I agree with the above! Could someone ask him how long it will be before the reprinted/casted stuff will go online?

There was a post on the GBHL page on facebook (I can't remember who from at the moment), in reply to someone asking about the Shade pictured at the event that said it would be re-released on the web store next month.

OH my god these look absolutely amazing. I am so getting that Dain! Maybe the ballista too..

Woah! The shades are coming back?!?! Could someone post a link to that? Tried to find it on the GBHL page to no avail!

Rob Alderman was the person who mentioned it, he posted this image along with several others from the event;

He also posted the following in a reply to someone else;

They are expecting to release multiple sets every month. When they don't have new stuff, they will supplement it with older stuff. So the shades will be released next month.

Damian/Dr Grant posted some more info on the scenery:

"You get a house, a boat; a privvy and a bunch of walkways. Some of the bits are reversible though to allow for variety and the whole thing's completely modular. The whole board you see in the wide shot is made from the kit you'll be able to get."

Certainly a nice looking set, should certainly prove very popular if not priced too stupidly.

I'm definitely picking up a a Laketown house or two! They look great! Also, are the Osgiliath ruins also coming back? I'm just asking as I can see them below in the cabinet there!

Aye, Osgiliath Ruin will be back too. Good news all around.

Draugluin · **Posted:** Sun May 15, 2016 2:21 pm

Well that settles it. Getting an Osgiliath Ruin and a Laketown House kit day one. Then probably 2 more houses depending on price.

Stupendously exciting news!! Mounted Dain looks stunning–hurray for the fat pig! The shieldwall rule is a fine addition–hopefully other factions (Rohan) will receive it.

Anyone know if they will redo mirkwood army elves? With proper spears etc.?

Draugluin · **Posted:** Mon May 16, 2016 5:30 pm

Did any new info come out yesterday, or was it just a Saturday thing?

Now this is exciting! I just hope pricing wont be totally insane as with late hobbit products. I am very curious to see what new models we will get after battle of five armies is covered, good times!

Hirumith, the Grey Knight · **Posted:** Tue May 17, 2016 4:37 am

Very nice! Dain and the house look spectacular, very nice models. The other dwarves look good, too, of course.

SouthernDunedain · **Posted:** Tue May 17, 2016 5:07 pm

Hmmm save for a house or save for these?

houses are overrated - get the models!

Bandobras Took · **Posted:** Tue May 17, 2016 6:02 pm

Wow this is stunning news!!! So excited for everything! Those Laketown houses look like they could double quite effectively for Bree, with a little bit of adjustment perhaps...

slayeroftrolls · **Posted:** Tue May 17, 2016 8:09 pm

Yeah, I reckon that they could be adjusted to be detachable from the pontoon.

Buy a Laketown House. You get your house and you get some really nice models.

I would say buy the models, because they are made from FW, so you can show the new company that they are doing the right thing. Also one or two houses are not very usefull, but a miniature can always be integrated into your army.

He means an actual house vs minis, not the mini house vs other minis.
