No word on the 1-B. If I get a chance I will ask some of the "higher up" folks about this... I also will whine about the Pershing 1-A. Yeah, it SAYS limited, but if it sells like crazy you KNOW that a second "limited run" will probably be made.

Every kit is "limited production". Some are just more limited than others.

When I receive announcements from the factory they arrive by email. I then pass the information on to retailers who buy from us.

Good eye, Roy!

But at least they didn't put it on upside down.

It might be upside-down too. Without the horizontal band, it's hard to tell...

It says there are 4 in a master pack. Maybe that means stores won't be limited to 2 kits like was mentioned in an earlier post.
