What is 'statue collection' and use of wrappers? TIA
When Spanish Main first came out, WK made some small busts (ie statues) of some of the characters. They also had some LE ship cards made. These busts and ships were given out as tournament prizes. Now WK has a promotion whereby you send them the foil wrappers from your Pirates packs and you can get the busts and LE cards.
Everybody is saying "D'oh" because nobody keeps the foil packs longer than the time it takes to open them. If I (and everyone else) had known WK would have this promo we'd have kept the wrappers. I pretty much have 3 full sets right now, so I don't think I'm gonna buy more packs just to get the busts.
might be able to find a few wrappers around the house but what about receipts. Unless buying from big store, rarely ever get one. usually buy from local game store and open right there. wouldn' t they figure if you have a wrapper, that you bought it somewhere.
Y'know...the more I think about this 'Plunder' deal, the more ticked I'm getting. I have th original pre-release poster that talks about the 'monthly Pirate Plunder' events at venues, where we spend the GOLD we win in games, not the stupid wrappers!
I cannot believe WK is messing with its players. I say, "Wizkids, take our gold!"
Dave,
currently debating if WizKids products are going to remain part of my store inventory...
the 'monthly Pirate Plunder' events at venues, where we spend the GOLD we win in games, not the stupid wrappers!
And I seem to recall a huge uproar from players that they were going to buy stuff from Wizkids and then turn around and give it back (the gold), and so WK quietly dropped the whole idea.
I would much rather give up packs then gold. You can use the gold, but your just going to throw the wrappers away. And you can always ask for a reciepts evenif they don't immeditely give it to you.
