I guess I'm in Batch 5 (or later)!   :cry:

I kept my order smaller this time.  So I expect to be in a latter batch.   The time for shipping is one of the only things I am not frustrated about though.  New that would take time and expected it.    Comunication on the other hand...

Still nothing on my end, but a friend who backed at the Company level with no add-ons and got his address verification three weeks ago just got his stuff today.

I backed twice at company level and paid the shipping for both orders by May 17th so I should be in the first wave, not sure of what segment, and still nothing from anybody yet, Grrrrr

They're still working through the first batch.  My single Battalion order (mainly for a gift) had the verification email sent on the 13th and shipped today (fedex label was in the system Wednesday).  My double battalion + many extras had the verification email sent today.

I know everyone wants their stuff, but the delays are directly related to Catalyst providing so many choices and options in the KS.  If they hadn't added all the swag options, all the force pack choices, etc, this would be substantially easier to pick and pack, but this is what everyone asked for and the consequences that come with it.  They had to find and pack 33 items for my first order, probably close to 3x that for my second.  That's very time intensive just to ship a single order.

I'm sure at least some of that excitement will return once you have it and start opening it all up.

It's like being kid and finally getting the new console.  Sure you've played with your friend's, but this one is yours.

This is a great celebretory post, and I celebrate your shipment with you.

The coincidental timing of the quoted post in the broader flow of this thread is pure tragedy.

Hang in there NeonKnight!
