I'm wondering if the delay would be caused by sizing issues with the box. Being a graphic designer myself, I know that things like that are most often created before a product is finished. And if the product dimensions are different that what they specced out then they will have to make adjustments to not only the size of the box but the artwork as well. I would assume if their designers are even halfway competent that resizing artwork for a box should take only a few hours at most. From the actual box production standpoint though it can take much longer, including creating new dies to cut the new box dimensions. Which in turn the box manufacturer has to send the artist new files for the die placement before the artist can actually resize anything. In my experience that can take awhile, logistically speaking.

Just a thought I had.

The delay sucks, and that LIKELY means Big Chap for Christmas...which, I GUESS is fine, since there's not much we can do about it. Anyway, I found this and thought those on these boards may be interested in pre-ordering it as well! Comes out in October, so it'd be like a midway point between this bust and Big Chap...and help continue the year of the Xenomorph! :yess:

Anywho, I pre-ordered it and thought you guys may want to do the same since...well, that's what we do :duff Here's the cover of the book! Amazon has more details, but apparently it'll have behind the scenes stuff on all four films, as well as interviews with people from all four too!

Thanks for the heads-up on this.

I ordered Giger's Alien Diaries. It's pricey, but I couldn't pass on it. I should have it early next week.

Thanks for those two links guys, I will check out those books. Looks very cool!
 
Anyone getting so sick with delays they are willing to part with their EX?! I'll gladly take off your hands :)
 
I don't think wait lists are what they used to be and it's always worth a try. I got on the Engineer list a couple of weeks back, there are only 200 of those and he's shipping very soon. I didn't think I had a chance at this late stage to be honest but he converted in 3 days. Worth a go then. Good luck DrPro.
 
I really want the EX for this but I recently got on WL. Now that there are less than 30 available should I just wait it out or preorder regular so I don't lose out on both?
