I just pre ordered mine last week and mine is on its way. I should have it tomorrow since I went for the two day shipping. Same here, I got free two-day shipping by doing that "Free Trial of Amazon Prime" Amazon throws at me every now and then. For only $41.99, the set was indeed a steal!! ;D

Woo! Mine was shipped too! I have to wait a bit longer, but Amazon is generally pretty fast, even with its free shipping deals.
Can't wait for Tom!

I can hardly contain myself to see that both complete versions of Night of the Blood Beast are there. I love the Turkey Day version. Quite possibly my favorite episode.

Just got in and opened it. Great DVDs. The Servo statue is a dark burgundy, not red, but its okay since its allegedly a freebie. It is sculpted to better match how Tom looks compared to the 20th anniversary Crow which looks like a caricature of Crow T. Robot. I may consider this Servo an evil doppelganger version since its dark (like Timmy).
If there is ever going to be any actual action figures or something similar of Crow and Servo made in the future and sold outside of DVD sets, I hope they'll be a bit more accurate.

I just got mine. Watching Corpse right now. I'm gonna watch them in order. Plus it's one that I can slip in and out while viewing since I'm cooking right now.

I think both figures are pretty well done. They actually painted the bases of Servo's "shoulders" red (maroon, whatever) so they look just right. Awesome detail. I think Crow looks fantastic, too, not at all like a caricature. Gypsy should be easy for them next Christmas. Shout is awesome. The way Mike and Crow are on opposite sides of the cover, and Mike's pointing up at Servo, and they reversed Crow so he's gawking at Servo. I also love the cover art on the slip cases. Especially Warrior of the Lost World.

This set has the best slip case/mini poster art so far.

I'm impressed with the art on Blood Beast -- the fact that the monster looks recognizably Blood Beast-y, despite the Blood Beast in the movie being kind of... blurry and uninteresting looking, if you know what I mean? I mean, I'd have a hard time trying to draw it, not that I'm an artist or anything, but.. you know.
Also, I'm hoping SO HARD that the Final Sacrifice art will feature Rowsdower + the hockey-haired bots.

Got mine today too. I was surprised to see promos for other SHOUT Factory releases on the Corpse DVD. Seems kinda wrong somehow. This is my first MST3K SHOUT effort, so maybe they've done it before. I did like to see the Son Of A Beach promos, though.
Is anyone going to contact David Worth?
Someone needs to find out why "perimeter" was mis-spelled...

Got mine last night! Love the 3D rendered menus. They have a cheap 90's CG quality to them which totally fits with the era MST3k existed in. The Tom statue is happily next to Crow atop the guest room tv. THe dark red looks fine to me. I think that they were limited to a plastic color rather than a full paint job (thus raising the price of the set) and so they went with the red available. I prefer it to the red used on the case art. The deep red matches the darker tones of the original puppet much more, especially when in a darker environment.

My only complaint is that my set is missing the Night of the Bloodbeast poster.
