I doubt you will get it early from Shopto or any other online retailer unless they are a tiny store! This is because most retailers will ship the game out on the monday for launch day delivery, no store wants to be fined for breaking street release.
I do remember from last year that Activision was telling big retailers (HMV GAME Shopto) not to ship the pre-orders for MW3 early.
Similar thing could occur again this year. Did anyone who per-ordered get the game early?
