When should a figure seller split preorder releases instead of holding the full bundle?

Split only when the delayed accessory or bonus part is isolated, the first-wave contents stay explicit, and one owner controls the second-wave promise.

Short answer

Split only when the delayed accessory or bonus part is isolated, the first-wave contents stay explicit, and one owner controls the second-wave promise.

Expanded answer

A split preorder release is safer when the missing component is clearly identified, the collector can still receive a coherent first-wave shipment, and the second-wave follow-up already has an owner, timing rule, and proof packet. If the delayed part changes the promised bundle identity or no one can guarantee how the remaining accessory will be released later, a full hold is usually stronger than a manual exception.
