Holler Waller - Good question. I'm gonna' give to you as honest as I know. So obviously looking at all the preorders already hitting the gallery (boy, If the Wyland Kona Ocean Front Gallery didn't believe me about how serious the Tiki Tribe was before, they believe me now!), it looks like this first limited edition run will sell out, maybe before the October event. I have not gotten a hard fast # from Holden because "some other party" has offered to come in and purchase all of them. Before it got crazy, I think I recall Holden saying he was making 1000 Body Glove 60th Anniversary Tiki-Mugs, and 1000 Body Glove "Shark-Tiki" tiki-mugs, and 1500 Body Glove Sea Creature tiki-mugs. But that was an early set of numbers and he may have done what he could to expand to the demand. As for a second run, the problem with that is it's not up to just Tiki Farm. It's up to Body Glove , and Tiki Farm, and maybe even me (or at least my agent). So would you make a second run of 60th anniversary mugs after the 60th anniversary was over? Would you want a Body Glove Sea Creature tiki-mug still on the shelf after their advertising tie in to their award winning sea creature film was long gone? I heard Body Glove feels doubtful. So, that doesn't look like it would happen, however, I think I could talk them into a whole NEW and different set of Body Glove tiki-mugs. That's all I know for now. Hope that helps. ALOHA! BP~
