i want to put this on my wall but like with my comics, i'm completely paranoid abt sunlite. any suggestions?

I tried to get one for a friend back in 2012, but there was a line for the line :D
-
yeah, i don't know if i'll ever try for a sdcc mondo print--- ;)
i was just trying to figure how to display it/ buy one from mondo & not ebay even tho it was only $35 over the actual cost
the mondo fans are serious, like pre-reg at teh con serious
-
I have a Hawkeye that I framed with just a regular frame. It's not really in any sunlight though!
-
I was looking at that too
but i think this one may force me to buy it

Mllny happened to be at the Mondo studio during their flat sale on Sat. He picked up a couple of posters for me & I love them!

Ohhhhh so nice!!!!
Mondo prints are my weakness. I have about a dozen and have had to make myself stop b/c only 3 are actually hung on my walls! I don't have room!
-
nice! Love that spidey and doc ock. Im trying to get into the mondo prints after seeing them in person last SDCC just waiting for the right one to come by.
-
OH MAN!!! Now you guys and gals are in my wheel house. I have about 60 Mondo prints, about 8 of them framed and the rest stored in a flat file waiting to get framed. I try to get all mine custom framed, but they are the only art I have hanging in my home besides a few comic art commissions!! I will definitely try and posts some pictures to this thread and if anyone has any questions, feel free to ask!
Mllny was at the flat file sale!?!?! JEALOUS - there were some GEMS in there this weekend!!!

sounds like the beginning of a Mondo floor group at sdcc...... ;) 8)

Any suggestions on a good flat file. I'm ashamed to admit mine that aren't framed are kept in their shipping tubes, which I know is bad.
-
Mondo seems to be addictive.
Getting the prints when they go on sale seems to be as ulcer inducing as SDCC tickets.

yes... definitely use sdcc methods to buying straight from mondo

i've been haunting ebay for a flat file with the settings tuned to 'distance;nearest to you'
i'm thinking a good used metal file would cost abt $250 ish maybe idk
-
$250!!??! This is what happens when people collect outside their means. Ahahaha
-
Any flat file will work as long as the drawers move in and out easily and you line them craft paper, foam core, or something similar (acid free is the way to go - always!).
Ebay is a decent option, but I would be constantly checking Craigslist. That seems to be the place to be to grab some good deals!! I kept checking and it took me about 6 months to find one, but I got a mint metal flat file for $25. It was from a architecture firm that was going out of business and they had about 15-20 for sale. I picked up one and my friend picked up another!
Buying prints from Mondo is honestly just as stressful as SDCC, but those times you do score, it's a great feeling!
Also keeping them in a tube for a short period isn't as terrible as all the hardcore collectors make it seem! I would suggest that you could make an interim 'flat file.' You can take two pieces of acid free foam core and sandwich your prints. Lay them in between the two foam core pieces, lay craft paper or tissue paper between each print, and binder clip the pieces together once you're done. This is something that easily slides under a bed out of the way and will keep your prints safe and flat until you can find/afford a flat file!!!
-
Good advice. The best San Diego has on one on CL right now is $250. There's one in Culver City for $100, too bad that's a bit far.
Looking at one though, I don't think I have space for something like that. I need something vertical I think.
-
now i'm jealous! $25 bucks...lol
-
I'm up to about 20 now and none of them in frames yet. I was able to get 3 of the Guardians prints last year at SDCC. That was an awesome feeling and I really enjoyed talking to the other collectors while waiting for the drop. Way more fun then trying for the Funko line
-
ok
with an eye to forming a FoCC mondo group, what is the best way of communicating during the con?
i would suggest a group text as communication is hard during con. the only other option that might be reliable is a group tweet but I'm not sure of the reliability of that.
thoughts?
-
Mondo tweets out when they put new prints on sale all weekend.
Of course sometimes if you wait for the tweet its already too late (last year's Stout GotG.)
-
They stopped tweeting 2 years ago to avoid madness. They now just have a daily schedule of releases. Many of them you don't get to actually see until they go on sale though.

The tweeted them all last year:
https://twitter.com/MondoNews/status/493432514438909952
and about 20 others ones to, but no need to post a link to each tweet.
And there was no pre-announced schedule, though that would be very nice to have!

