The producers of the LE sent out a message to all customers just recently:
Status report of Last Hope DC Limited Edition
Dear Sirs and Madams,
you receive this email because you have preordered the Limited Edition of Last Hope DC at Play-Asia.com or the Van Basilco Online-Shop. Due several problems while the production of the Limited Edition we had to
postpone this edition again and again. Unfortunately we have to announce
another delay.
The problems had their origin at the CD factory we authorized with the production of the Limited Edition. As you can imagine the Vinyl CD hybrid is a very special format and is only offered at a chosen few
factories in Europe. Therefore the order of the production was executed by a large and prestigious factory in Germany which is a subsidiary of a
well-known media group.
Unfortunately we had to recognize very soon that we play a minor role in their tasks. After several misunderstandings at the beginning of this
deal we made a clear assignment which didn't meet our satisfaction when we received the final units. After another delay of the regular edition
- because this problem accrued twice - we were very unhappy and decided not to work together with this CD factory in the future. Sadly this also influenced our business connection and the Limited Edition got a lower priority.
Last week - when the final release date was set by redspotgames - was another disappointing moment when we received the Limited Edition in time but with three mayor errors. We could not sent the Limited Edition
out to our wholesale partners under this condition.
Now - after we almost had to take legal proceedings - we are confident to receive a 100% correct and satisfactorily Limited Edition within this
week. Please also notice that it will take about 2 - 3 more days to ship it to our wholesale partners.
We at redspotgames are deeply sorry for the delays and promise to hold on the given release dates for our future projects.
My best regards / Mit freundlichen Grüßen / L'expression de mes salutations

Cool.
I wish I could see the faces of the people who waited so long for the LE, and then discover that they hate the game.
Anyway, it's interesting because what this means is that there's a batch of "finished" LE sitting around somewhere. Are these going to be destroyed once the fixed release is printed and distributed (or before)?
If someone could snag a few of these, they could be worth some good cash...
