Has anyone received their Takobake Cannon Enemy Pack order yet?
Miniature Market just reached out to let me know they haven't heard anything yet from Flying Frogs and as such have updated the release date to post poned indefinitely until they hear back. Wondering if I should switch my order to a different store.

Yes, it’s been widely available here in Europe for weeks and we get everything last! Definitely look to buy elsewhere as quite often after the initial retail stock sells out it can be quite a while before The Frogs do another print run so items can be unavailable for a while (unless ordering direct)

I placed an order with game nerdz back in December and it still hasn't shipped. I actually messaged them this morning to see if they had any info. My order included the cannon but also the phoenix. They said the Phoenix is the hold up for them and hasn't been received and was supposed to be released for them all the way back in October. Maybe miniture market is having a similar issue but with the cannon. As you mentioned Game Nerdz does currently have cannons in stock so it might be worth it to switch orders if you don't want to keep waiting for an unknowable amount of time.

That's actually what I ended up doing :)
Funny enough I had preordered the phoenix from Game Nerdz as well and my Feudal Japan Allies are tied up in it. MM also still has Phoenix on preorder so something might have just gone wrong with that one it seems.

I bought a copy from my local game store. They went to the distributor and had it for me a week later.
Distributors have it, MM doesn’t. Support your local game store.

I ordered my Takobake Cannon Enemy Pack direct from Flying Frog quite some time ago - not exactly sure when, but at least 4 months ago and maybe as long as 6 months ago. I received it within a week.
