Dear Customers,
I just wanted to write a quick post regarding Fantasy Flight Games and their most recent releases utilizing the Star Wars license: Destiny and the U-Wing/TIE Striker for X-Wing. I have been a strong supporter of FFG since opening my game shop, but I also share your frustration regarding FFG’s apparent inability to produce to meet demand for these popular products. This has really come to a head regarding the Destiny dice game and the most recent wave for X-Wing.
Speaking with my distributors early last week, I learned that I was not only unable to increase my current orders, but that it was unclear when restocks would be possible. Considering these releases’ corresponding proximity to the release of Rogue One, I cannot fathom why precautions were not taken to ensure adequate stock. This impacts the small retailers the most (who likely won’t carry hundreds of copies). So, for example, I am able to meet the demand of all my X-Wing preorders, but I have one U-Wing left to put on the shelf. It’s a bummer, but I want you to know that I am doing my best to ensure our new and loyal customers get product in a timely manner. So, as I am exercising patience with FFG, please exercise patience with Drawbridge Games.
Thank you for your support,
-Rico
