I haven't seen anything in the works other than the ones NECA made that come with the Headshot Locust (that comes with the full-size, full-priced Lancer) but has anyone heard of EPIC releasing wearable COG tags in regular game stores or anything like that? I know about the Last Day thing and them putting COG tags in random stores but as far as mass-produced and released everywhere I haven't heard anything.

Dude, I haven't found anything, and I've been looking for a while. eBAY has some of the promotional tags for the release and some custom tags for sale, but they are going for 20 bucks apiece. I would love if Neca would just sale the tags from the headshot locust by themselves.

I had a set of the tags alone ordered for a while, until they packaged them with the Drone. (Then I switched my order to get the set) but I know at least at one point they did sellt hem separately, so they still should be; try looking around on their site, around apparel or accessories.

lol oh yea, I found a pair of those and...nah jk. That'd be kool but they're a bit too big to wear all the time. guess only time will tell. They oughta know they'd make a ****-ton of money...
oh dude, what if they heard our plea for plush brumaks and with the brumak came cog tags? I'd lay $20 (hopefully less, like around 15 or so) down on the table for that!
oo, a book the plush and the tags for $20...that'd be bad-ass

Yes there were mass-producted COG tags in Russia. Here's a pic:

Yeah man I have a buddy who works there who gave them to me. I don't think you can just get them, but it's worth a shot.

yea true, lol. oh well, if not it can't be long before they start selling them, right? I got a shirt that has the front of Marcus' armor printed on the front so massive amounts of tags can't be too far off, right?

ah yes, but unfortunately it's still set to pre-order. Guess it'll just come from NECA. 'sokay, NECA's design looks really good too.

actually those NECA ones that come with the Headshot locust isn't too bad. It's more realistic IMO.

yea. I got a good look at the ones from Gamestop and the NECA ones are better. Are those the ones being sold separately or did NECA change the look?
The Toywiz site has had those things posted since august. The scheduled release date changes constantly (I remember once it was scheduled for September, and I checked the site every day and it was pushed to October. Now it's November).
There are a few other sites that keep doing the same thing. I'm not sure these have been officially announced as individual retail items yet. If so, I haven't been able to find any info since August.
Does anyone else think the 1:1 NECA Lancer should have had a set of tags? Personally, a set of tags and a second clip should have been included. Why even make a removable clip if you only have one? Ah well.

you know what would be awesome? if every figure (especially the COGs) came with COG tags that matched the figure.
Marcus would have his cog tags, Baird his, Cole his own and Dom his own as well.
Cears of War Cog Tags by NECA will be available starting this week for $9.99 per set, according to Diamond distributor (who distributes comics, toys and other merchandise to comic and collectible shops).
So, yeah. Looks like NECA tags will be $9.99.
Wonder if they'll be the same ones with the Headshot drone?
