Print Runs

[WebSlinger]

So I get this email from a shop....I won't say the name because it's a good shop and they are just trying to promote business and increase sales, I get it........but does anyone want to guess the print runs? I'm guessing they are huge due to everyone chasing variants.....crazy times.

 

Email.......

They do this all the time. The other week it was review a purchase you made and get a free 1:25 variant.

But all of them are start of arcs (PP) or series (Xmen and Superman), so I think it is just business to get them preordering the next ones that they still have available on the website.

Ya I can agree with that, I was just curious how many thousands are sitting in long boxes.......I had 40 of the Panzerfaust, but sold off a chunk to break even, had to sell them at a steep discount

Hah I had 200 copies, but I took preorders on the 1:20 variant for the suggest retail price ($39.99). So I made 9 cents (with bag and board) on each regular cover without selling them. I'll be giving most out without bag and boards in shipments hoping they add me to favorites or come back for the next variant.
