We have chosen not to make this a limited edition. Las Vegas has over 50 million tourists a year, besides its 2 million residents. There are hundreds of millions of gambling fans. Limiting the edition would be limiting the market, and for no reason but price inflation.
However, there will be multiple editions and the next edition might be pricier than the current. In this first edition, we have manufactured 3500 pieces. Make sure to be part of this editions, to prevent yourself from paying an elevated price for the second or third edition!
