But I guess people also wanna drive expensive rare cars and wear rare expensive watches, but it’s not really supposed to be for everyone, so I guess I get it. ---

Ima buy one and throw it at the ground, just to spite the scalpers JK, if I’d be lucky enough I would take great care of it lol Reading over everything so far, the frustration is palpable, but I kinda get the “this is special” release of this, and the “we don’t want to look back anymore” of not re-running the original stuff. The concept of this is super cool, THE original as the man intended, but idk it is a bummer it’s not the people’s Peak. Maybe that will remain the Pleak. I enjoy mine now that I’ve received another. Maybe there is something else coming for genpop? ---

> [@Tempura](#): > > I really hope this doesn’t mean only 100 ever, US Nationals also feels like a snub to Canada 🥲 Based off the reaction we’re getting I think it’s a pretty safe bet there will be future runs, but this is something I want to stay special so it’s not gonna be made in bulk. As for US Nationals release…it wasn’t a snub, it was just the timing. These _barely_ got done in time for this release, the team edition I had made on the side to gift the team are shipping directly to the Nats hotel for me to assemble there lol. > [@Jayce](#): > > I still love OD and CLYW but my question to both david & Steve is simple. Are you allergic to making money? Summit 1 can’t be made because you dont want thousand in sells or because collector a and b will cry? It’s not an allergy, more of a sensitivity. :wink: Summit 1 isn’t dead forever, we just had another story we wanted to tell first. Neither of us have any issue with another run of the original Summit, and we’ve already talked about a few ideas to make a new run something cool and special. Just because we haven’t announced a thing doesn’t mean it’ll never happen. I brought back the Bonfire and Glacier Express, I think it’s clear I don’t have any specific problem with the idea of re-running older models. But OD has their own stuff to make, plus trying to keep up with demand for the Summit 2 (more coming, BTW) so bandwidth is just kinda limited. Shawn’s gotta sleep sometime lol > [@mkmavvl](#): > > The sheer number of people wanting Summit 1 and Peak 1 would keep Onedrop working 24/7 for several months, or pheraps year or two As much as we all love making things, we’re just a few people and we can only do so much. I’ll have a couple of red protos of the Legacy Peak at the booth so everyone will get a chance to play with it at least. I hadn’t planned on trying to run these again until next year but looks like I’ll have to see if David & Shawn have another run in them this year. What color should they be? ---

You have no idea how much I wish there was actually enough demand to make that happen. The love y’all show is is boundless and we cannot thank you enough for it, but the reality of the money side of it is that we are a long, long way from that kind of expansion. ---

Steve answered this well. I’ll just add there are lots of considerations besides money and between the two companies we are 3 people so just because it hasn’t happened doesn’t it mean it won’t. We can only do so much at once. We’re also not digging into the BST looking for what’s hot as a means of deciding what we want to make. ---

Since I like Shawn and don’t want to kill him, this being a “special, small batch” project just made more sense. There’s no perfect path forward so at the end of the day I just think “what would be cool to me?” and go with that. The feedback has been overwhelmingly positive but the critiques are noted and I always do my best to course-correct as we go when I see an opportunity to make y’all happier in a way that makes sense for us. Definitely appreciate the passion everyone brings to our brand. Couldn’t do this without y’all.