This is why they gave out stress balls at Mondo Con with F5 printed on them! LOL!
I don't have any of the Mondo prints yet, unless you count the Scott Pilgrim print I got at Mondo Con (printed at the con, and signed!). I mostly got interested last year because they are starting to do toys. And because they are local.

Hmmm, wonder why they changed back. I didn't go for any last year, it was too GotG-centric. The previous year though I got many. That year the specifically changed their policy and said they were doing it to avoid milling around and mad rushes the tweeting method caused. It was nice. Each day they just tweeted a schedule and they would tweet reminders and at on-sale times, but you knew what the on-sale times were if you read the daily schedule.
-
They were pretty easy to grab last year with the exception of the Tyler Stout Guardians variant - now that was a MESS!!! Basically the line was capped about 5 min after opening the doors on Sunday!
-
i haven't tried for mondo's at sdcc but will this year.
in general when they tweet and/or notify folks, do they send out a pic of the poster? the reason i ask is because i'm real visual abt the posters- regardless of the topic. I'd hate to wait in line & then find out i hate the poster lol
-
Looking it up, it looks like last year they announced what would be sold each day, but I guess not when. I'm guessing that Tyler Stout was so popular because it was the only one released on Sunday and the only one with all characters? The lineup was kinda weak last year, imo. At any point last year did they open "the vault" and start selling older prints? They did in 2013 and I was able to get wreck it ralph and zero dark thirty.
Here's 2014:

Looks like last year they posted images of them all and what days, see my link above. Previous year they posted a schedule of releases but no images. You could walk by the booth and see it though before you decided to line up.

They would tweet out first thing in the morning or the night before with the pictures. I remember heading over to Mondo first thing each morning and knowing what the poster looked like by the time I made it back to their end of the exhibitor's hall. They haven't done the whole 'vault' thing in the past two years which is pretty disappointing, but I can't complain too much - I still love me some Mondo posters!

Not me. I've only got prints in regular colors

Nice Alyssa wanted to go for the Daredevil or Batman TAS but I had other plans that day. Hope to snag some of the Jurassic Park posters when they get released. Have my eye on these two in particular.

Thats my favorite too. I'm a sucker for mashups. Kinda got a Jaws homage. Its done by Francesco Francavilla the same guy who did Snyders Detective Comics run.

Woah, Alyssa, the DD and Gojira posted went out quick! Very jealous. I overslept and missed them, had too much else on my mind last week.

OH MAN!!! Now you guys and gals are in my wheel house. I have about 60 Mondo prints, about 8 of them framed and the rest stored in a flat file waiting to get framed. I try to get all mine custom framed, but they are the only art I have hanging in my home besides a few comic art commissions!! I will definitely try and posts some pictures to this thread and if anyone has any questions, feel free to ask!
Mllny was at the flat file sale!?!?! JEALOUS - there were some GEMS in there this weekend!!!
I only have like 6-8 mondos myself. I'm really only missing one that I realy really want, which is the Stout Shaun of the Dead. I literally became aware of Mondo prints in general right as this one went on sale and I missed it and have regretted it since, and ebay is too much. But that is my number 1 want from them
I was at the flat file sale in April though not there early enough to get anything super rare but yeah I got those Alyssa showed, a Gamora, a Drax, and a Big Eyes, nothing special but was still fun. I just happened to be in Austin for a business conference that weekend and had planned on going to the gallery before I even knew they were doing the flat file sale
I'm up to about 20 now and none of them in frames yet. I was able to get 3 of the Guardians prints last year at SDCC. That was an awesome feeling and I really enjoyed talking to the other collectors while waiting for the drop. Way more fun then trying for the Funko line
I so wish I had one of those GotG, its a nice print! 8)

Yes, we can help each other by updating on lines. Even could have a single person join in line if someone else in group really wants the same poster
-

If I was in line and you had some one "join" you in front of me....I would be pissed.
The mondo lines self police pretty strict on this.
-
If one person joined someone I wouldn't care. It happened a lot when I was in line. I must say, pretty much all your posts here have a poor attitude. The point is to help each other. If I go by the line, I text my group what the drop is and I'm getting in line and one other person joins me shortly what is the big deal? I'd never wait in line for an hour and have someone come in at the last minute. But in all the times I've done the Mondo line I saw plenty of pairs and one person would join shortly after b/c they went to the bathroom or were grabbing food or one would leave to bathroom while the other stayed in the line.

