Just got another e-mail from Lego saying Castle in the Forest is once again delayed
and will now be shipped March 3. What is going on? First it was pushed back to
Feb 3, then Feb 15 and now March 3. I see some people already received theirs
back in December. Why is mine being delayed again and again? They've had
over 7 months to get this thing together. This is very disappointing. At this
point I'm just hopping they don't cancel the order and send an e-mail
saying they can't meet demand.

I just got the same email for my Kakapo and Pursuit of Flight. Those who got
their products were the European buyers; I don't think anyone in the Western
Hemisphere has gotten theirs yet; could be wrong.

It is getting very annoying and frustrating.

There’s a shortage of containers worldwide: they are all full (or empty?) and
waiting in ports and not going back where they are needed.

I just got the same email for all the sets I ordered. While there were deliveries,
I believe it was only European region that have received anything. I don't
think anything has been shipped "across the pond" as of yet which is most likely
part of the problem. I don't think there is risk of cancelling because they
"can't meet demand" as you've stated so much as they are learning what
it's taking to get everything in line for the world wide fulfillment of this
round. I would expect that we will see delays on round 2 as well. It does suck,
but I don't see any reason why we won't get them....eventually.
