Hmm... I wonder if they are going to be able to do it this year with the Robotech distribution most likely taking up most of their time for the next two+ months.(EDIT: The two+ months estimate is just my opinion)
Still, I'm interested to know the answer to this, as well.

Re: Holiday Grab Bags
Really excited about the Grab Bag this year. I'll be getting the Coalition polo shirt at the very least. (Which I'll have to order separate from the grab bag)

Yeah, Waiting is hard, but it might allow you to sneak some newer releases in.

Re: Holiday Grab Bags
I figure by around mid december anything thats going to make it out for the year will have made it out because once holiday season starts nothing is going to get done/published until after the holidays.

Re: Holiday Grab Bags
I was going to ask for a more recent printing of my RUE book but with the 25th anniversary coming up this year I may hold off and see if they have a limited edition version of it produced.

Normally I order between 4 and 6 Grab Bags every year and I never got a duplicate unless I specified that I wanted a duplicate. I hope it helps you...
By the way, I have already ordered my first batch of 4 Grab Bags and today I got the "Shipped" email

Oh man, that would be awesome. I can say with certainty that the book won't be done by then, but I MIGHT be able to run a game for the QRDF.

Re: Holiday Grab Bags
Placed my order today. First one anyway.
Like others I've placed multiple orders over the years. Last year I got 4. 2 before and 2 after Christmas. Out of all the years and the stacks of Grab bags (White boxes) I've gotten, I've only once got a double of a 'book' book. I usually stipulate I don't need the print packages, or coloring book or Swim suit editions, as I do have a few doubles of all of those.
I think the poster above was asking about listing off the books he has, as to not get doubles of books he already has in his collection. To that, I'd say "It depends on the size of your collection" If it's 100s of books long like some here, they're probably not going to read all the way to the end and double check. If you give them a good 8 to 10 books to pick and choose from, they're very likely to pick from those 8 to 10 and not go 'off the rez' for major books, though you might get rifters, art books, or print packages if you didn't ask for them.

Re: Holiday Grab Bags
My grabbag came in today. Considering we got 36.5 inches of snow in the past two days, I was a bit surprised that USPS came around today. Still it got here and for that I was happy.
The box arrived and it was a 'brown box' instead of the white ones I usually get. So I knew there was a hardback inside. Opening it up I found my suspicion to be true.
My wife and I Received the top three items we requested, and are very happy about it too!
1: Northern Gun 2, Hardcover, with a special personalized note from Kevin, and a large Kevin Dragon on the inside. This was our primary request and we feel very lucky to have gotten it.
2: Megaverse in Flames
3: Future Visions: The Artistry of Charles Walton II.
Those were our top three requests and they came. We're very happy with the grab bag. Thank you Kevin, and thank you Palladium.

Re: Holiday Grab Bags
My grab bag was pretty nice this year got all my main wants. I am running out of stuff I don't actually have now I think there are like one or two palladium RPG things left that I don't have and thats about it.
This year I got
Graveyard earth mmm I can haz zombies
rifts adventure guide been meaning to pick this one up for a while but never got around to it.
burb adventures the vanguard again had been meaning to pick it up for a while
land of the damned 2
rifter 2 my previous copy either got abducted or missplaced over the years.
I was going to ask for a newer edition rifts main book but curious to see what will come this year for the anniversary if there is a special edition likely will pick that up so I don't need 5 pages of errata for my RUE.

Hello...
Ditto... and I loved it! Still, I'm saving it for Christmas, since I can say that I opened up good ol' Palladium Presents during Christmas! And remember: Every time someone orders from Palladium during the season, a Holiday Grab Bag gets its wings... Please take care; thanks a bunch, and have a good day.

Re: Holiday Grab Bags
Hello...
Well at least it's good that you eventually ordered them. If I were to order two or more X-Mas Grab Bags though, I would put a different list on each one, possibly by ordering them one at a time, with a completely different list of items and requests on each one, pertaining to the specific recipients of the items of course. That way, you maximize the variety of items and prevent most or all of the duplication, even if both of the X-Mas Grab Bags are for yourself. Although that may seem to be a weird and awkward way to do it, it helps to ensure that each of the X-Mas Grab Bags is personalized to the recipient, and that each recipient gets unique items to bring to the game table every day. Not to mention, I really appreciate all that Palladium does with it's X-Mas Grab Bag routine, and I look forward to next year, since I already got my bag o' tricks! Please take care; thanks a bunch, and have a good day.

