Online retailer taking reservations for Kato Big Boy.

So is this Kato project actually happening?  I see Broadway Limited has a Big Boy scheduled to be released in late 2022.

Kato said yes in Facebook or Twitter or one of those platforms. They said nothing about a date, just 22/23.  Not sure about the genesis of the listing n the website.

Kato Big Boy was "officially" announced back in 2019.
Earlier that year, there was a Kato poll.

 We also had discussions about it in 2020.
