    So I was trying to find this and I couldn't. Does anyone know how many of the 2007 Botcon Mirages were made??

    Well i might be wrong but I think he was the freebie that year so however many box sets were made should be the same number for Mirage...Please correct me if im wrong anyone thank you.

    I would think there are more than the box set number. If they were a freebit figure, than it makes sense to me that more people would be getting/receiving that figure than a very expensive box set.

    Well, since it is from the '07 set, then that would automatically make it hard to find.

    The '07 set is pretty expensive itself... I believe Mirage is pretty rare nowadays and really expensive if you can even find one.

    The number made was never announced. There were several standard ways to obtain the figure not including raffles/giveaways by FunPub.

    Purchase and receive Primus Package - 1 per
    Purchase/rent dealer booth - ? per
    Volunteer - 1 or 2 received, can anyone confirm?

    It's 1 per booth on the freebie figure. And I believe the standard payment for volunteers given the convention freebie has been 2 pieces.

    plus you cannot equate one mirage per box set...because folks could order box sets and have them sent to them as a non attending set..so 500 box sets do not equal 500 mirage figures just as a math example....

    Wasn't that the first year that they said that no matter how many boxed sets you ordered, you'd only get 1 atendee figure per person registered as a Primus package?
