Magic the Gathering: Final Fantasy – Emergency Solicit

Good morning PI-Fans, We don't normally enjoy waking up to a live grenade dropped into our laps, but such is life.  Our distributor informs us that they are expecting market demand will exceed inventory by a large margin so we've just been requested to gauge our market demand for the upcoming Final Fantasy set with quantities due 23rd Feb. Due to this we actually have no real idea of the prices of the items in question but we expect prices to be tied to the Premium markup similar to what we were charged for Modern Horizons 3 previously. Don't quote us on that currently as this is pure guesstimation  You can use our previous Modern Horizons 3 preorders as guesstimate prices, but we cannot guarantee they are accurate as the distribution channels cannot guarantee us regular prices or margins at the moment. If you'd like to help us out in [...]

Survive the Island, Seti, Heat Heavy Rain – 19/02/25

Hey PI-Fans, As we continue working our way through the pallets, it's time for the hernia inducing big boxes. After much swearing, loading these down the stairs through the building's back entrance, we've hauled the cooperative crowd pleaser SETI: Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence up to the store. For those seeking a lighter title (both literally and figuratively), the HEAT expansion HEAT - Heavy Rain has also come in alongside the headliner, adding new wrinkles to the race. Survive the Island on the other hand is lighter still, being a reimplementation of the much sought after 1982 board game classic Survive: The Escape from Atlantis. There's an equal share of weird stuff along for the ride, including the official BattleTech cookbook, 'Chandrasekhar Kurita's The Art of Food - Recipes of the Inner Sphere' if you're looking for an absolute oddball in-universe product. Here's to a great week of gaming and we hope [...]

Lego Monkey? Lego Monkey. – Monkey Palace, That Escalated Quickly – Grab & Game and Command of Nature: Sand & Wind – 10/02/25

Hey PI-Fans, While restocking the shelves, we've taken the opportunity to crack open a couple of newly arrived boxes and load the shelves up with several new titles. First up are a pair of fancy bite sized pieces of fun from both Unstable Games, publisher of Unstable Unicorns and Exploding Kittens Games. Unstable Games' Sand and Wind Expansion for the Command of Nature deck building adds in a pair of additional Elemental Sages, while Exploding Kittens pops out the Grab & Game edition of That Escalated Quickly allowing you to keep the player arranging cooperative game on you in pocket form. The largest box of the trio is Monkey Palace, a family game where players stack Lego bricks (Yes, actual Lego Bricks) to outscore their opponents by pleasing the watching Lego monkey figure through a combination of clever construction and decoration. This is on top of the usual spread of [...]

Hey PI-Fans, The port CNY backlogs are beginning to ease and several pallets of stuff are beginning to slip through the cracks.

Just a couple of Stonemaier titles to build things forward a bit.

Hey PI-Fans, If you enjoy the little satisfaction of building things that last, boy is 2025 not looking great in that regard - the collapse of the Diamond Comic Distribution company (along with its game distribution arms) has cast a bit of a pall over the industry and indicated that the year 2025 has every intention of coming out of the gate acting spicy.  For those of us who game though, at least there's board games for those of us who want to experience the joy of a little successful chill. To that end, we're always up for a bit of Wingspan. Birds are nice. They would never... To that end, we're always up for a bit of Wyrmspan. Dragons are nice. Also fictional, so they would never crap on us. Wingspan, its 2-player Standalone Expansion Wingspan Asia and Wyrmspan are amazingly pretty low-interaction euro-style game with players working to [...]

Meadow, Dobble and 5211 Reloads – 26/11/24

Hey PI-Fans, It can't be the big ones every week (and by most standards Blood on the Clocktower is plenty big) so this week we've taken a moment to take a look at the ever popular Dobble range. Known as Spot It in the US and Dobble just about anywhere else, in keeping with the idea that you can paste just about anything on a Dobble set, they've done quite a few. From the Classic Dobble, to Animals, DC, Harry Potter and Star Wars Characters, there's now a dearth of Dobble variants for your needs. The icing on the cake however is the Dobble Anarchy Pancakes, a collab between the Dobble crew and the wacky minds at The Exploding Kittens Company.  Anarchy Pancakes takes a spin on the original matching formula with the introduction of single image cards which are significantly harder to spot matches with and get rid of [...]
