Gaming News from Neoscream: 9th January 2016

Welcome everyone to the “Gaming News from Neoscream” post. This is my weekly gaming news post for miniature games, RPGs and some card games, as well as my miniatures painting and upcoming local events. Sorry for the late post, wanted to see if I could get more news.

“Gaming News”

First off we have the Bushiroad news. With Cardfight Vanguard, Friday was the release of the "Fighter’s Collection 2015 Winter" set in English. I have picked up two booster boxes if it.

Next is the Mechabrick news. Their Indiegogo campaign has finished. They made $7,142 from it with 86 backers. Between the last post and when it finishing, they manager to unlock a Neon Black painted shield that was added to all pledge levels. Sadly they never unlocked the Neon Black painted mech.

Now for the HeroClix news. This week we got previews of: World's Finest from DC World's Finest; and X-23 from Marvel Uncanny X-Men Fast Forces.

Next is the Mantic news. With Kings of War, wave two has finished being sent off.
Also Mantic have revealed that they have the rights for a The Walking Dead Miniatures Game which is titled ‘All Out War’. Due to the expected demand for this, it will be going to KickStarter, however it will be a all in one Pledge level and they have a rough idea of a set max  number of backers.

Now for the Ninja Division news. First off Ninja All-Stars. The container are close to or have arrived. The Asia fulfilment centre has shipped all their stuff to their KickStarter backers. The EU fulfilment centre has their container and should be shipping soon. The US fulfilment centre has one of their containers and the second in at customs. Both Canada's and Australia's containers are current at customs.
Next is Super Dungeon Explorer. The Pledge Manager for the Legends KickStarter is up now on their webstore.
Due to how big the company has gotten during 2015, they will be moving to a new office/warehouse this year that is three times the size of the old one.
