Apathy of the New Releases (Jun '17)

My Want List
The Creativity Hub
Rory's Story Cubes:  Scooby Doo Dice Set ................................................................. PI
There's a bunch of new licensed sets of Rory's Story Cubes coming out for August, but Scooby Doo would be primo with the kids.  I'll list the rest of the sets under My Imaginary Store List.

Ninja Division Games
My Little Pony RPG:  The Curse of the Statuettes Adventure Story Box Set ............. $24.95

My Money-Is-No-Object Want List
Khepera Publishing
Atlantis - The Second Age RPG:  Death Among Trees ................................. $12.99

My Imaginary Store List (The Pegleg Gnome)
Action Phase Games
BEEEEEES! ...................................................................................... $24.99

The Army Painter
Warpaints:  Quickshade Washes Set ................................................................  $34.99

Asmodee
Sherlock Holmes: Consulting Detective: The Thames Murders .....................  $49.99

Bandai
Dragon Ball Super TCG
Boosters, Starters, Special Packs, Sleeves, Deck Boxes, and Playmats.
Zombie World TCG
As an imaginary store owner, I'm feeling generous.  Having been an actual store manager during the CCG craze, my nose is oversensitive to BS games.  Most TCG/CCGs don't cut it, and I've seen too stores in the last few years get burned on overindulging in a quick fad,  but this one I'd spring for some special packs and boxes of boosters. 

Bushiroad
Dragonborne TCG
Referring back to Zombie World TCG, I would NOT order this without an available support kit from the company.  Bushiroad also makes Weiss Schwarz, which is either a solid hit in stores, or doesn't move at all, so there's a chance it's good enough to support and promote.

Catalyst Game Labs
D&D Dragonfire Deck Building Game - Core Set .............................................. $59.99
D&D Dragonfire DBG Character Pack 1 - Heroes of the Sword Coast .............. $24.99
D&D Dragonfire DBG Magic Items 1 - Wondrous Treasures ............................. $14.99
Cooperative Deck Building Games are great for customers... on Amazon.  But a D&D licensed one is sort of a requirement to stock.

Chaosium
The Call of Cthulhu for Beginning Readers ......................................................... $19.95

Compass Games
The Fall of the Third Reich .................................................................................. $79.00

The Creativity Hub
Rory's Story Cubes Licensed Sets ........................................................................ PI

Evil Hat Productions
Fate RPG:  Adversary Toolkit HC ........................................................................ $15.00

Fantasy Flight Games
Runewars: Grassy Field Playmat ........................................................................... PI
As an imaginary store, I don't want to muddy my customer base with yet another fantasy minis game, so I'd pass on Runewars.  However, there are a lot of games requiring a 3'x3' battlefield, so for the right price *fingers crossed* this seems like a nice option.
Star Wars Imperial Assault:  Skirmish Map - Jabba's Palace ............................... PI
Star Wars X-Wing Scurrg H-6 Bomber ................................................................ $19.95
Star Wars X-Wing Auzituck Gunship .................................................................. $14.95

Shadow War: Armageddon ......................................................................... $130.00
Shadow War: Armageddon Rulebook SC ..................................................  $40.00
Sure, there's some horribly overpriced and over detailed terrain pieces, and the new dwarves for AoS look like Squats and Tinker Gnomes had a breeding fest, but the only thing that grinds my gears is the fact that they have the audacity to sell a craft knives and and small saws for over thirty dollars apiece.

Available in Grid/Grid and Grid/Hex
