Originally scheduled for a mid-June release, the makers now insist it will be available from December 4, 2026, with no changes to the machine specs or pricing.

I preordered from the official RGL website the day they went live and this is the first I’m hearing about it. Pretty shitty that they haven’t even bothered to send an email and I have to learn about it through social media.

    That's rough, but they haven't updated the product pages either:

    We visited the U.S. distributor’s The A1200 product page on Amazon.com and saw that the machine is still up for pre-order at $189.99 at the time of writing. However, the release date hasn’t yet been updated; it still says “June 16, 2026” is when The A1200 will become available.
