... I preordered a bunch of Blood Angels stuff (Codex, Death Company, Sanguinary etc) in the hopes of getting it april 3rd or shortly thereafter. I kept checking my order but it still said "Order being processed" even as of this morning, Monday april 5th.

So I called customer service and they informed me that Sanguinor wasn't coming out until April 17th now (not sure if this is for everyone or just USA or just preorders or what), when it was originally posted on the US site that he was coming on the 3rd. That seemed to be what was holding up my order. The customer service rep said that it should ship out today now since removing Sanguinor from the order.

Has anyone else had this issue with their preorder?

Are you sure about the original date? It seems odd, because my FLGS when he was taking preorders had Sanguinor listed as 4/17 along with most of the other metals.

Either way, that does sometimes happen. It's really irksome.

My store got a dozen sanguinors on the 3rd.. Maybe they simply ran out for some people

Im gonna bet they had plenty for the stores but limited their online sales. I preordered online literally the day they were announced for preorder and i specifically split up my order so I had one for stuff that released on the 3rd and another order for stuff that released on the 17th so this WOULDNT happen. Oh well, I bet stores had inventory priority and they didnt have enough for all online orders.

Oh well, hopefully it'll ship today and I'll be able to get them wednesday or thursday. Kind of annoying though, i was hoping to have the codex so I could start assembling stuff to play with this saturday....

Seems an US issue.

Did Split up the pre-order and the Sanguinor was part of the 3rd april release.

Date of arrival: 1st of april. ( mid Europe ).

My flgs was told they were limited edition and had to be allocated...

FWIW, we got ours (the store I work for) in for the April 3rd wave. Granted, we only ordered a couple for people who were specifically asking about the model as we don't regularly keep blisters of special characters on-hand.

my local GW said that all BA units other than Lemartes, Baal Predators, Sanguinary Guard, and Death Company are back-ordered in-definitely due to packaging problems, and im in canada.

apparently somebody had pre-ordered Sanguinor and waited until opening time on the 3rd, then they had to tell the poor guy his order wouldn't come.

A lone tear went down his face...
