01
A cap is a number decided before anything is made
A numbered edition has a fixed ceiling set before the run opens — 250 pieces, 500, whatever that edition is. That number does not move once the run is live, and it is the same number printed on every base in the run.
The counter you see on an edition is the live one. It is not a marketing device that resets; it is how many of that cap have been claimed.
02
What the number on the base means
Each piece in a capped run carries its own number on the base plate, so a piece is not just “one of 250” in the abstract — it is a specific one of them.
Editions also get a premium hand finish and metal accents that the standing collection does not, which is most of why they cost more than a regular figure.
03
When it sells through, it retires
A sold-through edition is not restocked and not reissued. That is the whole point of capping it, and it is the thing that makes the number on the base mean anything at all.
Past runs stay visible on the drops page after they close, so you can see what has been made rather than only what is currently buyable.
04
Your own build is not capped, and that is fine
A figure you design yourself is made to order, so there is no run and no cap — there is exactly one of it because nobody else designed it.
The two are different kinds of scarce. An edition is scarce because it stops. A custom build is scarce because it started with you.

Common questions
Do sold-out editions come back?
No. A capped run is retired when it sells through, and it is not restocked or reissued.
Can I choose my edition number?
No — numbers are assigned in the order pieces are claimed.
Are editions made to order too?
Yes. Everything is hand-finished to order, so an edition still takes three to four weeks in production.
