    I think even remember thinking one year "wow, this came a coople months early!"
    Only to realize it was the previous year's.
    They used to acknowledge it was late, so I wouldn't be wondering if it was just lost in the mail. But I havent heard anything.

    It's less than a year since we received the last one. And they call it a yearly single, so I wouldn't worry too much about it

    My guess is that it is not in your post box. :wink: Lots of threads about this very same question. Every. Year.

    It'll be in our hands when it is done. :) Until then...

    i dunno, they missed 1994 entirely, so we got a ways to go yet to match that delay.

    yeah but they gave you a double fan club record in 95 to make up for it.

    Thanks for doing the thread, reminded me I needed to change my address. Hopefully I got it done before anything was sent.

    There is always something good to come out of every thread for someone. Too bad some people have to bitch about it every. single. time. You would hope they would be too busy to have time for such frivolous activities.

    I still think they should be efficient and release two of them back to back. One of their main problems is that it started as an xmas single. If it's a week late it's already into the next year. Thus every year we get the previous years single. At least if they put two of 'em out back to back, they have wiggle room so they were always out before the end of the year :)

    Was it that late?
    I guess since I picked up "The Rhino" and completed the entire collection, I'm excited for this years.

    I wasn't being serious. It was my attempt at humor.
