    At least 15, because I already ordered one from them.

    Never thought of them double checking the big orders; maybe they got burned on the subs back in August with a rash of card cancellations?

    I'm actually enjoying all the anticipation, guys.

    PS, I'm eating crow on my "Mattel doesn't make prop replicas" comment, and I'm a little angry at the English language for being so full of redundancies. "Literalistically" I ask you.

    CASTLE GRAYSKULL UPDATE: Want to know if CG is moving forward? So do we! We’re tallying the orders now and hope to have the final results soon. There are a few very large orders that need to be validated before we can count them so if Customer Service reaches out to you, please return the call or send an email ASAP!
    P.S. Castle Grayskull pre-orders are closed until we finalize the tally.
    Stuff is happening!

    probably worried about the Hoverboard incident. Now that they have precedent with those cancellations. THey probably don't want to have someone order 20 and then have to cancel. Or someone coud have easily put 20 instead of 2 as an honest mistake. All in all i hope everyone gets back to matty so we can get this on the road.....

    I've been playing with my 200X CG with my kids a lot lately in anticipation of the classics Grayskull. The play features are fun, but the floors are soooo tiny!! The figures constatly fall off it gets so frustrating!!!

    I neeed a bigger Castle Grayskull so bad!!! I hope the MotUC one has a lot of floor space on the second floor!!! It's gotta!

    Do you want your Castle Grayskull numbered? Or will we ever know how many are made?

    Do you want to know how rare your Castle is? Or will we every know if this get made how many are truly out there?

    It sounds like Matty has to have a minimum order in the thousands in order to even get the assembly line fired up, so I doubt the numbering of the castle (normally done for limited print runs, yes?) will matter much. That being said, apparently some people really enjoy the idea of something having been a limited run, so perhaps numbering them might be okay. I guess I'm just saying that for my dollars I could care less whether it's number 1 or 1,000. I just want the set.
    Harken to the coming of SNAKEFACE!!

    A run of 2500 castles are still a very limited amount, and I would absolutely love to have mine numbered.

    Now let the bickering begin!
    -"i want Filmation teeth on the façade!"
    -"I'm dropping the line if the flag isn't made of fabric"...
    -"I'm sueing Toyguru for not including the grayskull space armor".
    -"there's no great rebellion characters on the box art! "
    -"this isn't a 100 per cent accurate to the REAL castle Grayskull"
    -"i can't believe they used GREEN PLASTiC!"
    -"omg I think the front teeth are REVERSED!"
    -"swiftwind riding battle cat doesn't fit through the door! mattel is killing the line!"
    Etc. etc.
