I was thinking from a design perspective they AT LEAST could have coloured the arm-bands. But by November I'd have to think they were at in or finished production.
Maybe bc-chris can weigh in, but I don't think it should take 1 month or more to produce what could be pretty much the exact same jerseys with different colors.

"Hey, Reebok, so that order of All-Star jerseys, can we get different colored trim for each team?"

Seriously, different cuffs, collar and crest. Can be that much of a tall order. They can make team gloves for players within a few hours of them being traded, they can't change the colors of 3/4 of a jersey order with a month notice? (likely more as this decision would have been made a while before it was officially announced).