Yeah text will be main form of coms but its sometimes hard to sift through all the texts when looking for something. Just a second option to aggregate the data.
-
Last year there were already people circling around the area (including in me ;D) before the twitter update was sent out and it seemed a few times the line was already capped just as the update was sent out. The benefit of being there early was learning what time the drops would be which seemed to be about the same times everyday and what posters. So if any info is found out ahead of time a text could be sent out just to give a heads up of possible drop times. If anyone is trying for the Jurassic Park posters tomorrow, Good luck!

Might be some artist's proofs for sale early July. Another tweet mentioned some Jurassic original art dropping this week.

Did anyone try this morning for the Jurassic Park part 2 drop? How did you do? I was able to grab the Stan & Vince and Rich Kelly ones.

i heard the McCarthy 18x24 didn't sell out right away

Anyone going for the drop tomorrow?
The thing looks cool, I'm passing but it looks good

I'm saving all my money for SDCC, I hope they have something I want!

I really like the Thing poster as well, but yeah, going into budget mode for the next 2 weeks.

After this last JP drop I really need to save my money for SDCC. What do you think of the first poster Mondo released for SDCC, the WYTCHES?

i'm about to send out the first PM asking for phone/text numbers for the mondo group.
anyone else interested in joining?

Looks like a lot of people are saving up as well, it took some 30 minutes or more to sell out.
Has anyone purchased their LPs? If so, how were they in terms of quality and packaging? We recently dusted off our old record player and records and managed to get it connected to our sound system and it's been fun. Especially since, and I hadn't realized this, there's a lot of really nice albums being put out these days.

I bought their Halloween sountrack and the packaging is amazing. That's why I bought it honestly. Just as a collection piece as I don't even have a record player at the current moment, but have been scouting them for a few months.

thoughts?
-
I was planning the same, a wider tube preloaded with some of that paper they ship with and plastic sleeves, and then a smaller one with a strap to carry around. Figure if I get into a really tight spot I can buy a tube on the floor and then offload it later.
-
omg, yes, glassine paper....cant forget that
-
I suggest bring one of your tubes that Mondo sends the posters in.....the biggest one you have. Also note you wouldn't want to put more than one poster in one of the Fox-sized tubes. 2 years ago I carried one of those b/c of the strap and ended up buying two Mondo posters on the same day.....I had to wrap them too tight to fit them in that tube and they got a little messed up. It sucked.
-
^^this **and**
try & make sure that tube fits into your suit case........ <good luck with that i know but it would be nice>
-
any suggestions
the mondo tubes don't fit into my suit case......... <oh cripes, i'm gonna have to carry them on the plane aren't i?>
-

if worst comes to worst bite the bullet and mail them back? Or just take them as carry on.

FWIW, I've occasionally carried one extra swag-type item onboard Southwest flights and they don't really mind. Especially if you grab a window seat and put it vertically between your leg and the wall, so it doesn't take up overhead bin space..
-

yeah, i may have to do carry on.... <sigh> i think i'll bring some tape bind for binding the tubes together and add a a bit of rope for a shoulder sling
-
I've carried a bag with 3 Yazoo (Mondo brand) tubes on Southwest flights as my carry on for the past 2 cons with NO issues. I just put it in the overhead compartment!

I'm on the fence on the Ant Man. I think I'll be sold once I see it though!
-
agent m saw it & said it was good- of course- i think it'll be fun for the kiddos- not as fun for us as GotG tho
-
Just saw the Ant-Man screening in LA also, courtesy of AgentM. I went in with no expectations. It turned out to be very entertaining, just about on par with GotG. Great action and laughs. I will definitely see it again when it comes to theaters. Now that I know that I like the movie, I may try getting this poster!
-
thx eek
i have had the faith for months that it'd be good- but it's really nice to hear it confirmed by regular folk ;)
does anyone in the group know how to set up a tweet group?
-
We could use a hashtag and save that hashtag search.......the tweets would be public though.
-
Should be able to do a direct message in twitter for 20 people, never tried it before though.
-
Are we thinking Twitter over texts?
-
I think text are best
But chances are the mondo drops will be tweeted
-
I liked it better the year that Mondo said before Con when the drops would be, but you had to go see what they were. I guess there is a benefit to both. Now if they don't announce anything you want, you don't really have to worry about the drops I guess.
So far, there is nothing I want. The Ant Man intrigues b/c b/c of the special holographic paper it's being printed on, but I just don't see myself loving Ant Man so hard I want an $85 poster, b/c the art on it isn't that great, it's the paper making that special.
-
to those of you who travel with the mondo shipping tubes as carry ons....
how many tubes do you travel with? do you put all the posters in one tube- (how many posters is reasonable to get at the con?)
-

