Here's my justification for buying this statue. I'm not paying thousands for the others. Done.

I don't think they care "How exclusive" something is, they are gauging "How many can WE sell" That's what determines the #.

Your viewing the number by "Wow, there's so few!! This is SO collectible!"

They're looking at it as "Wish more people were interested in buying RIGHT NOW"

I say "Right now" b/c the number of buyers in the TBD sales windows is determining the edition size AKA their total revenue from the piece ever.

Hence why they let the TBD window linger a bit, hoping to see an up tick in sales or to better understand the overall trend in sales of the piece.

All said, IMO

Yup. I bet they were expecting more orders by this point.

ES will still be high and it will be around for years.

I remember the 'Order early to avoid dissapointment' comment on the 1:2 Wolf Bust... Still available!
Oh and the 'Limited time Free (domestic) Shipping'...
Still available!

If they do make a low edition size like Optimus Prime, P2 or Conan they just double it by up to 50% once people jump on it anyway

Or you could just not buy either.

Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

If you miss out on the EX PO, jump on the waiting list. I have a feeling there will be extras after recent developments.
