Just out of curiosity how many different Yuan Yuan minis have been produced and how were they available?
2x in the initial blister (male and female) 1x Special Edition Yaun Yaun for the initial release of Battle Foam Infinity line, this was limited time only. 1x Special Edition in boxes of Red Veil (I do not know if these were limited release, or every Red Veil) 1x Fat Yaun Yaun (2x Versions) that was a limited release. You can probably still find them around as they are not that old. These were the ones that all came to mind. In total there are 6x different miniatures.
The battle foam and the Red Veil are a little similar. Also, the Red Veil YY was pre-buy only, so it was limited edition aswell. So the only regular... the double blister XD Right now for the Soldiers of Fortune extra, 2xFat YY and the double blister are enough, unless you are QK and want to push it over to 7 xD Edit: nope, the Red Veil is totally different from the Battle Foam XD.
Thanks theGricks and xagroth. I have the Battlefoam one and the two Fat Yuan Yuan but I missed out on getting the Red Veil one darnit!! I couldn't even find the red veil one on e-bay although there was one of the Battlefoam ones "Brand New" apparently. I guess I'm out of luck getting the whole set.
This site is super useful for keeping track of models: https://human-sphere.com/index.php?title=Yuan_Yuan
It is possible that you could get a red veil box with the Yuan Yuan in it. I know it was supposed to be pre-order only. However, I ordered the box, from a place called Miniature Market, when it was on sale for Black Friday in 2016. The box had the LE Yuan Yuan. CB ships extras, it seems. Call around, or email, and see if you bcan find a store that still has a red veil box with the LE yuan yuan. Looks like Miniature market has 1 box remaining. You can also try GameNerdz.
Not really, it's just that several shops pre-order boxes and then sell them until they exhaust their supply, and in other situations clients cancel their preorder (which they made through that shop) for whatever reason (like they took too much time, or whatever). My usual shop still has some Red Veil, Aristeia and Fat Yuan Yuan preorder/deluxe editions for example.
Thanks Colbrook, I’ll keep an eye on that site. Was there a special mini for the pre-order of the Fat Yuan Yuan seperate from the ones available in the noodle box edition? Or was that the one you were talking about xagroth?
As far as I remember, the Fat Yuan Yuan had no preorder miniature, the "Tall Khan" yuan yuan was preorder from Red Veil, the "Khal Drogo" Yuan Yuan was preorder for Battle Foam, and then you have the 2 Yuan Yuan in blister (girl and boy), and the 2 Fat Yuan Yuan from the noodle box.