I have a giant bag from Lionsgate a few years ago that holds 4 tubes. I use that as my carry on. I've been doing that with Southwest for the past two SDCC's and MondoCon last fall with no issues. It's GIANT and no one has ever said a word haha.
-
like a duffel type of bag?
-
More like the GIANT green Funko bags you get. I carry them standing up!

Thanks! This is our 1st time flying back, need to get used to the fact that I can't just jam everything in the car.

thx gusgus
i found a use for those huge hasbro bags.... fold it down to fit 3 mondo shipping tubes, tape & reinforce the straps. gotta love gaffers tape- not duct tape but the full on gaffers <grin>
tube carrier made just in time for the flight tomorrow
i'm bringing packing tape & string in case i need to manufacture something while at con

Mondo has so many great prints especially the one of Pacific Rim.

Jaws print available on preview night
https://twitter.com/MondoNews/status/618507863791538176
Preview of Wytches print by Jock also Scott Snyder will be present to sign with Jock too.
https://twitter.com/jock4twenty/status/618431972336136192

Picked up Jaws preview nite, and Godzilla and later Avengers on Friday. Wasted time with a friend at the Petco ballpark parking lot(mostly local ghetto people with no badge), waste of time, but most likely would have not lined up in time for Ant-man, which being put on ebay already for $399 :o
I see mondo blowing up next year and then being played out just like Funko, everyone I've talked too agrees most of their posters just sit in tubes or in a flat file, cause of lack of wall space or having too many prints!!
-
I got
the red godzilla (thx to Cracksback)
the Wytches signed by both Snyder & Jock
snyder didn't attend on Sat when they went on sale but came back sunday for a signing at 3p
antman
i also got my Babylon 5 poster signed by a bunch of cast members
-
I got Godzilla and Aliens and I'm pretty darn happy with them!! Looks like nothing on Saturday except Ant Man sold out. Weird. Ninja Turtles didn't either.....I knew that one just wasn't very cool, but thought it might still sell out since it was Jock and he was there signing them, but no.
-
Anyone going for ant-man tomorrow? Missed out on all the drops last week because of volunteering. Managed to get a Crimson Peak print after the madness died down from the ant-man drop saturday afternoon.
-
i will not be

I missed the Ant-Man drop at SDCC so I tried for this drop and got one!

I feel so late to the Mondo game. I just bought 3 prints in the past week or so. The Jared Muralt Godzilla and Gozilla variant and the Rich Kelly TMNT II: Secret of the Ooze. I don't have anywhere to display them until I buy a home with a dedicated nerd/game room. Any recommendations on sleeves, backings and flat boxes? I don't want to store them rolled.

Our first mondo print is the Black Stallion one and it's gorgeous. It don't sell out fast like these other ones but wife and I wanted it because it's one of the older movie that we enjoy. Still haven't displayed it yet though.

that's the tricky one
i ended up getting a flat file from ebay for abt $150, i think. it's up thread somewhere. it requires a place to put it--- the other option is a portable portfolio. i was even thinking of poster board (acid free) with some strong clamps like this (https://www.friendsofcc.com/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.homedepot.com%2Fcatalog%2FproductImages%2F1000%2Fb6%2Fb6d6fd35-095b-4098-b194-63ee60c4133a_1000.jpg&hash=0c99ad9da7e2e92a49d0a904f9960960d79c57a9)
-
Looks like I'll have I'll have to go the portable portfolio option. Wife and I are saving for a house and our little one bedroom has no space for a flat file cabinet. I saw some pretty nice looking antique wood flats files that would look amazing in my future game/nerd room. Does anyone buy their sleeves and poster boards online or is it all Michaels?
Anyone doing Mondo Con? I'm trying to sweet talk my old coworker into going for me. I offered to buy his entrance ticket and lunch if he would buy some Mondo Con exclusives. Doesn't hurt to ask.

i buy my stuff at michaels- even get stuff framed there. i have gotten 24x36 framed with a simple black metal frame for abt $106
i did buy a roll of glassing paper to go between teh prints

Thanks Alyssa. I'll go check them out once they have that 40% coupon back online.

in my area Michaels is doing a 60% then 20% sale on framing.
it was this sale which resulted in a $106 cost for framing of a 24x36 with a simple frame.
-
Yikes! I bought both those Pacific Rim Mondo posters off Ebay for my son for Xmas, and now I am reading this about the framing costs. I didn't realize how expensive it was going to be, if I had I probably would have held off buying the Star Wars Lego Millennium falcon. Im hoping they will have a really awesome sale on Black Friday.

