Blade Runner....DELAYED
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but it appears there is a delay in the release of the new Blade Runner set, both 4 disk set and also the briefcase set (all 3 versions are affected). Amazon is now stating on their web site there is a production delay with ALL retailers so I am going to assume no stores will have them on sale tomorrow. Has anyone actually seem a set in person? This is definitely bad news for all collectors, SD-Blue Ray-HD DVD are all affected.

Umm. There's a local store that got their DVD and HD-DVD copies which I saw in person. BTW, is the case suppose to be metal? It looked more like plastic..
I didn't see the Blu-Rays, but I assume it was there someone. I'm in Canada BTW

I looked on Amazon's page at the 5-Disc HD-DVD version (no briefcase) and there's no message, though there is that message for the Blu Ray version... Maybe they haven't gotten around to updating that one?

If my BB gets it in, I might go ahead and pick it up. I'll just not open it in case my Amazon order ships.

My amazon order for the 5-disc HDdvd (non-briefcase) is still on track to ship soon (as in, I can't cancel the order). So I'm pretty sure it's just the briefcase that's delayed.

Dang, this would suck since I ordered through Amazon the SD briefcase set, the very first day it was up for preorder! I need to check to see my status.... It says not yet shipped yet. Ugh.

I decided to change my shipping from free to standard just in case. Will see tomorrow if it actually ships. Delivery estimate between Dec. 22-24.
