Don't forget that this is a brand new design. There was no stockpile of them when I posted those first pics--just the one prototype. My guess is that they're having to push really hard to meet the huge demand for this bubbler (including customization requests from a lot of people, I think).
It's hard to wait, I know. I myself lollygagged with making a decision about customization, and so I'm also currently waiting for mine to be completed/shipped.
Given the pics and comments we've seen so far, I'm sure it'll be worth the wait.
