    I'd like to get a roll of 20 since I'm trying to collect the 2010-onward series, but i keep getting distracted by pandas :)

    I want a 10 oz. This Kook is rad. Actual bullion is so much nicer looking than the preview images released.

    I'm looking at these 2012 birds and I wonder... where is the ANGRY BIRDS logo?

    Probably not too handsome to the guys that got their lunch stolen by a swooping kookaburra at uni (I was a witness).

    I definitely want some of the 2012's though, since with everyone getting dragons there is a chance the mintages might not be very high.

    Has anybody received their kooks yet? I ordered mine in August and still have not received them. The same seller has been making sales of them on ebay so i know they've at least received some stock.

    I'm being told that any deliveries on Kooks from the mint in 1oz and 10oz sizes are delayed until mid-October - no doubt this is affecting dealer supply.

    I just ordered some today from Bullion Bourse (roll of ten 1 ouncers). The listing said "2+ weeks delay" but I strongly suspect it will be considerably longer, probably closer to a month (mid-Oct as goldpelican mentioned). Oh well, I don't mind waiting. I locked in a decent price today (cheaper than any in the last 2 months) and if it continues to fall I'll buy more in mid-Oct when there's more supply (hopefully!)

    I have to admit having seen a photo of an actual coin, rather than the promotional artwork, the coin looks better in person than you'd think. That evil looking eye isn't quite as bad in real life :) Still prefer 2011 and 2010 designs though I think.

    I just place an order for 1 today with a dealer, hopefully won't take too long.

    There are some 1oz Kooks in circulation - but supplies are just tight. At least the Mint hasn't had to cease accepting orders for them like the 1/2oz, 2oz and 5oz Dragons.
