I'm from Norway, and while I didn't expect it, Norwegian retailers have actually received the first batch of kits already. They weren't displayed in the store I visited, as they were still in boxes, but the clerk was kind enough to go and find one.
At that point I was quite excited to see the kit in person, but I was unfortunately left disappointed. The kit looks okay in pictures, but I thought it looked even worse in person. The texture was just so 'flat', for lack of a better word. The navy blue was the same material as the sky blue, and it just looked cheap. The shield didn't help either. God, I miss the Umbro kits from 09/10 and 10/11. Left without buying it.
Oh, and the price in Norway? 90 pounds. And that doesn't even include printing or badges.
Hope the third kit will be much better. If it is, I might buy it the next time I'm going to Manchester.
