Just wondering if any X-Men LE's have shipped yet? I have a Magneto
on order, but haven't seen any recent updates. I was told that the
first runs would start shipping in the US in early July. Is this
still accurate?

I was told LE Wolverine (first), Pro's (second), & LE Magneto in
August. May not be totally acurate, but that is what the Canadian
dealers have heard from our distributor in June.

Well that sucks...if it's going to be August. I might be lucky to get
it before WoZ arrives.

That's not right. All LEs first...Wolverines and Magnetos in
July....Pros in August.

A distributor on Pinside said he heard they were shipping some out on
Thursday and Friday (of this week).

I had also heard the order was Export LE's (already shipped I believe)
then North America Wolvie LE's, North America Mags LE's then Pros.

Shipments to Canada started last Saturday. Don't know if that's to dists or direct drop ships.

I'm waiting for the first "OMG, best game ever!" post and subsequent
all "10" ratings on Pinside. That, followed by multiple "1", "2", and
"3" ratings by people who never played it to drop its ranking. And
finally the person claiming it "best game ever" selling it a few
months later saying the game now blows.

My distributor sent an email to me on Monday stating that my Magneto
would ship "sometime next week". We will see.....

I am cautiously optimistic.

That's pretty much the case. But you missed the guy announced a year ago that it will be THE best pin ever and will put all other manufacturers out of business. He will remind you that indeed what he said is fact and not opinion. Then follow it up with some pseudo poetic drivel only then to feed his 30 cats.

Man I LOVE this place...
