Thats correct.

But our MOQs to get productions are as follows

Base - 250
Alphas - 150
40's - 100
Spacebars - 100

We are off to a good start too! We should have a numbers update tomorrow I believe.

I'd really like this set, there's just way too many GB's going on that I'm already involved in.  I imagine I'll wait til the last minute, pick up a set of purple alphas and hope to get the base after production.
