The only one that hasn't made it to the warehouses is the RPG, all the rest can be ordered in. You should be able to do a pre-order or a hold-order on the RPG (a pre-order may come back canceled, but you can have them reorder it; a hold-order requires that they have some on the way to the store that are meant for the shelves, but it won't be cancelled)
There's also another novel due out next June by DeCandido, possibly planned as another movie adaptation (the contract is for three movies)
Whedon also wrote an X-men graphic novel, but I don't have the ISBN handy

www.serenityrpg.com is now up but just has the same basic page that was on Margaret Weis website. But it's nice to know that it's started. On a side note planning on seeing the movie tonight after my girls go to bed!!!!

Sorry, I should have posted a couple days ago
on Wed I checked the warehouse status for Ingram & B&N, the shipments had arived and over 500 copies shipped out that day, there are still over 200 copies in the warehouse with another 200 to 300 on order. They should hit the stores either today or early next week, Wed at the latest. If you're near a B&N call them to put in an order now & if they were already planned to get one they will hold it for you (I think the system does first-come-first-served). If you order it from www.BN.com you can do a return or exchange at a regular store, also our discount cards give you a 10% discount.

Just checked, bn.com is selling it with a 20% discount, not sure about the stores yet. so the price is $31.99US, if you have a membership it's $28.79US. the membership is $25 by itself

When I find out the ISBNs for the support material I'll post it (hopefully that day)

On the www.serenityrpg.com site they have a great fan made board that's doing great. I'm hoping the gang at MWP is going to put up more things soon! I'm looking forward to more info on the products that they're suppose to be working on.

Only problem with the game is that officially (because its rights stem from Universal) it can only draw from Serenity. There are little references to Firefly (like being left naked in the desert in the "survival" skill category), but not much else. I've not checked the Chinese in back with my transcription of the Chinese from the series, but from memory its fairly close.

So if you're looking for an RPG with a source of eveything Firefly, you're not going to get it. It works well as a system, lets you create nicely deep characters.

No, THIS is what going mad feels like.

Another little update,
New guide:
Serenity Out in the Black

http://search.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/isbnInquiry.asp?userid=MA0
FI6OCYX&isbn=1931567522&itm=2

at $24 and in HC I think it'll be a sourcebook, probably with at least one adventure. It's due out near the end of the month, but they're not in the warehouses yet, about 400 on order at last check.
