Well said I fully agree

Good to know. Thanks for not being cryptic, I actually thought I was cut out of the loop.

I don’t see the Mego releases for this week, is something going on? I also don’t see the thread that asked why so quiet on the museum front, where Lonnie asked, are you kidding…
If it is the case of something going down, don’t forget… some of us are only privy to what is found here.

The program is on pause while Mego and Topps are working together on improving the program based on customer feedback. All the announced figures are in production and will be delivered.

Given that the number first publish when the new week's figures go on sale, and we know that a lot of buyers "play the overlap window" so they can reduce shipping cost, it makes sense to me that the numbers would have gone up.

Now if they go up again 3 weeks from now or something, I don't have an explanation for that...

Currently the Gorgon figure has a "print run" number of 973 and Mummy at 1033. I figure those numbers will be going up soon.

Gorgon 1313, Mummy 1376.

might also include the extras Topps would make to cover returns/exchanges/loss type stuff.

Maybe the initial number is the number of people whom ordered them, and the adjusted number is the total with the multiples that were ordered by those customers.

The numbers did change like I assumed. Hunchback is now at 1121 and Grim Reaper is at 1381. About 300 higher for each.

They show up here: https://www.topps.com/archive.html?property=25368

There is no indication that they are not being produced, but they do have the lowest "print run" (Hunchback = 806, Grim Reaper = 1062)

i wonder if they will ever really reveal how many were made for each

[Confessional]

^^ Early on there was conjecture about the numbers. Was even questioned by Mego itself in one of the chatty group things. Has it ever been confirmed those are the number of orders (an order could contain multiple figures) or the number of total figures ordered?

Those numbers might change. They have in the past for other figures and got larger.
