Joker was in the 10k+ range, Gandalf more than 5k, likely exceeded 6k but we dont know for sure.

So is production paused for the Chinese new year? I guess we can expect another batch around march
I wouldn't say that they (meaning InArt) cut the production back. Just not as many ppl ordered Gandalf all the times he was available to PO as they did Joker and even less ordered Pennywise from what I've heard.

Yeah Gandalf is definitely less then Joker and Pennywise almost seems like it only had 1-2 batches before selling out. Explains how it was able to release at the same time with Gandalf since the production quantity was probably so low. The Batman is probably gonna be a big one along with Aragorn.

I don’t have the words to describe how much I love this figure! It’s making the wait for Aragorn unbearable!
I wonder why Gandalf has been released in such a slow drip...?
I imagine applying the hair and beard is very time consuming. I also imagine you can only do so many in a day before quality starts suffering.
Imagine all the people...

Awaiting Sugo to get stock of this in Oz.
holy hell. The resellers on eBay are selling 5-10 each. They really managed to get a lot of the earlier batches. The ones under 1k are almost gone. They’re going above 1k now. U.S sellers are over $1200

Kinda glad I got him in the end so to avoid these prices. Pairing him with aragorn is going to be a great display but it'll be greater when the full fellowship is done.

Freaked Out
Finally my Gandalf has arrived after 14 days! (thanks Kit, fast and smooth shipping), but unfortunately I won't be able to unbox it until a couple of weeks 
Same. If you don’t have a preorder this late in the game I’d start saving a bit more for resale. Everyone still holding a preorder after a year will most likely fulfill it and if one does open you’ll be last in the watchlist email that goes out or last to fulfill.
on their version. Took these today.

I thought this guy was due Q2 2023, that's what my invoice said anyway...
It's so confusing to see that some people are getting him- but I guess, at least, I'm not the only one still waiting? Not a huge fan of how Inart is handling the roll-out. Are they finishing these one at a time one a month ??

he was due but didn’t start shipping till q3 2023. I’m not a fan of huge delays either but hottoys have been known to delay for 1 and sometimes 2 years, and Inart is nowhere near their size.
The theory on Reddit is, that they will have a large batch in march and April after the Chinese new year. Then we’ll know more
About the volume.
They mentioned summer of 2023 that Gandalf would be delayed which is why they included the fireworks accessories as sort of an apology for the delay if I remember correctly.

it was rather Q4 as the first batch from Kit was received at the start of October by people here.
Now that they will triple their teams working in production hopefully this means for further releases that there wont be a 6 months difference between the first customers to receive theirs and the last ones.