I agree Dolphina. We received sticker shock also when we framed out Corgi drawing at Michaels. The frame was waaaay more expensive than the art work.
-
If yer not too concerned with the special UV glass, I just buy regular frames and frame them myself. I wait til the Aaron Brothers "buy one, get one for a penny" sale or one of the Michael's Buy One, Get One Free sales and get two at a time for the price of one since frames that big are around $80-$100 regularly priced. The biggest you can usually get are 24x36 which fits the largest Mondo posters perfectly. I bought a roll of hanging wire and a pack of D-rings for cheap and then when I get a new one I just mount the d-rings and string the wire and they are good to go for hanging.
-
for nice prints you need to make sure the print isn't against the glass- pro framing will come with a space between the print & the frame. OR
Use a mat. it's tricky with the large mondos tho...
-
I prefer to stick my posters on the wall in my house whenever I get new ones. I store the old posters in a box in the small room underneath my staircase

Anyone going for tomorrow's posters?
Lusting after the rocketeer and black swan
-
Those look great, think I like the regular Rocketeer better than the variant. Hemming and hawing about the He-man one.

I'd be cool if I could get some Metal Gear Solid mind prints

Is mondo putting it on? Cuz this is a thread abt posters....
Or should I jump to the other conclusion?

It is not from Mondo. I was speaking about original artwork instead of prints. My apologies for replying to a topic about posters.

Has anyone seen a Mondo poster of Michael Myers in B&W with red leaves falling? Mondo had it on their FB page but I don't see it for sale so I am wondering if it's just a promo or if it was actually made. Thanks!

Yeah, that poster is a few years old and very pricey now on the aftermarket. Wish I had one. I'm ordering the limited MM they have right now for 72 hours.

hey, we all could set up a voice chat... and work together....

Might have to buy whatever we can and ask about exchanges after the fact. With Mondo actually announcing an exact start time for the sale, and with just a few of each poster available, there's going to be a lot of checkout errors :(
-
I'm hoping I'll be home in time. I'm going shopping after I get off of work. I want to be home in front of the computer and not trying to buy on my iPhone.

very disappointed ...... didn't get anything, really wanted the star wars set!
nor did any of my voice chat group! :-\
-
Same here, at some point I just started added random stuff to see if anything was actually available. Couldn't find a thing! Seems to be a big delay updating what was sold out or not. Some things that it wouldn't let me buy right away are still not showing sold out until you go checkout.
UPDATE: That seemed odd to me, so went back and, sure enough, my script blocker was blocking a shopify script which was resulting in things changing to unavailable when I went to checkout. Unblocked it and now at least I could buy the last few things left if I wanted to :)
Shouldn't have too much trouble this weekend finding other things to buy.
-
I struck out, got nothing, that said i wanted the rarer stuff, but if i could have gotten a Shaun of the Dead Stout ugh

no luck here :-\

Some Marvel posters and pins released tomorrow. Like the Becky Cloonan Dark Phoenix print. The Thor/Loki combo is clever.

i'm considering the loki print & the doc strange pin.....
enjoying the Thanos & 'enter the dimension of doom' posters.....
-
I am seriously considering the pins. I have gotten several from them, and they display so nicely (and compactly!) I do love the Thor/Loki prints and the Nightcrawler.
ETA-Bought the Loki print. The pins I wanted were sold out (I forgot to turn on the twitter notification-doh!)
-
i got the loki print but missed the pins too
looks like there was interest in the pins, the loki/thor & the thanos prints since they're all sold out.
i was hoping for the doc strange & daredevil pins, oh well

yes, i'm using this thread as a general poster collecting thread.
i do think the original was a mondo tho-- i could be wrong

No Mondo print for Civil War? :( I know they had the magazine cover artwork for Birth. Movies. Death., but I thought for sure they would be making some awesome prints for it.

