How accurate is it usually? I see on almost all the 1/6 items, there's a LOW STOCK or ALMOST SOLD OUT red warning, but there are some Sideshow and Prime 1 and other company pieces that don't have the red lettering warnings. Are they too supposed to be low stock?
 
Current Sixth Scale figures in the Last Chance section at Sideshow:

I don’t understand how pre-order items can be low in stock. Unless they didn’t order much for stock but still it’s kinda weird. I would think they’d order however many pre-orders they take plus x amount more.
 
Well at a certain point SSC has to actually place their order with the supplier. In those cases, they either already placed an order for a capped number of figures, internally decided to cap the number of orders to place, or the supplier may limit the number of pre-orders.
