Got an email this morning saying my order was shipped. They never contacted me to say the Ringmasters aren't available in the alternative colours. Fingers crossed that they'll be in the package!

I bet you won’t get them and instead will get some random thing you didn’t order.
Very likely! And considering I don't know any Carcassonne players in my area, I may end up with some random junk. On the other hand, I'm kind of intrigued concerning what they may throw in. Always a surprising buying from Cundco!

From the few orders I made on Cunco (3 I guess with this last one) I always think of them as 2 guys working in a small warehouse, trying to keep up with all the emails and orders.

And an intern, there's always an intern.

It's silly, but I chuckle every time.

Your intrigue seems well placed ... here's the response I just got from Cundco customer service this morning:

"Unfortunately the ringmasters only exist in the colors delivers with the expansion. It is planned to produce them in special colors as well but there is no production date set I could inform you about."

Here's hoping you get something entertainingly surprising.  :)

Buy 6 in yellow and paint them as required or sandpaper to get back to unpainted

Got an email with a voucher code to use on a future purchase. No Ringmasters in the new colours yet and no Abbot in gray. Lame.

Well, I've got my haul today. I will post some pics when I get some time but this mini-expansion looks really nice.

Also, the transparent and dull meeples are awesome!

What were you expecting?

Looking forward to a photo Vinçon!  I really like the dusty meeple sets!

I received it today and tried straight after: it's a good expansion, but as many minis it can derail your game if you follow it too much. I didn't use the selling part (my opponent did), but an interesting question was raised: if a player places a tree with a meeple on it next to another tree, is it posdible to harvest from both?
We played it harvesting from both.

No Abbot in gray? Did they run out because last year I was able to get an Abbot in gray.
