Yippee, VC's on facefook!
Nope. Just got forwarded the news from a New Wave Toys fan ...
I watched Nolan sign the 'stroids, and then I was off of the site as fast as Santa delivers presents to all the good boyz and girlz.

I heard the shots on the small LCD look like crap. Can you confirm?

Looks like Dragon's Lair may be gone already. I got one as soon as they went on sale and it's already saying they're out of stock (albeit with "more coming soon" which may just be because they haven't had a chance to change their "out of stock" message yet.)

Yep, looks like they circled back and corrected the notice.

I had 2 in my cart then saw the shipping and was like heck with that and lowered it to 1. I checked out without issue.
I got lucky to get a DL as well. I kept refreshing starting a few minutes before 2 and had my PayPal account ready to go. I'm reading posts on their FB page that people had them in their cart but then lost out during the checkout process.
Asteroids sold out too. At around 3:51pm EST.
Ebay will have a glut of these and DL soon, I'm sure.

Glad I was able to grab a DL before they sold out. It's a late Xmas present for a good friend, he's going to go crazy since he used to work for a large distributor and unboxed many bitd.
I got tied up at two and forgot for a while. Got my Asteroids order in at 4:31 PM EST. Not sold out I guess. I just checked and Asteroids is still available.

Just purchased asteroids there still available
The Asteroids were shown as sold out but they they magically found more. I, and others, watched the count down to zero.
Of course, the DL stayed sold out.
I still have an Asteroids in my cart but I read there's some disappointment with the emulation. Perhaps there will be a firmware update in its future.

I ordered an Asteroids. I have the DL one and it's awesome for what it is.
THE NEW HOPE -> (from NWT)
"Dragon's Lair Sold Out Update:
First off, thank you to everybody for supporting Dragon's Lair x RepliCade! We are totally blown away how quickly the Dragon's Lair restock sold out! We had a limited amount available, so we set a 2x per customer limit to avoid hoarding. We sent the heads-up email yesterday in an effort to give everyone in our community the best chance to get one. We are sorry to everyone who could not get one this time, especially if it was in your shopping cart while checking out. ASTEROIDS is also selling at a rapid pace, so we suggest ordering now.
Our business is growing quickly so we'll be increasing build quantities for new machines coming in 2021 to ensure everybody is covered.
We are also considering reissuing Dragon's Lair & other sold-out machine variants later in the year. Would you like us to reissue variants of sold-out cabs? Please let us know your thoughts!"

I wouldn't mind seeing some reissued games. DL is the only I'll have for now and I do regret not getting Tempest or Street Fighter. I saw them available for months on Amazon and it just seems like after DL was released they all sold out.
