I am seeing them in stock in some MPLS area shops. Specifically at Freewheel in Eden Prairie and Eriks in Eden Prairie and I assume there are some in other shops also.
Wolvhammers. Size 50 on my way out the door for my morning commute, +15F. It takes me about 20 minutes to get to work so not much of a test yet, but initial impression is that they are comfortable and very warm. With size 13 feet I still had some wiggle room even with a thin base-layer sock and a thicker wool over-sock. Tonight I'll take them out for a night ride for 1-1.5 hours and see how they work.

Excellent combo, Pin Stripes and Wolvhammers.

I wore them for a 2 hour ride last night at -5F and they were pretty warm. Towards the end of my ride, my toes started to get a little cold, but overall I was pretty impressed. Next time I will try two pairs of merino wool socks and see how it goes.
Picked a pair of these up tonight from my LBS and have to say that these boots are very well made. I will try them out tomorrow in some single digit weather down on the MN river bottoms.
I picked up a set of 43's (I normally wear a 41.5 or 42). I've been out on three fatbike rides and these are great boots. Warm, stiff, comfortable. Going to use these for both fatbiking and commuting to work. I preordered mine back in September/October. The local shops are selling through these boots quick!
We just had "SNOWMAGEDDON" last night and the roads and bikepaths were wet and slushy. I wore a knee high wool ski sock inside and Sugoi Firewall softshell XC pants over the boots. I suspect water permeated my lower pant leg and wicked down my wool sock into the boot as my toes started getting wet about 3 hours into my ride. The boots have been drying out over the heat register all night and are still damp.
Going to invest in a good set of gaiters next. I suspect that will help keep my feet dry.
