That is weird. I only bought Megaloceros and The Sentinel. Guess I'm the one extra WBG.

If you bought the first suite and only bought individuals this time then it would just be in the 187, this was the same number of sets for the first suite too.

Kind of surprised at the low total number. No basis for it, but I expected more than 500 for the Megalocerous.

I have the impression many that shelled for series 1 didn't renew to protect their number, so the 187 lowest common denominator is made up of many singles.

I can't be one of only 25 to buy a Megalocerous single...

I'd assume that they must have sold 187 of the second suite, because I thought that you could only get the pawn through the sets.

187 of the first suite were sold, so there would have to be an edition of 187 for the second set and for future sets as well.
