The official release date of Konami's "Premium Pack" is March 3rd,
and Konami will ship the boxes about 3-4 days before the release date.
So pre-buyers will receice notifications in a day or two.
"Out-of-production" status means "sold out", meaning HobbyLinkJapan
sold out their planned quantities already , which will occur even
before the release date.
In Japanese toy industry, it is common that manufacturers decline
additional purchases by wholesellers/shops - toys must be pre-orderd
in a pre-determined period.
