That makes a lot of sense; perhaps the BDP production slot increased from 150k to 180-200k (hence the vague statement on the website) and the allocation is demand-based….

June 14Jun 14 I'm probably in the minority, but none of these really grab me like past series have. Happy to sit this round out and save some cash lol
June 14Jun 14 I can’t see paying $400 for University of science with all of those generic minifigures and yet another $400 Castle.

June 14Jun 14 A train, a castle, and a pirates-ish set. I'm shocked. I'd like to like the University set, but I agree that it reads as just a bit generic all around. As others have said, happy to keep the cash. Between the T-Rex skeleton, Krusty Burger, Neuschwanstein Castle, Arkham Asylum, Death Star and the Enterprise-D, this is already a more expensive year for me than usual.
June 15Jun 15 Author Round 8 Not too special. I will gab a copy each of the castle, pirate and train to throw on the pile in the vault.
June 23Jun 23 Yes, the fact that there is still ONE day left and AiT sits JUST below the MAX threshold....Either Lego keeps adding more than theyre saying or they really estimated the additional sets correctly.

According to the guy who runs the program, when talking at BrickWorld Chicago, they are dynamically allocating the entire 150,000 set production allotment over all 5 sets (as a first-time trial). So the underperforming sets' allocations get reduced, and the capacity gets added to the in-demand ones.
June 26Jun 26 Here is a set that I will probably never build but I am a Sleepless Night completionist 🤣
June 26Jun 26 Waiting for my Wild West Train to arrive. I missed out on the Siege Encampment and Medieval Seaside Market (was stuck at work late)....aiming to try to find these for a reasonable price on FB Marketplace.

September 26Sep 26 Another series 9 entry, this time centered around the latest Griffin Knights. The soldiers do look good wearing the classic breastplate piece matching that angled cheek guard helmet in flat silver. It does cover all that nice torso printing though.
September 26Sep 26 Okay, it would seem everyone is tossing their Griffin castle into the ring. And some other builds I came across.
October 6Oct 6 Author Setting my reminder for ordering tomorrow. outlaw forest den maybe two and a gold mine for the pile I suppose. Happy hunting.
