Just take "several weeks" (to transport) x 3 (cartons at a time) and use the dimensions below (to be determined) to calculate how many tins per carton and you've got your number. :P I'm sure some smart forumite can put it all together, of course 500 would be a decent guess.



How big was that vehicle in the picture?

If IV grows any bigger I might move over there and apply as their truck driver.

I believe that it is a smart car, thus not very big at all.

Trust IV to be the only company (that i know of) to use smart cars for commercial transportation.

$70? That's kinda steep... I'll have to think about this.

I was going to ask when they started shipping... but I suppose they are as we speak?

I'm going to be moving back to my college campus sometime around the 20th. My house isn't that far away, but I'd like to have Multiwinia in my hands by the time I go to another city.

^^It seems like everywhere that isn't in Europe is getting charged $20 shipping. So $70 total isn't just for Singapore. :P

Well in keeping with announcing numbers, I have by sheer coincidence and awesome ordered #303. This is pleasantly in keeping with the fact that I have built my very own Roland TB-303. Awesome!

Since it's a pre-order, it would make sense if they only started shipping AFTER the game got out.

Are you being ironical? I can't tell.

For past games, they've shipped before the launch date, to make sure the pre-orders arrive around the date.
For this game, I don't know. That's probably why they announced Will's vacations.

You know, other members of Introversion aren't incapable of shipping 1 or 2 orders. ;)

What would make more sense is if they ship the game to you BEFORE release but only gave you the authentiction key for it AFTER release. ;)
