See if you can order from the website or use an American dealer who is stocking these or ask a nice wolfie to get you one.

Thanks Triple-Frog, you were right! Got 'em on order.
And thank you, nice wolfie-man, for offering to get me one. If you were here right now, I'd give you a nice scratch between your wolfie ears!

David RWhat happened to the promo card ? It was mentioned that it was to be given out this past weekend at Memorabilia. No one seems to have seen it

I think Jason from Unstoppable Cards was very busy getting Blakes 7 out for the NEC and possibly had to delay this. He did at least four special promo cards for different dealers at the show which must have taken up a lot of time.

David RWas the Man who Fell to Earth 7 card preview set actually released ? I see one for sale "on that auction site", but it is unclear if it is an actual photo of the cards

The preview sets were definitely released. One dealer had a number of the 1:30 packs sketch cards.

monkeyafterdarkLet's hope the mailman delivers mine soon. I'm very much looking forward to discovering if I was lucky enough to get a sketch card...

boneAny news about this product? Looking forward to that David Bowie autograph card.

monkeyafterdarkI haven't seen any news about TMWFtE (hmm), but The Wicker Man is announced as shipping this november. Afer my inquiry for information, they answered that more details would be released this week. Although, I also recall them claiming to reveal more in the weeks before.
Nothing to do but wait, I guess.
Wicker Man and Man Who Fell, are definitely sets that I'm looking forward to.

Jason WrightThere are a few more signers for this set but as they are in the US it's taking a bit longer than planned. I think everyone will be pleased with the new signers but there will be announcements once they've signed the cards.

I didn't know Buck Henry was still alive. He'd be a great signer!

monkeyafterdarkFor the saddest of reasons, the one I'm least wanting to believe, his autograph card has immediately tripled in asking price...
69 isn't young, but listening to Blackstar it sounds like he still had so much more to tell. Up to the cosmos you go, Thin White Duke.

yorkbagThat is what always happens when someone famous passes. Give it a couple weeks and prices will usually return to where they were before the tragedy (especially if they are a heavy auto signer).
