So if you have pre-ordered this you can (all going well) expect it to arrive at some point within the next week. Stock has been sent to retailers, so it'll be a question of them being able to fulfil their orders respectively as quickly as they can. We ask for everyone to please allow some flexibility on when you may receive your pre-order of the Blu-ray version.This includes if you've placed an order at our web shop for the Blu-ray version. '
