This continues to be one of my favorite lines currently ongoing and the funny thing is, I had absolutely zero interest in this line when they first came to market. I am only collecting the females in the line, but if things keep going as they have been.....well, one will be able to put together a pretty amazing display of female CotD statues. Keep em coming SS!!

I can see why Sideshow would go with edition sizes like this for many of the CotD statues. Since Sideshow is clearly highly committed to this line and its an ongoing series that will see more and more statues added as time goes on, having edition sizes like this will ensure that many of these statues will remain in stock for at least a few years. So anyone who decides at a later date that they wanna jump onboard....well, those people will still be able to buy some of the older statues without having to go to the secondary market.
I know I would have been FAR less likely to start collecting in this line if all of the previous releases had already sold out. Personally, I think this is a very smart way to approach this line in regards to edition sizes. Again, it ensures that these pieces will be available for a good long while so people can collect them at a far more leisurely pace and I think that is ultimately a very smart move as most people just don't deem these as "must have" pieces like popular characters like Captain Marvel, Dark Phoenix, Poison Ivy, etc. Where Sideshow's goal with most pieces is to sell out as fast as possible, this is one line where keeping the statues in stock for much longer periods of time could wind up being very beneficial.
