, I do suspect that they underestimated the demand for these guys though. They're not a showy army without big centrepieces and based on figures that have been out for ages, so maybe they thought that short production runs would cover it I'd like to think that the book will get a reprint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lordippon Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 Many things are "Sold out" and later they come back. It was the same thing with the Flesh Eater boxset. I don't think stuff disappear without having been on the "Last chance to buy" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think stuff disappear without having been on the "Last chance to buy" Well, there is no 'email me when there is more' button, which I think highlights the difference in how they view stock - they do a print run and maybe don't expect to sell everything for quite some time and so don't calculate another print run in availability. If books show back up on the website it will most likely be because they pulled some back from retailers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dez Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 Da Mek's iz workin' on dat button, but instead of emailz it sends out a Gore-grunta and a choppa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starkraven Posted August 8, 2016 Author Share Posted August 8, 2016 And it's back. https://www.games-workshop.com/en-GB/Battletome-Bonesplitters-ENG-SB GW really need to sort out the messaging on their website. I know a few people who panicked and bought them off ebay, they were at a decent price though, but still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daedalus81 Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Well, if it is like I assumed above (and giving the timing it probably is) then they brought stock back instead of print more, which means the availability is an unknown until they get them.

Actually, the message was correct, they've sold out of the hardback versions and the reprint is softcover only. Makes a lot of sense really as the soft cover can be printed in smaller quantities.

daedalus81 Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Yea, same result. If GW says no longer available then its simply gone unless they get returns. So, trust the message! Lots of stores in more rural areas will still have sold out items - I can usually find the most popular stuff kicking around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnelian Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Wow...this is awesome. I already have the hard copy of bonesplittaz but I wasn't about to buy beastclaw raiders as have no intention of playing them. But if it sells other and they bring out a £15 soft back (£12 with discount) then I will be all over that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
