Dear Jake,

I received shipping notification yesterday, as did others.

Please give me the company that unloads freigth containers, gets them through customs, unpacks containers and ships them to customers, all within 24 hours.

Many compnaies in the US always struggle with the speed of customs, unloading, etc. How does Lego get this done so fast?

It’s not that anything was incorrect, but that multiple tasks that typically (or at least often) take longer to come together worked out lighting fast this time around. When I first posted, the latest data was that we would need until June to start shipping. It turned out that we were able to start shipping sooner... I hope you don’t mind! :)
