December 25 - January 5 + a traditional bonus 13th day (January 6). Wishes, predictions, announcements and applicable product discussions.
If Big Finish provides a free audio download this year, I hope it will be a 2000 AD story. I'm being as economic to Big Finish's bottom line as possible with my wish.

I'm hoping for the first season of Lost Stories. The Highest Science would be nice. There are some Dark Shadows titles I'm after, but I'd rather get them on CD and not just on download.

Cheers for the Thread hope it gets used. BF have been very quiet about it this year, no hints or replies to several dozen Tweets or FB messages from people asking about it.
Regards

I do hope they do it this year. My birthday is Jan. 6 and I like to imagine that it's a BF celebration just for me.

Im sure BF will do their usual Christmas sale, and by offering download only it means they dont have much physical work to do.
Id quite like: Vienna - 1st box set J & L - 4th box set and beyond

Another sale on Companion Chronicles at the start of the year (when I'll have money) would be most welcome. The last sale was not so long ago, and allowed me to buy some of the titles, but there are still many more that I do not yet have.
Other than that, a sale on The Liberator Chronicles would be welcome. But, for that series it's the titles from 2014 onwards that I need, and those are not as likely to be discounted yet.
And I'd like to see a sale on whatever excites the Forum members the most. I enjoy seeing all the excited posts in the Recent Purchases thread.

Perhaps they're not doing it this year? They released a free 30-minute preview of The Prisoner for Christmas Eve today. Not only would I have expected this to be something they did for one of the 12 days, there wasn't the usual "And stop back tomorrow as we kick of the Twelve Days of Big Finish-mas!" included.
ETA: Oh, and for what I'd like to see in it, I would love to pick up those early Jago & Litefoot sets.

I would like some Jago & Lightfoot, 4DA, Unbound. I also have a feeling that they aren't doing it this year, though.

As a CD buyer I have taken advantage of the 12 days of Christmas sale at Big Finish to try ranges that I hadn't previously purchased. The ones that I liked I later purchased on CD anyway and bought more. Prime examples are StarGate and Sherlock Holmes.
So I hope that they continue and include individual disks from box sets, something they haven't done before. Box sets can put some people off in case they are buying something that they might not enjoy. To my mind this is the best form of advertising for both Big Finish and their customers. For example I would like to sample The Avengers, but I do not currently feel inclined to purchase a box set, but would spend £2.99 on a download story.

Box Sets are definitely harder to offer at 2.99 but they can always increase the price to 10.00 for box sets. That would still be a very nice deal.

To be honest, I see the BF xmas sale like any gift I receive: I like the 'not knowing'. I prefer to be surprised by each day's sale, and at most hope for something I wouldn't have considered before (Sherlock Holmes two years ago, Dorian Gray last year... the latter of which is my current addiction). So I try not to be presumptuous, and hope for the best!
If they don't do a sale this year, that's fine as well. It's been a busy year at Big Finish, and we've been given so many great 'gifts' this year from the announcements that I feel spoiled as is!
...actually, truth be told, I just recently started buying physical CDs (international shipping was a concern, but I was startled with how fast the CD came as my copy of 'The Blue Tooth' came in two days ago... and with a cool printed Vortex, to boot!), so I may take advantage of some releases I already have, if they pop up... *ahem* I mean, if there's a sale, of course!

Last year they released The Turing Test from the Blake's 7 Liberator Chronicles Vol. 1 Box Set by itself. I bought it, and I do plan on getting the Liberator Chronicles now because of it. (Y'know, once I'm caught up on all the Doctor Who stuff...) So they have tried it at least once. Hopefully they'll try it again this year!

LinkThe Stoyn trilogy is up first. 48 hours to decide whether I should get them or save my money for the rest of the sale. Being a Big Finish fan means making tough decisions.

I did get Luna Romana which I thought about but didn't get during the last Companion Chronicle sale.
This is an even better deal though so couldn't pass it up.

Got all the Companion Chronicle downloads in that sale a few months back, so this doesn't do anything for me. I might have sprung for the CD of The Beginning though.

Got all 3 along with all the other ccs bar the season 1 releases in the sale back in September. Have to say the £325 for the mega bundle seems tempting but I'm already about 6 years behind in releases. I suppose I can use that time when it kicks in to catch up but as I don't know what other sales there will be the next couple of weeks it is a skip at the moment.
