Getting the US special edition and I am pumped! I have a nice Fire Emblem collection that I must keep up on! I, too, am disappointed by the calendar in place of pins from the EU edition. If anyone here in the US still hasn't ordered theirs, however, GameStop is currently offering a different pin set if you preorder the special edition with them! I am tempted to switch from Amazon to them, but the price is a bit higher. Also, I have mixed feelings about GameStop. They had the infamous Fates special edition preorder fiasco a few years back, in which they sold more special edition preorders than they had copies of so some folk had theirs canceled. Personally, though, I recall GameStop had a promotion that if you preordered both copies of the game with them, they would give you three free keychains of Azura, Xander and Ryoma. I preordered with them, but I did not receive any sort of keychain; and, when I asked, they said they had no clue. Not necessarily their fault, but, alas, I have never preordered from them again.
