Have they mentioned a more specific release date aside from "May 2013" for these yet? Maybe on the forums? I'm not a member there so I can't view any of the threads. I'd be really bummed if they just throw it up one day and I'm out-of-town. They really look great thus far.
That eye lighting gimmick is phenomenal. But realistically you won't have it turned on 24x7 in your display case. So basically you'll mostly see black holes where the eyes should be. I think they should have engineered a way to use ambient lighting to illuminate the eye. That way when your display lights are on, the eye is on.
