I bought a copy of the Gamma World Box set (and 2 booster packs) at my LGS today.
One potentially cool thing I noticed thus far: There is what appears to be a unique code on the back of the rulebook.... could this be to unlock a PDF copy or unlock web exclusive content, perhaps in the new web based tools?

After looking I see that there is a premiere store right down the street from me. I'll be heading there bright and early to see if they have a copy of GW left!

I played the original way back when
I've been a Mutated Human since 1980. 
(although, after helping with my son's biology report, I might change to a mutated ground squirrel)
Best complements I have yet received: Spoiler:
Show
Making it up as I go along:
{BRJN}
If I was writing the Tome of Lore, I would let Auppenser sleep. But I also would have him dream.
In his dreaming he re-activates the innate powers of (some) mortal minds. Or his dreaming changes the nature of reality - currently very malleable thanks to Spellplague &c. Or whatever really cool flavor text and pseudo-science explanation people react positively to.
{Lord_Karsus}
You know, I like that better than the explanations for the Spellplague.
My plot device: http://community.wizards.com/go/thread/ … #489880509 (The reaction is the next post.)
Prepped ahead of time:
I started the thread "1001 Failed Interrogation Results"
{ADHadh}
These are all good and make sense! I just can't come up with something that's not covered here and is not completely ridiculous.
My characters: Spoiler:
Show
Active Characters:
LFR Half-elf StarLock6 Gondolin Nightstar
AoA Dwarf Guardian Druid6 Narvik from House Wavir
Character A-building:
Neverwinter Dwarven Invoker / Heir of Delzoun / worships Silvanus (!)
"Truenamer" - speaks Words of Creation
Concepts I'm kicking around:
"Buggy" Wizard - insect flavor on everything
Halfling Tempest Fighter - just because nobody else is doing it
Shifter Beast-o-phile Druid - for PoL campaign

In 1982, I was 9; my 16-year-old baby sitter and her 18-year-old sister asked if I wanted to come over to, "play something called a roleplaying game." Oh boy.
That was my introduction to Gamma World.
Sitting here with my own new, premier copy and a few booster packs!

Picked mine up today and will be running Gamma World at the Game Day later this month.
I was a little disappointed at the small size of the maps, and after all those beefy Essentials books a mere 160 pages feels slender. But it is all about the fun, and I figure at least I can pack lots of other stuff into that huge empty box.

I got my box today and I like what I see. The info is a little limited, but to be fair I already know how to play D&D 4E, so I'll be able to breeze through some of the material. I wish there were a few more monsters to battle but what the heck, I'll have more room to create what I want.
So far so good, I'm liking the new Gamma World, minus the CCG...
