This is all so rather sudden. And to quote from a person I've heard, "Some stores have had this in stock for a good 3 weeks now". So anyone here in the know (i.e. working for Bandai's USA division or close enough to know someone working there) want to say what in the world is going on here?

Unexplained delays are not that unusual, unfortunately, and typically the reason for the delay is never explained. Perhaps they discovered a problem with the print run, or. . . well, there's any of a number of things that could have happened.

Anyway, this query belongs more in the Retail forum, which is where it's being moved.

Bandai has said some titles will be delayed so that they can be released using their new replicators via Technicolor, so that the disc glitches they've had for previous titles should be a thing of the past. So one would assume Gurren Lagann Part 3 is one of these, and thus should be a glitch-free release hopefully.

I preordered my copy back in January, and recieved it in an order last Friday. So far I've watch most of volume 5 without any issues.
