I completely agree, but you would think that they would've done something like they did with the DC sub where they were up front about it possibly not happening.

It should be completely unexpected. They sold subs that locked people into a full one year contract, then cancel it out of the clear blue two full months later.
..it's because they decided to use those funds (production funds) to get that DC club going. Seems like one hell of a coincidence that they didn't fill their DC sub quota (after two rounds of sub sales), kept people at bay for a week or two before deciding that they were going forward with it after they said they wouldn't, then a week or so later post a message on their site (they didn't even email it to us) saying they decided to skip the Ecto-1 subs that they sold to us over two months ago.
I understand business very well, and understand why this line might not be a good move for them, but they should've eaten whatever the financial turn-off was in this case since they sold people on it already.. with no mention of it possibly not ever happening.
