Found the following over on TTGN:

5. Shadowrun: Shadowrun 2050, Historical Setting Sourcebook [$44.99; hardback, full color]
Chrome eyes. Computers called “decks.” Big hair, big cyberlimbs and bigger guns. It’s Shadowrun in the year it all started. Take a step back to Shadowrun’s roots withShadowrun 2050, a book that combines Fourth Edition rules—the smoothest, most accessible rule setShadowrun has ever had—with the setting that first made the Sixth World a legend.
Shadowrun 2050 has everything players and gamemasters need to dive into the grimy beauty that kicked off one of the greatest roleplaying settings of all time. With information on how to adapt Fourth Edition Matrix, gear, and magic rules for the 2050 setting, as well as in-universe information about the powers of the world, what shadowrunners will be up to, and who they’ll be running into, Shadowrun 2050 puts a new twist on the classic setting.
Captain Chaos. Maria Mercurial. The Laughing Man. Sally Tsung. JetBlack. Hatchetman. Nightfire. And the Shadowland poster who just called himself The Big “D.” These people and many others are waiting for you in the year that started it all, a setting brought back to life with new, full-color artwork showing the chrome, dirt, neon, and darkness that was in the heart of Shadowrun when it started and remains at its core today.

6. Shadowrun: The Clutch of Dragons, Deep Shadows Sourcebook [$29.99; soft cover, B&W]
Never, ever deal with a dragon. Shadowrunners have heard that dictum so often, they frequently say those words in their sleep. But what the aphorism forgets to tell you is this—what if you don’t have a choice?
The tension between dragons has been growing, and the big lizards are throwing every weapon they have at each other, including shadowrunners—especially shadowrunners. Extractions, industrial sabotage, theft, wetwork—there’s plenty of jobs in all those areas, and dragons are finding ways to get reluctant runners to work for them. Maybe they’ll hide their involvement in the run, or maybe they’ll bribe the runners with large piles of nuyen or blackmail them with their past activities. Or maybe they’ll just tell the runners they have a simple choice of working for them or being eaten.
Whatever tactics they choose, the dragons are going to be active and aggressive, and if runners want to survive, they better be on their toes. They need to know who the draconic players are, what they’re up to, and what might happen to them if they fall into a dragon’s grip. They need to be ready for anything, because when dragons go at each other, the world shakes, the earth beneath them burns—and far too often, shadowrunners die.
The Clutch of Dragons provides the information gamemasters and players need to involve draconic plots in their games, from profiles of individuals dragons, their plots, and their lairs to information about the latest efforts to build anti-dragon weapons. This is a critical reference for any players who want to test their skills against the machinations of dragons—or who want to see just how much trouble they can survive.

7. Shadowrun: Sprawl Sites: North America, Game Aid [$19.99; 16 page B&W booklet, 8 color maps]
The Sixth World is full of dark alleys, twisted corridors, and hidden locations for nefarious activities. Shadowrunners and 16th century explorers both know the same truth—the difference between death and survival when entering a hazardous area may be a good map.
Sprawl Sites: North America presents eight full-color maps that can be used in a variety of sprawls, making it simple for gamemasters to call up a number of different locations when they need it. From a luxury hotel to a collection of blocks in an urban barrens, from a shopping mall to a trideo studio, the collection includes maps that can be used in many different situations. The maps are double-sided, with a key on one side, making them useful as both a guide for players and a reference for gamemasters. The package also includes a booklet providing details on security and other personnel found in the location, along with plot hooks to help involve these spots in your game.

12. A Shadowrun Core Supplement, full color, hardback, that will be available in a standard edition, as well as a small number of Limited Edition.

PARAPHERNALIA: Catalyst will also have the usual additional items for sale of patches, faction/corp custom dice, t-shirts, stachel bags and so on! Also, this year you might find some new, cool game aides to help you play the game, such as the Weapons Deck!

Was wondering if anyone had insight as to the Shadowrun Core Supplement...maybe a follow up to the Black Book from last year?

I've managed to secure the services of a shopping ninja and am trying to put together some lists

If all goes well, there will be one additional product available.  But taht depends heavily on the printer gods, and it's not yet announced, so I'll refrain from tempting them.

What sacrifices have been given?

]What sacrifices have been given?

Planning to sacrifice you, actually.

Canray in exchange for an unnamed mystery book being released at GenCon... mmm.

Going to miss you buddy.   

On a related note, will Clutch of Dragons be available shortly from the online stores? 

[AJCarrington]

Thanks Bull.

Three things to note:

1)  All of the above are tentative Gen Con Releases, assuming all goes right with the printers.  Last minute problems have happened before, they'll happen again.  the only time we can (more or less) guarantee a book will be at the show is if it's already on store shelves. 

2)  Generally speaking once a book is "done", it gets posted as a PDF for sale, and becomes available as a pre-order.  It usually takes a couple months between the PDF going up and the book hitting stores and/or shipping.

3)  The Mystery Book I mentioned, if it makes the show, is a Missions related product.

Again, Bull, thanks!  The "Mystery Book" sounds very interesting...hoping that it hits soon.  Do you know if there will be a PDF release for it?  For the Clutch of Dragons, I guess we'll just have to wait for the pending pre-order/release announcement.  Do you have any insight as to some of the "swag" that might be on hand?

Pretty much everything covered in the last line of your original post.

[AJCarrington]

Thanks Peter.  Would be nice if CGL could get some picts up, but no worries regardless.
