Called to confirm and was told they received a shipment 3 days ago. I preordered from Canon when I preordered my R5C on January 19th. Already received my R5C but it seems the coupler has been backordered everywhere. I’ll probably keep the Canon order when it comes in as a backup.

I'm wondering what the benefit is of this expensive Canon coupler versus something like the Kimaru coupler, dummy battery and power kit for $40 (I have this and seems to work with the R5c)?

Edit: I may have found my answer. Canon coupler may allow for 8K 60p Raw recording without additional usb power. Perhaps you could check this?