Re: Holiday Grab Bags
My second grab bag came in today.
Had a bit of a thing, as when we placed the order we didn't put enough for Kev to choose from. A second email and all was well.
This one included
1) NG 2, Soft Cover. (Requested as a reader/useage copy. The Hard Cover is on the shelf for the collection)
2) Source Book 2: The Mechinoids. (Replaced one damaged by cats previously, that had thus been a hole in my collection for a number of years)
3) Pantheons of the Megaverse ( Replaced a copy that, while treated well, had been used so many times over the years that was looking a bit ratty)
4) Psyscape. (Same as above. Replaced a well loved and well read copy)
All things from my list. Again, very happy with my grab bags as I tend to be.
May aim for one more, post Christmas, but for now, very happy with the two we've received.

Re: Holiday Grab Bags
OK...kind of an odd grab bag this year.
Got a comic Curse of the Vessel...I'm guessing PB was a big KickStarter investor since they have a full page add on the back. Pretty cool comic, but not what I was expecting.
Megaverse in Flames Gold Hardcover (super awesome)
A magnet
Some Robotech RPG Tactics cards
Very different from years past. Still cool, but I was hoping for Art Work. Haven't read the comic yet, so maybe it's epic.

Re: Holiday Grab Bags
I received my box a few weeks ago but forgot to post it.
Rifts: Conversion Book 1 - Revised
Rifts: Mutants in Orbit (Reguest, I lost my first edition a year or two ago)
Rifts: WB32 Lemuria (Softcover for reading as the hardcovers are on the collectibles shelf)
Dead Reign Sourcebooks 4 & 5 (requested)
Some Robotech Tactics cards
The best was the artwork. I got two of the double sided ones that were being sold at Gen Con that have a CS recruiting poster on one side and a Lazlo poster on the other. Great for my GMs screen at cons. The artwork that was my main request was from the tactics kick-starter 5 pack. I only wanted two and they sent them. Again, perfect for the GMs screen.
Santa Kev was very good to me this year, but truthfully the Grab Bag is hard for me because with the exception of any books I loose (a rarity) or accidentally destroy (not as rare as I would like) I really have everything from PB. With the exception of a few very rare items of course.

Pepsi Jedi wrote:My second grab bag came in today.
Had a bit of a thing, as when we placed the order we didn't put enough for Kev to choose from. A second email and all was well.
This one included
1) NG 2, Soft Cover. (Requested as a reader/useage copy. The Hard Cover is on the shelf for the collection)
2) Source Book 2: The Mechinoids. (Replaced one damaged by cats previously, that had thus been a hole in my collection for a number of years)
3) Pantheons of the Megaverse ( Replaced a copy that, while treated well, had been used so many times over the years that was looking a bit ratty)
4) Psyscape. (Same as above. Replaced a well loved and well read copy)
All things from my list. Again, very happy with my grab bags as I tend to be.
May aim for one more, post Christmas, but for now, very happy with the two we've received.
Sounds like what my 2nd GB for this year will be, now they've extended. I replaced my 1st print Atlantis in 2012/13's GB... this year I have a few that are showing their age & love. As I'm the PB-printing "library" for our gaming group, I need viable copies.
Now to see what's in Megaverse in Flames. My GM & I have been waiting on it to get the Minion War in full swing

Re: Holiday Grab Bags
Just opened mine since the parents bought it as my Christmas gift.
Got Chuck's awesome art book and a copy of Splicers.
Also received the graphic novel. Guess Kevin really took my comment on loving art.
The other two books are Rifts world books Juicer Uprising and Coalition War Campaign, though I already own that one and will see if my FLGS can triad it for that copy of TMNT RPG they got from another guy (dude also had a mint Robotech 2 Sentinels book which I grabbed right away, so this guy did take care of his books.).
And lastly I was a bit confused when it also came with a Regult Artillery Squad cards. Though reading others post on here seems to be the norm.
All and all I like what I got and hopefully I get enough cash with other family members to get the RTT box set.
Merry Christmas Everyone.

Re: Holiday Grab Bags
Before you trade Coalition War Campaign. Check your copy. There was a ghost update on CWC, where in some of the OCCs got attribute bonus and what not built in to make them more compliant with the newer supplements. These are not 'announced' but present if you peek.
I purposefully got a new copy, I think.. last Christmas to get those updates.

Thanks for the heads up. I just checked, it is the same print run for 2006. So I think I'm good on that end.

I did not know this, thanks. I will have to add this to my wish list maybe even get a second box.
