BWM orders order ~= production/shipping order?

[DowntownDM]

I noticed, for example, with the Tank Busters that the DCs were last (or later) to be produced and shipped, which leads me to believe that independent of who ordered whatever first - they're produced in batches (likely in accordance with common features) after all/some orders have been made...

given that the BWMs are coming up, and there's no DC option (which, like the LEs, seems more labor intensive and thus take longer), I'm wondering...

what sort of relationship do you think there will be with respect to which BWMs are produced and shipped first, those CGs that were more or less ordered first? Or, is there really no obvious relationship between order date and production/shipping date?

maybe some of you who have ordered several factory blades throughout the years can comment as to your experiences? just a passing curiosity...

thanks.

I'm not sure but try and figure this one out.


I ordered a satin/G-10 TB within hours of its release and then ordered a satin/bp TB a few days before they were taken off the site. I got the black paper TB about two weeks after I ordered it and then got the G-10 TB a week or so after that. They were identical except for the black paper and black G-10. Not that I care but I think they come out independent of who ordered first.


One thing I think we can count on is seeing the LEs arrive before any CGs. Just my .02
