Looking at the RSD then Warehouse model:
LT1 RSD - 500
LT1 Black - 1,000 (Came 2 months later)
LT2 RSD - 1,000
LT2 Black - 1,500 (Came 1 month later)
LT3 RSD - 1,000
LT3 Black - 1,500 (Came 1 month later)
LT4 RSD - 2,000
LT4 Black - 1,000 (Came 2 months later)
LT5 RSD - 2,000
LT5 Black - 1,000 (Came 1 month later)
If they go off the LT model, it will be 1-2 months from now.
Looking at the subsequently released amounts:
LT1 - 2 times as many as RSD
LT2 - 1.5 times as many as RSD
LT3 - 1.5 times as many as RSD
LT4 - 0.5 times as many as RSD
LT5 - 0.5 times as many as RSD
It seems like the black vinyl runs have been lessening by percentage when looking at LT releases. So if we are to assume 3,000 copies of RR95 were released, the black vinyl cut (if following the LT model), could be 1,500 copies or less.
But, this isn’t an LT release. So really who knows when the black vinyl will come or how many they’ll make. Who knows if it'll be Warehouse only. Who knows if it'll be DMB store only. So all that stuff above may not even matter. But that's precedent from what we've seen so far for similar releases.
