    I just looked at the next release in January, 3rd Jan they're releasing a Mythical Creatures 1oz Griffin. I'm a sucker for a fierce thing like that. Especially as I missed the 3 headed dragon and don't want to bother now the mint is sold out.

    Just because they're sold out at the mint doesn't mean they're sold out everywhere else. Always remember that retailers will always have a separate allocation that will be totally aside from the amount the mint has to sell!

    The three-headed dragon is a commissioned product by Coin Club Australia. I believe they retain a decent allocation of this series so hopefully it should be available at http://www.coinclub.com.au/ for a while longer. Prices do shoot up once the primary market starts to sell out though.

    I've noticed that they tend to "re-release" a lot of their products at increased prices once the primary market has sold out. Sly bit of marketing on their end!
