Are GX9 preorders worth it or am I jumping the gun?

I have a Gx7 at the moment. I am considering buying a GX9.

I have seen Panasonic are currently offering a free 25mm 1.7 lens with preorders. I currently have a 25mm 1.4 that I thought I would sell on as I'm a hobbyist and unlikely to notice much difference using the free 1.7 the GX9 comes with.

I've never bought such a new model before or paid them enough attention to notice prices and offers. So I am wondering if I should hold on a little while (weeks/months?) if the prices are likely to significantly drop/bundle choices increase. Thanks!

Also I am in the UK and near the NEC - should I pop by the upcoming camera show and try and snag a bargain there or are show offers not anything special?
