As today is the Early Release for the two new Forgotten Realms Alternate Cover Books, I called my four closest Local Game Shops, and none of them have received their shipment.
I know that there have been some printing and/or shipping issues for books lately, but had not heard anything about these specific books being delayed.
Breathe, dragons; sing of the First World, forged out of chaos and painted with beauty. Sing of Bahamut, the Platinum, molding the shape of the mountains and rivers; Sing too of Chromatic Tiamat, painting all over the infinite canvas. Partnered, they woke in the darkness; partnered, they labored in acts of creation.
They're doing early release for them? I know DDB does the 1 week/2 week early releases, but I was unaware of such a program for physical books via LGS. The main release is for November.

If you're not willing or able to to discuss in good faith, then don't be surprised if I don't respond, there are better things in life for me to do than humour you. This signature is that response.

Yea, D&D started a new program that they announced back on 03/18/24 for early release of the books at Local Game Shops to help bring business to these locations:
The first book released in this new program was Vecna Eve of Ruin.

The LGS books release at the same time as the digital master tier release - two weeks early. This book is scheduled to release November 11, 2025, so the game store and digital versions should release on October 28, 2025. It looks like you may be a month early on this.
Yeah, early release is (and always was) Oct. 28th, not Sept. 30th. It has not been delayed.
Yeaaaaaa, I'm an idiot... lol
I got excited and thought they were released at the end of September, not the end of October... Woops You can delete this whole thread... Facepalm!

Greetings D&D Beyond and Community,
As today is the Early Release for the two new Forgotten Realms Alternate Cover Books, I called my four closest Local Game Shops, and none of them have received their shipment.
I know that there have been some printing and/or shipping issues for books lately, but had not heard anything about these specific books being delayed.
Has anyone else heard of delays for these?
Just curious...
Cheers!
