Well we are getting very close to that wonderful time of year when a new years worth of Pewter will be upon us.
I hope everyone gets something that will make them smile.
How about a sneak peek of just one item.
Go on GHQ, you know you want to
You make it sound like they otta publish it at Christmas. Don't gripe too much or they might wait until then.

Isn't the 2019/20 list overdue? I've been keeping an occasional eye out for the yearly plethora of commenters asking "when's the new list coming out?" If I remember right, the comments used to start up in mid-May, and at least a preliminary list would have been published in the Forum by now. The excitement seems to be a bit low this year.
Well I'm excited! I can hardly wait to see all the new WW2 Italian Micronauts, Micro Armour and aircraft. I really need some Fiat 508 staff cars! Yes, I am using the power of positive thinking.
Traditionally, GHQ has announced their new releases on the day following Memorial Day (the USA holiday - the last Monday in May).
This has sometimes varied. In 2011, the new releases were announced on May 20. In 2012, GHQ started announcing new releases one-a-day starting on May 17. The entire list was posted on May 28. In 2013, GHQ started announcing new releases one-a-day starting on May 20. The entire list, including dates, was posted on May 31. In 2016, the list was posted on June 01. In 2017, the list of new releases came out about June 10 but the schedule was not published until June 16.
In 2018 the list of new releases was posted on June 15 but the schedule was not posted until July 06. There seems to be a trend for later listing over the last few years.
I wish GHQ would get back to the day after Memorial Day. For this year, we will have to wait and see, but mid-June sounds reasonable.

D'oh!
Me, too, although, given my particular wishes, I fear I am doomed to disappointment. I have been fortunate in the past, though. I have come up with a kitbash for ARS V that I like. Probably won't ever see any kind of MBT70 or the GM M1. Not likely to see the proper M577 track extension, either. MAYBE the M48A1? Although I already have to spend SO MUCH MONEY to get what I want... It will certainly take a while!

Does anyone think we'll finally see the Conqueror?
