Hmmm.... I picked mine up on Amazon but as far as I know it's still shipping in December. Would mine still include the extra disc of music, or did I screw myself by trying to cheap out on shipping?
Lucky me I canceled my order in Amazon at time.
There are two editions:
Amazon is going to sell the regular edition (the one in the right) so your box will not probably have this extra and signed CD since Richard Kraft wrote:
THE DANNY ELFMAN & TIM BURTON 25TH ANNIVERSARY MUSIC BOX
COLLECTOR'S EDITION
BONUS DISC
Created EXCLUSIVELY for the now sold-out Numbered, Limited Collector's Edition of 1000, this BONUS DISC will feature special musical content. Only those who already purchased the COLLECTOR'S EDITION will receive this rare 17th Disc as an addition to the set's 16 CD collection.

I'm still very happy to have passed on this. Regardless of bonus disc's and autographs, $500 is just too much for me to pay for this, particularly when theres so much other great stuff to listen to.

So if I buy it now my box won't be Limited, numbered, signed, contain the extra CD and still I had to pay the same $500 as if I've ordered the Limited Edition a few days ago? Makes sense.... O.o
We're talking about $500! If you buy a $500 Collectors Box you could expect that it would contain all of the CDs including the new signed bonus disc (customers who order now are also affected by the delay until February). If not than make the regular edition cheaper. Sorry, I'm a big Elfman fan but I couldn't afford the box right away. I was hoping the 1000 run lasts a bit longer until I've got the money together. But if I order the Box next month after my next paycheck arrives I won't get the signes bonus disc and still have to pay the same price. For me thats a kind of rip-off.

I would expect the price of this thing to escalate. That said, the signed disc by the elf man himself, is almost worth more to me than any certificate of authenticity. Woo-hoo!

drivingmissdaisy just had a heart attack!!
I got the same email as well, man thanks so much Richard and Danny!! I can't wait to get that goodie!! Woo HOOOOOO
My two cents...
Guys, we know that projects can be delayed for a VARIETY of reasons. It happens, it's the business you know. Most of us know that. Artwork approval CD approval's sit on peoples desks for months and months. It is NOT high on Spielberg's priority list to give the final OK to some little Amazing Stories CD's. No slam against those, I own them all and LOVE them. We all know that things get delayed, it's a true bummer, but it happens a lot. Just looking at this HUGE box set, it's, I think, the first of it's kind, being so big, so I can't even BEGIN to wonder about the problems of creating something so big.
I'm not surprised it was delayed and I also think of what they are doing is a VERY nice gesture to us. They could have said, sorry it will ship in February, Merry Christmas, but I think they really wanted to give us something for our wait and then to have Danny get carpal tunnel as he signs all 1000 is of course super cool!
Course, most on here know me as a pretty positive guy and I for one can say thanks guys for sending out this disc and thanks for Danny for signing it. You didn't have to, but since you did, your ace's in my book. Thanks for the hard work you've all put into this!

You're right, it's a nice gesture to hand out this bonus disc as some kind of compensation for the 2 month delay. But why only for the first 1000 customers who bought it directly from WB? Customers who oder it now pay the same price, must also wait until Febraury to receive their box and in the end they get less for their money. You spend that much money and still you miss a that special CD. That's why I've decided not to order the box. Either all or nothing. It's like if I miss the first minutes of a movie...I rather miss the whole movie than to watch an uncomplete film.