I should try and get a picture of my brother's Mondo collection. Ever since I started going back to SDCC (he hadn't for years until this year because he lived across the country) he always had me pick up some from the con for him. Always fun walking through huge numbers of people with those, especially the year I didn't have my post tube!

There's a spa my wife likes, conveniently close to a bookstore I like, and we went there on a recent getaway. We hadn't been there in some years and it has changed management in the interim, while the overall decor is still very "spa" they now have the walls covered in prints from Mondo and some other companies. Makes for an interesting contrast.
Had a nice chat with one of the managers, who gave me this list of other places that sell posters, I had known about Gallery 1988 and Bottleneck before, but not the others.

In one of Bottleneck's recent sales they did a lottery for a Phish print, wondeing if we will start to see more of this.
For David's Phish print, in order to make it fair, we will be holding a one hour lottery from 12pm - 1pm.
The lottery rules are:
Only one entry per household
No purchase necessary. Entry is free, just checkout with the $0 lottery entry ticket on the homepage
Winners will be chosen randomly right after the contest ends
You will have 15 minutes to purchase or we will go to the next winner
No exceptions
Loved this one that they had at the spa from Gallery 1988, Rhys Cooper is the artist.

Some Scarlet Witch too, based off of David Aja's recent covers.

oh drat
/weakness/
-
That variant is growing on me. Dangit.
But say I do go for the DD poster but I DON'T buy the Star Wars ep 1-3 posters that Bottleneck is also dropping tomorrow, then I still come out ahead financially right?
-
we're kidding ourselves thinking we've got a chance getting that variant.... you know that right? >:D
-
Pretty much. I did get lucky with the Jurassic Park variant, so planning to fall back on that as an emotional cushion.
UPDATE:
;D
-
you got the variant?
i've got the regular in my cart... and i waited too long drat
-
Shoot. Got CTRL-R lucky on the variant.
-
i didn't think i'd even be playing the game as i had an appt- oh well- i'm really really really trying to divest myself of excess collectibles
-
Glad I missed this.....I'd have bought it and I don't need to buy it!!!!
-
Yeah, I need to throttle it back a bit. Which means they will drop something ridiculously cool next week :)
TBH, the competitive nature of the sale is a bit addictive as well. To quote the great philosopher Peter J. Quill, "One of my issues."
-
Those prints do look rad, so not shocked it went fast. That said, I'll stick to my Spidey vs Green Goblin print from SSC. For me, It's Spidey (or Evil Dead) or nothing. :) However, I do have the GotG Variant Edition from Grey Matter Art, so maybe that rule doesn't work all the time? Idk, this hobby is deadly thus it's hard to say no to things sometimes.
-
In addition to the crazed collectors, there's a strong ebayer presence with Mondo, especially the variants. Already there's 20 listed and 2 sold for the variant, which was limited to 150.

Of course...
The real fans don't get it, it's the resellers. *Sigh*

Mondo drops are relatively simple if you dedicate the time. They usually all take place within the same window of time, but if you are relying on getting a notification from Twitter, there is no use try.

Welp, that just got BOUGHTEN!!
The only other Mike Mitchell portrait I've gotten is Michael Myers, it hangs in my hallway and delights first time visitors.
There's a timed edition Princess-Leia Mike Mitchell poster, Timed edition so no pressure on this one :)
"Available as a timed-edition for 72-hours from Thursday (1/26) at 12PM CST through Sunday (1/29) at 12PM CST.
In support of Carrie's love of animals (particularly, her French bulldog, Gary Fisher), we will be donating 10% of Princess Leia portrait sales to local animal welfare groups."

Man, I really would love that Kamala print if she didn't look like a 30 year-old woman. Something about that bothers me.

Bought the recent Wicket and Leia prints from the limited release. Other than that I only have a couple of their records. SO many more I wish I had though. :/

Last week I saw on Twitter that Mondo in collaboration with Project Raygun (division of USAopoly) will be making a board game called: Infection at Outpost 31, which is based on John Carpenter's The Thing. I'm really looking forward to this board game, can't wait to Mondo's influence in its design.

If I strike out and you get lucky, while mllNY gets his, he's first, I wouldn't mind taking that if there's another. Pay you back of course.

