Wait! Are you ready? Here they are!

We've had the first report from a fan (in the UK) who has received his deluxe Fireman set. He said it came with an extra art card (three instead of two).

We're trying to get an update from the people behind sending out the set about the status of the mailings, but for now we thought we'd let you know someone has gotten one.

 A quick description from John Lomas, who was the lucky recipient:

After recovering from the shear weight of the package open up the giant jiffy bag & reveal a small potato sack looking bag with a giant "F" on it. Perhaps this stands for the amount of time weve had to wait for it (f---ing ages).

Inside you find a plain steel box no writing on it not hinged a lid and base inside the lid is a sticker in the form of a engineers recording sheet written on here is in red felt a contents list and a drawing of a fat man with a box where paul's wrote 'this is not a pizza. enjoy'...
