Order status is “Processing”. Hopefully that means “processing it right out the door so you can finally own it”. Your story of a similar situation gives me hope, maybe it will ship one of these days.

I believe they've had some stock/supply chain issues lately, I had my Gothic Fantastico box set on pre-order and it took close to 3 weeks to ship after release, while the other items in my order shipped separately. It did arrive eventually though

This one doesn't come with a J-card for some reason, so the BBFC rating is on the cover instead of the cardboard. I don't think I've ever had a limited edition slipbox title like this come without one. I know the logo bothers some people, so I figured I'd let them know

There are some older Arrow releases without the jcard, and the ratings logo on them. I probably have quite a few. Doesn't really bother me. Don't know why they opted to not have a jcard with Videodrome though.

Fawking Zavvi notified me that the original artwork LE was available again, so I rushed to order it, but after two update e-mails, they're now telling me they're unable to get it. I went ahead I ordered the other LE.

Most of the older LE's I have just has the logos and the information printed on, but the most recent ones along with Videodrome would probably be The Thing and Django 4K, the latter being a US release though so no ratings. But it is bizarre how they choose to still just print them on every once in a while.

Arrow cancelled my order for the original artwork LE I knew I should've placed an order when it was still available months ago on Arrow's site.

Happy 40th Anniversary!

Any place to get either LE without going after market? or anyone have an extra? haha

I'm curious why there is no way to buy this in any form - even standard. Were the rights weirdly limited?

You’re in the thread for the Criterion release. It’s readily available.

The limited edition is pretty much gone everywhere but Ebay. The standard edition is still around. I ordered that last week from DiabolikDVD.
