    Yeah they are more a boutique these days, which is fine but that is why we are seeing one and done minimal runs. They don't want to get stuck with a lot of inventory, which means these will probably be quite limited and why they are doing pre-orders before machining.

    The original body kits they made for their comeback were less than 100 bodies for each run: Black Magic (50), Orracle (50), Vertebrea (50), Karni (75), and then STO (capped at 100 so most likely less). Also around $400 for the body, for the STO; and the kits of the other four were $600 (BM, ORR, Verte) and $700 (Karni).

    Also according to comments I have seen from them; it seems they have a lot of ideas they want to try and get out. This is just the first of their "new" designs, who knows what they will bring out next. But everything seem to be runs of 100 or less, which is what it is. There is a finite amount of players that want cockers and are willing to put in the effort to customize/fully build one from the ground up, which can end up being like a $1000+ marker.

      They already got me with a new cocker body, but I do really like this one.
      I also kind of like the forced scarcity. Leaves room for more value in the secondary market down the line… but I also see the more unique bodies as art in addition to playable markers. Just my perspective, of course.

        I do like the revival of milling designs, in a time where weight reduction has been so oversold (along with elevated cost to produce) that creative milling has all but died. Their STO body is my fave, though.
