Yes for now it is sold out

There will be likely some customer cancellations and some bulk orders that are still to be cancelled and payment problem orders that get canceled
These would be made available just before or after release date
Any units that are made available won't last long

I didn't think it would sell out as fast when they increased it to 6,000 copies. I thought that would have been enough for everyone to get a copy!!

Especially as there is a steelbook also.

Wow, impressive.

Hey Ninja's. I still have a second copy of this preordered for a friend who no longer needs it after securing their own copy so instead of cancelling it i'm going to offer it to a fellow Ninja who sadly missed out. All I ask is the cost of the item Amazon charge me plus the cost of shipping to your destination. Hit me up if you'd like to take me up on this offer. Cheers.

Does anyone know if HMV give you a chance to update your payment details before they cancel your order, as my debit card expires at end of September ?

I knew that, but obviously I can't reorder as it is sold out. I guess I'm screwed then as they will cancel my order.

Yes they will cancel your order if credit card payment fails

This release though is likely to come back in stock with the likes of Amazon UK closer to release date or just after due to customer cancellations and orders cancelled due to failed payments

A few customers pre ordered this with various websites so you can expect some will cancel some of these orders closer to release date and also likely some large bulk orders not noticed yet until payment is about to be taken will be cancelled by some retailers

@paulboland - what exactly is the difference between the Limited Edition and the Standard edition?

Thanks!:thumbs: (I assume the Limited is numbered, too?)

Arrow don't use numbered on limited editions like you get with Nova/Kimchi etc

They are simply just limited editions with a set print run

Arrow only did one release that was numbered and that was the personalized limited edition Withnail and I

They did have some other limited editions with numbered certificate card inside

Nekromantik and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 and Battle Royale and Shock and Gore
There might have been a few others with numbered card inside

Speedyhen still seem to have stock, they have 2 listings on their web site for the new release - both at the same price

I have used Speedyhen before both from when they were on Playtrade / Rakuten and later on Ebay and they have always been reliable but I have no idea if their listing is correct in this case, if anyone wishes to use them I advise contacting them first

The one with the correct bar code is here https://www.speedyhen.com/Product/The-Thing/21621264

The Other version is here https://www.speedyhen.com/Product/The-Thing/21779159
