Hey Rustygear,
I was just wondering if this issue was sorted or they contacted you regarding it as i am also having the same issue that i have preordered it and it has the same issue you have.
Amazon is saying Thursday, January 14, 2016 now, so no idea whats up with that. Im sure it will be fine though. Can not wait to get my hands on it!
I just read on Engadget.com that GBX announced it was going to be released on Feb. 25…so less than a month away.
