Post by lightning2000 » Fri Oct 12, 2007 8:47 am

Hi All,
Just a heads up to let you know the 2008 Forces of Valor lineup will be announced today, several days in advance of the iHobby Expo. We'll pass along the preliminary list of new items as soon as we get it.

Cordially,

Trouble is, wifey is coming home shortly and wants to go out to dinner. I just know the information will come in while we're out, then we'll have to post it later than anticipated.

I was hoping to have this up, but you know how the best laid plans go...

No joke. We're going out to eat since we still dont have anything to pass along yet. Hopefully, we'll have the info in an hour or so. If not, we'll post so you dont hang around waiting for no reason.
