Haha they delayed it on the week of release? I mean it does wonders for the wallet but it's still a bit of a dodgy move.

Why on earth did I think this was being released at the beginning of December!

Well... when the company releasing it says it's going to be out December 1st, I can see why you might've been mislead to think it would come out December 1st.

Alright, well even though that makes things slightly better (a glossy finish is no longer completely out of the scope of reality now), it doesn't tell us how this one will be finished. I saw people saying Transformers would be glossy because it was Paramount .

Official word would be nice, especially when this is costing us money. Seems most people are ok with being kept in the dark though, so I doubt they'll tell us (might even cost them some would-be sales if it turns out being matte).

maybe thats why the release date was put back, because the design is not final yet...

Will we still be charged this week even though the release date has changed. If so wont there be more going on sale due to cards not being accepted later down the line? Might aswell put the cancelled ones up then too or there will be more cancelled + cards declined?

 

[dfoles]

Charged when it ships.

In my experience, they charge 4-5 days before release date. But as dfoles said, it's when they ship. Just be prepared for it to be a few days before the posted release date.

Yeah, I have my phone calendar set to alert me a week before release day so I can make sure to move funds around if needed.

Wreck it Ralph

FYI-Wreck it Ralph has been reduced to 4000 qty (from 5000 which was stated in the OP). I have updated the 1st post. New release date is January 20th. The remaining qty should go on sale this Saturday 3pm UK time. Only a few hundred remain.

For the remaining copies CLOCK If 15:00 UK in Switzerland CLOCK 16:00 is that correct? Thomas

 

[Gamesgaryjp]

So they sold out at 5000 copies, now reduced it to 4000 and have a few hundred left for sale?

Yes, Switzerland is one hour ahead of the UK as far as I know.

Over 1000 cancellations or they saw that it wasn't going to sell 5K so they just made it more limited

 

[ben6212]

I think its more likely they said it was OOS at around 3.5k ish and thats how we have a few more hundred copies

I bet the final product looks more like this...

Hope so, this is one occasion where I'm looking forward to the embossing and not wanting a plain gloss finish....

I'd be fine with a matte finish as long as they spot gloss Ralph and the logo.

Yeah that could work as well, I'd be happy if that were the consolation prize

 

[levi]

lol how can it go OOP and then zavvi reduce the print run by 1000. or maybe after they moved the release date, LOADS of people cancelled their orders.

 

[Marco86]

Oh Zavvi, I'd like to hear a official explanation for that.
