New Minion PreOrder this Thursday???
I?m confused about the Minion Tweeterheadposted about today on IG/FB and Twitter. I was under the impression they were making only 500 which is what I already have. These pictures look the same. Does anyone know what the difference is?

Per TH post on Facebook,
"Hey Guys, This is a just a reorder for the folks that missed out the first time. We didn't get close to selling out of the minion so we are just doing a factory reorder."

I also saw this but this sentence doesn't make any sense. If they didn't get close to selling out the Minion, why do they have to do reorder?

No earthly idea. Just posted what I was able to find. I think they need to explain it better.

We only ordered / produced less than 300 of the original run of 500.
We only did the IPO (Initial Purchase Order) and held off on producing the rest until we had enough interest.
So this is us producing the remainder of the 500 ES.
It's definitely not normal but it is what it is. It's not additional / over the 500 ES, just the remainder.

Okay, now I can follow. Maybe you should include such information next time in the initial social media post.

I'm glad that more people can get this guy in their collection. But hopefully Tweeterhead works on the styrofoam packaging since many Minions reached the buyers with a broken wing, including mine.
