As a dealer, it is quite frustrating but it is what it is. I just hope my 2 case order that is "confirmed" stays that way.

Wow! 2 cases! Did you receive any allocation? I'm only getting a third of what I ordered.

Over on another forum where Miranda has posted before, there are a FEW people complaining like CRAZY about the set being "pushed back". Cryptozoic never gave a firm release date, they just said Fall, and Fall doesn't end until December 20th, but there are people so full of themselves saying they don't consider december fall, when it scientifically still is, and that december is Winter in their minds. I am sure that Crypto is sick of seeing this complaining.

So, by saying by end of 2014, lets say the set DOES come out in 2013 or early 2014 then they have more than exceeded their release date and no one can complain anymore. (or it was prob a Typo, but I like to think Crypto is just as fed up with some posters as I am)

lol - i was the one who first pointed out that most of december = fall and i was rebuked by the immature poster over on that other thread. it's a shame one person can be so childish and such a downer.

anyway, my ONLY concern with the delay is that too many products will be coming out at once (and in the holiday season) - i just hope Crypto spaces things out - i'd rather have multiple delays than have four releases in one month! - tim

I agree with Tim. I'm tired of the fighting over there.

I was hoping for a November release as well. I just think three major releases (just from crypto) is a bit much. BUT I'm still super excited about this release. A little shocked that they are doing retail packs though.

Maybe the person wasn't from America and assumed the Fall ran between the months of September, October, November. I myself just thought Fall was the American word for Autumn. In Australia it is now spring which finishes at the end of November and summer officially begins on December 1st, as I assumed winter would officially begin in the Northern Hemisphere.

Maybe Crypto should push these out until mid January giving people more time to save up cash to spend.

Yes, this was good and interesting news and info. I´m looking forward to this release, and I´m happy that they are releasing it when its ready and finished. This is going to be such a super set, all autos, wardrobes and I´ll be drooling over a sketch card (hope I can get one), I still don´t have one from season 1.

I do not mind too much about the delay; sure would have been nice to open some over xmas time, but like they say...good things come to those who wait.
Well at least this gives me some time to save what I can over xmas!! Hopefully bw able to purchase a costume or two, and an auto if they are not too astronomical!

With the announcement of production runs being greater than season 1 is anyone seeing a increase in their allocations!

I think allocations were decided with the increased print run in mind. So the allocations would not increase just because the increase has been announced.

But, I did get more boxes than I got for Season 1, so in that respect Yes, I got more.

Interesting since binder production doubled for Season 2. I wonder how much Cryptozoic is holding back for their own on-line sales?

Doubled? I thought it went up 50%.

Doubled is correct from 500 to about 1000. If it was increased by 50% that would only be 750 binders. It's actually an increase of 100%.

Thanks. I do know how to do simple math. I'm better than average in mathematics. I just don't live cards 24/7; and the quote I saw here was 750.

Sorry, I took it as kinda snarky. I later did a search here on NSU, and could not find any post about 1000, but did see the one I had seen about 750. Guess it doesn't matter, I'm getting 4 boxes and 5 albums; so I'm told anyways.
