As you mentioned these were made to order and buyers could choose what number they wanted. So if the announced issued size was say for instance 250 that does not mean 250 were produced. And just because you may have or seen one numbered again for instance 45/250 does not mean 45 were produced.

According to a brief article in SCD from then, Southland was going to also produce a plastic version of the bronzes, but since I've never seen any I guess they went under before that happened.
