It was supposed to have come out on August 21st in Japan, but it doesn't look like it's arrived in the US yet...

Thanks Adam. I take that as a "NO", there is no US arrival updates that we know about?

There were a few sample in France and now the only one that remain is on Amazon with a Spanish seller. I think they were thinking it would not sell that well and made a too small batch.
