Hey guys, Owen Spence here. While it won't be here in time for a "Christmas miracle", we are still on track to release the poetry ourselves. The good news is, as of less than an hour ago, we have a full set of audio demos for all of the pieces. Also, we have started to get recordings of the "Earth Enigmas" poem from Malcolm. It took a long time to figure out how we wanted to do this, and we went months making little to no progress. But, we're on track now at light speed.

I will say this. We will not be doing a series of videos after all. Instead, there will be one massive content drop with the poems, the doc, and more things we haven't even mentioned yet. It's going to be massive.

Oh, and trust me. No one is more disappointed that the poems aren't in the vinyl than we are. The poems are a really good read (esp. Earth's Enigmas IMO) and we were really hoping that more people would have them by now. It's just the sad reality of things outside our control. All I can do is say that we're trying.

Seriously, did you open it yet?

Are you the first to receive theirs?

What numbered edition did you get XXXX/XXXX?

Did the package/liner notes include the accompanying poetry?

Just got mine (along w/ my hobgoblin t-shirt).

#1400

Not opening it until Christmas...

Great numbers guys!

My copy is tarrying. I'm hoping for another Christmas Miracle and delivery in the next 2 days.

On the other hand, I didn't order right away. I almost didn't purchase it at all it based on principle alone, but against my better judgement caved, with the overwhelming Hope that the accompanying poetry would be included with the box set. Now we are here, and no poetry, maybe I won't even open my copy now.

Perhaps the wait won't be all bad and I'll get Box Number 007777

Back in stock! (reply)

My vinyl collection is not supported by a turntable, either. But Inkeep one at work with “listening records”

Thanks for the heads up!

I was hesitant to spend the money when it first came around months ago, but I did it. And I am super glad I did. I got mine a few days ago, and it is absolutely gorgeous. A really great, quality set (I guess, as far as packaging and contents). I no longer have a turntable, so I haven't spun them yet, so I have no idea what they sound like. :P

That is gorgeous. I was a little hesitant to spend the money at the time, but I’m glad I did. Hope mine arrives soon!

You don’t necessarily need to do it inmediately, either if you don’t want to spoil it for people with copies in the mail.

Just describe it to these guys for us.

I've been debating whether I should put together a gallery showcasing the contents but I almost feel like I don't want to spoil it. XD Then again, there were only so many copies made. It isn't like pictures won't end up online and it isn't like just anyone can buy it.

So the last thing holding me back is that I'm not much of a photographer...Do folks want me to give it a go anyway?

I blew the pins...This set is gorgeous. Absolutely worth it.

I did not see any poetry, however. :(

Number is on the back, though: #317 (reply)

Love the packaging! (reply)

Robot Chickens — Thu, 13 Dec 2018 23:59:13 +0000

These were the earliest versions we had access to and they have slowly released higher resolution versions, but this is more complete than anything thus far.

Not yet - tonight (reply)
