Normally, something like this is made for a limited duration run and, after that, if it's still selling, another smaller run will be made and sent to retailers. Since neither the retailer or manufacturer want to lose money, they will stop making and selling specialty items like this while they can still get money out of them. This is the same as the Pro Boat Miss Budweiser/Formula/Elam Plus boats that were sold several years ago. They extended their runs by changing the color scheme to the second and, later, third pattern to get maximum return from the molds.
