Well knowing WotC UK the release schedule looks real but why would Nintendo's products (Ruby and Sapphire) be listed under WOTC?

I think your data might be old. Jamboree is going to be released in August from what the MT's were saying. The unnamed sets could be ones WOTC was planning to print, but cant now since they lost the licence.

FYI. I don't know about the accuracy of the schedule but Star Sisters has nothing to do with Pokemon. It is a game we have been working on that is designed for young girls.

So ignore the Star Sisters info, it is not Pokemon related.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled programming [Smile]

Ah so star sisters maybe as great as that girls one a few years back that bombed .. Boy Crazy

Nice to see that Hasbro really concentrated on retaining a great product line that all the family liked .. rather than milking sad cliches .. [Wink]

Oh and great to see that WotC UK manages to communicate with it's distributors the same useful, accurate and timely information that it gives it's players and profs.

European GenCon 2 weeks away and still the Head Judges don't know what the heck is happening...

Fan Appreciation Tourneys ... we'll wait for Nintendo then [Bored]

Well since MTM told us what Star Sister was. I bet the other two Unnamed sets were going to be Pokemon from the ADV sets and the GB games. But since they were not sure if they were going to get the licence or not, they didnt Name then yet, cause of the cost of copy rights and putting stuff together for those sets. That is just what I think happen.

I dont think WotC will be releasing a Starter Deck due to the fact that they have nothing to gain from by bringing in new players at this stage at the game. So the whole June set should be disregarded... that only leaves Legendary Collection 2 to be released before Jamboree, but WAY before August here in the States and Canada.
