A claim I saw a week or so ago was that he had planned on holding some figures to the side to sell at conventions. So the final count was the same but he was just nice enough to put his personal stock up for pre order. That was two sell outs ago. He said due to popular demand he put the convention ones up. He said after miscounting there are 3 available. Going to his site now allows you to add 8 into your cart. Rush made it very clear on 3 separate occasions that there are only 250 Trumps.

These are figures that have only just made it into the molding stage, meaning that he hasn’t got a limited amount as he wouldn’t have given the final amount yet. You miscount on something that unlimited

The only way i would ever buy a ljn style figure from this guy is on the secondary market from a buyer who was disappointed in what they got…
And it would have to be someone i absolutely had to have, and this is coming from a hardcore ljn figure enthusiast

so did his concept art for the monster figures, and the CVV figure, oh and the Winnie The Pooh figures......
pity he couldn't even deliver on any of those, and yet here he is, setting up yet another grift which will no doubt result in people paying their money in advance for something that won't even cost $1.50 to make
