You’ll notice that we don’t know yet who the leader will actually be.
Torfaen councillor Jason O’Connell looks to be in the running.
He was relatively tight-lipped on BBC Wales’s Politics Wales programme on Sunday, but did say he thought he would be up to the job.
He has also done a lot of other media work recently, including an appearance on the flagship Today programme on Radio 4 and fronting a Reform party political broadcast.
Llyr Powell built up a profile as Reform candidate in the Caerphilly by-election last year, but defeat at the hands of Plaid Cymru was a chastening experience and might play in to the party’s potential tempering of ambitions for May.
Reform’s only current MS, Laura Anne Jones, has demurred when asked if she would want to be leader – but also has a recent suspension from the Senedd on her CV.
Mark Reckless, previously Conservative, UKIP, Brexit Party, independent, and Abolish the Assembly Party, is a now a Reform member.
He has been present at many of their big recent Welsh events including Caerphilly and the rally in Llandudno, and is helping to craft policies and the manifesto.
Former Conservative Welsh secretary David Jones made it clear when he joined that he did not want to run again for elected office.
Until we get the name of the leader, a set of policies and a list of confirmed candidates, Reform in Wales will remain something of a mystery.
There had been an indication before Christmas that after its difficult autumn, Reform would hit the ground running in Wales in the New Year.
They certainly did not in January.
But they could be about to make up for lost time.
After a period of relative silence any announcements from Farage – or a new Welsh leader – will make the election itself seem even closer.