Too bad Mondo does not open up the sale only for us here. >:D
Btw, if you didn't know, when the item is in your cart, it won't be reserved for you. You must complete the whole process to get one.

I know right!
Too bad the cart situation reverted. Nothing worse than having something in your cart and it disappearing while the payment info is being processed. Good luck everyone!

I've never flipped a print, so I'll be keeping it. Might trade it if I miss something in the future.
As to how I got one - mix of luck and speed. I've got the UI of Mondo's site memorized - so a lot of it is "muscle memory", knowing what to press and when whenever the page changes.

Awesome! Glad a true fan got one. Not a bot. I almost got one. I was super fast did everything under 10secs and after doing the final part, got zip. So close but yet so far. Oh well, I'll check eBay six months from now. The prices should drop.

Wow! I've never seen anything like that. I'm sorry :'(

Precisely. I haven't tried for one in a while so didn't know which.

It's usually the front page. That was the only page I was looking at.

Bah. Lost mine after I hit the payment button. Sorry [member=1222]mllNY[/member]
Was camping both the main page and what I thought would be the page for the variant, but they misspelled variant in the url. Brutal. "varriant"
Weird too how they dropped the regular and metal first, but took a while for the variant to show up. Saw a regular pop back into inventory but was gone again before I could pay for it.

Price will certainly drop, but keep an eye out on Stouts personal website, I'm not sure if you already know, but a lot of times he will have a lottery for his AP's. www.tstout.com

Btw everyone, the prints are already on eBay, as expected.

Just saw tweet that they are cancelling duplicate orders over the next 30 min, so watch maybe one will pop up.

Came closer this time then ever before, but not close enough.
If they care about the process being fair, which they claim to do, they should use a lottery system.

Tyler Stout uses a lottery for his half of the allotment.
So since Stout gets half of his releases, if you think you will have a better chance at a lottery, go sign up for his newsletter and await his instructions, that way you can see if you have better luck with a lottery system. IMO, a lottery is worthless. The type of people are using bots to flip prints on eBay are probably the same type of people will sign up for a thousand accounts to tip a lottery in their favor. Either way, good luck.
-
Like to know how you can cheat Stout's system. Stout requires that the email you use to enter his lottery must be tied to the paypal account used to pay. People may have many email accounts, but who has "thousands" of paypal accounts?
-
You can link up to 8 e-mail addresses to one PayPal account. If you've seen the price of the 80+ eBay sales today on eBay, you probably know flippers know no bounds when it comes to turning a profit. I'm sure they've got everyone in their family connected to an account.
Also, I'd imagine it's easy to register hundreds of e-mail address, then just register a new PayPal account for whatever account gets selected. I don't think Stout is going to be verifying the date that the PayPal account was registered.
Ah well, I'm off it. Good luck to everyone in future Mondo drops!
-
The unfortunate reality of most collecting is that flippers ruin everything.
-
I'm still bummed, even though I didn't want the poster for myself. These sales just get me so riled up. Probably should have gone for the regular version but I had such a nice stretch of variant luck going.

Ackbar was only at SDCC last year. Due to this he is probably about the 2nd most expensive one in the set to get after the impossible to find Greedo.

I did a Gary Fisher photo op at SVCC and the Stars Wars Celebration Leia Pop just happened to arrive that morning, I almost took it with me for the photo but it was too sad. (Gary wasn't especially cooperative in the photo anyway, probably my fault for wearing a Vader shirt.)
If anyone wants to get started on the Mike Mitchell Star Wars prints, Mondo is having a timed edition on these through 12pm Central time on 5/7.

Very happy today -- I was able to score one Spider-Gwen print today. I could have done the variant, but the unmasked version wasn't doing it for me. I like the one with the mask on better, but that's me. That being said, both versions are cool and represent the character really well.

I've been trying to cut back on posters (with middling success) and didn't try for this one, but in the future if there's a drop you really like feel free to post and ask for some backup. I've occasionally been able to help people in the past, though I've more often failed at trying to help people, but with Mondo being so incredibly competitive any edge helps.
There's also the big sale they have once a year, chances are really slim of course but there's still a chance especially if you're just trying to go for one particular thing.
And on Matt Taylor's twitter there was this, "For those asking: Baby Driver APs will be on sale at @ThoughtBubbleUK in September and @MondoConAustin in November" if you happen to know anyone going to those festivals.
Also, congratulations on raising a daughter with good taste in movies :)

Awwww thanks, I got lucky when they were handing out kiddos, lol. It was funny because I had to talk her into going see it the 1st time, I told her she would love it since she loves Scott Pilgrim & The Cornetto Trilogy but as soon as we walked out she wanted to see it again.
I really appreciate the offer of help for the next one & I should have posted up about it but we have been in such a frantic state trying to finish up our cosplays that it slipped my mind.
Look forward to meeting you on Tuesday.

