Quote'This is Rumour Control, here are the Facts' for Friday July 17, 2015:First batch of approval of the second wave has come back to us today.Alien Queen, Facehuggers, Alien Warriors, Alien Royal Guard, Predalien, Alien Crusher, Power Loader, Colonial Marines Sergeant, Weyland-Yutani Commandos, Sentry Guns, Female Predator, Linn Kurosawa (AvP Arcade), Dutch Schaefer (AvP Arcade), Predator Hellhound, Predator Berserker.These are the pre-production versions. Production samples will be sent next week in full retail packaging to 20th Century Fox for approval of the models and packaging. The rest of the items have just been sent, at pre-production, for approval too.All of Wave 2 will ship to Kickstarter backers before we sell anything to retail. At retail we will be releasing 1 or 2 items per faction every 2 months or so, so backers will get them all far before retailers have access to them. We think that this is the right way to treat this situation given what has recently happened with the boxed set. We have checked and this is perfectly fine.Prodos Games LTD is proud to announce Ninja Division Publishing LLC as the North American publisher for Alien vs Predator: The Hunt Begins. Alien vs Predator will be joining Ninja Division Publishing's range of incredibly successful products including: Super Dungeon Explore, Ninja All-Stars, and Relic Knights.There is also great news for North and South American Kickstarter backers, in that Ninja Division will be handling your Kickstarter shipments. They have kindly agreed to handle the Wave 1 fulfillment of the Alien vs Predator Kickstarter for those territories in one great big push during the month of August. This means that everyone will get their products at roughly the same time, rather than the staggered shipments which would occur with the fulfillment handled by Prodos Games direct. Wave 2 fulfillment is still planned to be shipped by Prodos Games direct, at a later date.Ninja Division Publishing has also allowed a space for Prodos Games on their stand at GenCon 2015! Kickstarter backers can come to the booth to receive their copy of Alien vs Predator directly. We will also be answering questions and showing off some of the fantastic figures from the game. Please be advised that the game will not be available for general purchase. The available copies are only for Kickstarter backers. While we will bring as many copies as we can, the game will be available on a first-come-first-served basis. Any remaining copies at the end of GenCon will be sent back to the Ninja Division Publishing warehouse and shipped to other patiently waiting Kickstarter Backers that could not attend the event.We are still shipping from Poland to all territories except for North America and South America. These will be handled by Ninja Division as stated previously.We are still negotiating teaming with a UK distributor to get the UK shipments out at a faster rate.We have increased our output to a guaranteed minimum 120 copies a day, we are in the process of ramping up.This past week, almost our entire KS shipment capacity has been allocated to creating a bulk shipment to Ninja Division to fulfil Kickstarter shipments in North and South America at Gencon and following the event.You may pick up pledges for your friends at Gencon, as long as you have a printed copy of their pledge manager.We are not selling to retailers at the moment for 4-6 weeks, whilst we fulfil KS shipments. Obviously, we have the first batch that we are still working through simultaneously, but we know that taking more orders will be non-conducive to completing the KS in a fast and efficient way.We are keen to move forwards in a positive light, we are aware of the issues, complaints and problems with this project so far and we are working to resolve them positively. We would once again like to stress that people are entitled to be upset by some of the actions made and that we hope we can provide support to those people and meet their expectations in the future.Cheers,Prodos Games LTD

Ninja or something?
