not fully confirmed yet...but it seems that there was a CHANGE OF RELEASE DATE from 21st December 2011 to 9th March 2012. Amazon.jp sent an email....damn!

Dangit! I was about to translate those emails into english and was hoping it was gonna tell me they had shipped and would be here on release date.

They don't charge your card until they ship though, right?

Maybe i'll pick up something else right now.

I wonder how many new they will print untill March?!

I was thinking the same thing! my initial excitement about these is pretty much gone and I'm sure the buzz will wind down quickly until March! Financially this is probably a good thing though

They better lower the price now!!

 

[n3wk1d]

Steelbook released at the current price is consider very low, if you compare with the rest of the other steelbook price. It might go another 50% more.

I suspect they oversold and need to print more. Hence need to re-arrange the release date.
Just my guess, I could be wrong.

Got a response of K.Iwamoto within 2 hours. Wow, that's quick. They must have been expecting a ****load of e-mails and made a template

Sooooooooooooo disappointing.

 

[digitalbabe]

Ugh that sucks, but there had to have been a good reason for the delay. Better they work out the problem, instead of rushing them out, imo. Could have been anything...manufacturing, change in spec, marketing, etc etc, need more time to print more (it never said limited to xxxxx, as some Japanese Steels previoiusly). Hopefully Wreck can get some more info.

Though I prefer that there are not 1000's and 1000's printed on top of original planned run, I am still excited. The designs look nice and clean (at least from what we get to see), and they're G2's. Plus, some folks may have time to decide to order more, which they may have skipped, because of the timing before X-mas.

exactly. I was disappointed too but Im not complaining they got moved back in terms of $$$. Its just easier to blow money on steel's when its NOT Christmas time, lol.

I have heard they are removing the limit of one per customer. I am not sure when that is happening but like DB said, the description is not showing it is a limited exclusive edition.

The line in BOLD really bothers me somehow. It could indicate this wave is in trouble of being Amazon's exclusive release or simply released at all!!!
