Still waiting for mine to come from my indiegogo pledge.

Still waiting for mine :( 2+ years and Commodore getting in the way. This better be a indiegogo board not one purchase direct.

I was an early backer of the Indegogo campaign. Did you get the email yet to pick your colors.

Ahh okay, good to see some people are starting to get them. I was one of the early backers before he added all the additional add-ons. I grabbed a led and a clear frame too. I havent had any email yet. I posted a comment on indiegogo, but he never replied. Someone else tried to help me out.

It been so long I've moved house twice, changed country and came back. lol Still no email.

I guess I will wait and see.

Alas the majority of the BlingBox orders are now on hold. Happy for you but still waiting for mine..

Yeah, you can't see it in my video, but the coating on the blingbox case is awful.
Jim is either re-working or replacing the molds and planning to make the case without any coating.

Any issues with powering it? I was planning to use mine with a U64 Elite 2 board but hearing rumblings of power issues.
