Et Tu Mongoose?

umw

Mongoose
The topbar on the main page where all the product logos live is devoid of the old friendly Gangs Of Mega-City 1 logo. Has Mongoose dropped this title? That would suck... :(
 
No, it is still listed on the Miniatures Games page. They just change the logos around from time to time, depending on what is shiny and new.
 
Although GOMC1 SHOULD be shiny and new.
So much can be done with it, I regularily get people interested in it, but lose interest when they see how little is going on for it. :(
I know MGP tried with S&P, but that's not really enough. :?
 
Sooooo...can I still get models or are they no longer in production? And what about the game? Still alive? Does anyone who actually works for Mongoose ever reply on this forum?
 
We do!

All the models for GoMC1 are still available, and are present on the web site. We just have alimited amount of space in which to showcase products!
 
Well, I just called my local game store to order the game.

He contacted his distributors and was told that the game is out of print and suggested that I try ebay.

I guess the game is dead when you can not buy it from any brick and mortar stores.

If it is worth anything, I am in Milton, Ontario, Canada.

The cost of shipping/duties makes ordering the game from England cost prohibitive.
 
I work at the Sentry Box in Calgary, Alberta. I'm pretty sure we have a couple of coppies still on the shelf. Why not mail order it? The game is great...even if the support sucks ass.

Hey Dalton,

I think all the stuff actually comes from the U.S, and pretty quickly if they have it in stock. Took 2 weeks from order date (+/- a day or two) to get some B5 ships.

Very few people in the GTA stock a lot of Mongoose stuff, so I wouldn't say if you can't get it in an LGS it's out of print.

With so many niche products LGS's have to stock what they think they can move lots of. There's a store in Toronto where you can still get the original B5 Wars/AOG Centauri fleet box (man that sucker is tiny).

j.,
 
Hey Bostich,

I appreciate the advice, but, I know the owner of the store and it was going to be a special order - I was there with cash while he called the suppliers.

My local gamestore carries alot of mongoose products with two battle tables set up for just Battlefield Evolution (plus a full wall of product).

He is waiting for starship troopers to come out as a prepaint before he carries them. I was a big starship troopers fan, with over 100 painted warrior bugs and three plasma bugs (deadly combination) but now, I have yet to see anything from that game for about a year or more.

At this point, I would buy from England, if mongoose offered a bundle sale that would make up for the shipping and duties. I am not looking for too much of a deal, just enough that I am paying the same via mail that I would be paying locally.

The thing is, the bundle would have to have everything offered for the game plus the starter set twice over as anyone interested would have to have enough to supply the parts for all players and have enough for options.

If Matt could have a sale I know I would pick up the following.

Klegg Mercenary
Jimp, Pyrokinetic, Sov Spy Blister Pack
Robot Gang Blister Pack Two
Robot Gang Blister Pack One
Street Lawyer, Cleaner, Vid Vulture Blister Pack
Undercity Gang box set
Judge Dredd
Death on the Streets
Ape Gang box set
Citi-Def Soldier, Citi-Def Officer, Med-Tek
Mutant, Bodyguard, Ape
Superhero, Sky Surfer, Assassin
Robodoc, Robodog, Rogue Psyker Blister Pack
Fattie Blister Pack
Lawmaster and Cadet Blister Pack
Punks and Juves
SJS Judge and Riot Judges
Street Gang Box Set
Blitzer, Futsie, Batter Blister Pack
Top Dog
Street Judges Blister Pack
Med-Judge, Tek-Judge, Psi-Judge
and two sets of Gangs of Mega-City One

That would allow me to have the game and not worry about not being able to get some part.

If Matt does put the game on sale, I would love to have some experienced players post what parts are needed for a "complete set" if you knew you would never be able to get the parts again.

best regards

Dalton

Drop us a line :)

This range won't be going on sale, but I am sure we can work something out that would ease the shipping for you. . .