The APs will be at his booth and not at the mondo booth. But also...his APs are priced at market value, not original price so if you don't want to wait it will be basically the same price as eBay.

I was able to finally get the Baby Driver print from Matt Taylor just before Christmas. I just picked it up from the framer last night. It turned out so nice.

Signed too, very nice! Ditto to what alyssa said about the framing, (and there's even a matching jacket or something next to it :) ) I so need to up my game.

Thanks, I really love how it came out. I’m also so excited that he signed it as well. I’m going to have to redo my wall with all my art work so I can give it the prime spot.
Mark, that is my arm chair next to it, if that tells you how big it is.

Alyssa, thanks so much! I wish I could have got a better picture with better light. The mat has these beautiful threads that catch the light, just stunning.
My daughter was over the moon for this gift, she said that it was the best Christmas she has ever got. It was so worth getting up in the middle of the night to buy it from Matt Taylor’s website.

also FYI to people. Maybe something extra coming with our portfolios

Got a cool update on the portfolio,
Good morning!
We wanted to send out a second update regarding Batch #1 orders. The container has been loaded on to the vessel in China and is on its way to the NY port. You can track the progress of the vessel by clicking here. The vessel is scheduled to arrive at the NY port on March 21st, after that it has to clear customs and the container has to get transported to our shipping depot where it will be unpacked and then shipping will commence. As long as customs doesn't hold the container for inspection and there are no delays on the voyage, we hope to have all of Batch #1 orders out by the end of March/first week of April the latest.
The link to track the ship is https://www.hmm21.com/cms/business/ebiz/trackTrace/trackTrace/index.jsp?numbers=YNWB1547101&type=1&number=YNWB1547101&is_quick=Y&quick_params=&userNation=ebiz (https://www.hmm21.com/cms/business/ebiz/trackTrace/trackTrace/index.jsp?numbers=YNWB1547101&type=1&number=YNWB1547101&is_quick=Y&quick_params=&userNation=ebiz)
Speaking of cool things, poster from jock dropping this week as a timed edition.

Yay! Was able to score the Ep. V Variant! 8) And last week I was able to score that Black Panther poster as well! Hehe! Hopefully I can get this lucky with the Fugitive Toys Party sale!
For the Ep. V print, the timed edition is up and looks pretty sexy, so get it if you're thinking about it.

I was lucky enough to make the first wave. I know people are anxiously awaiting theirs so I will try not to go in about HOW AWESOME IT IS. But I can answer any questions. Going to spend some time today filling it up. My only concern so far is that the dividers in the sleeves seem pretty flimsy. The posters are pretty thick though so maybe it will be ok when get things in it.

Show us pics too! I am so eager to get mine b/c all my Mondo posters that aren't framed are currently rolled and each day I don't get this and they stay rolled is torture! If I had room for a flat file, I'd have gotten one ages ago, but I live in a little one bedroom apartment so this thing has been a godsend.

They contacted me about shipping since I entered a PO Box but they were using FedEx. I got the impression that they were pretty on top of things and fast to respond. (Plus emails were from an actual person instead of an automated system.)

I am kicking myself that I didn't order more sleeves but I remedied that today. Here are a few pics, they are fuzzy since it's hard to focus the camera with the sleeves. It's a little tricky to get them in the sleeves, especially the full 3' by 2' ones if they are still rolled, but it works if you are slow and methodical. As they flatten out more I have to make some adjustments as well if they start to peek out of the sleeve. You can see these are still flattening.

It works well for several sizes, I also have some 3' by 1' banners that fit side by side.
(https://comiccondad.files.wordpress.com/2018/04/20180408_192400.jpg)
This is what I'm also excited about, a while pile of tubes and packing that is destined for recycling.
(https://comiccondad.files.wordpress.com/2018/04/20180408_192536.jpg)
I've ordered another Itoya 18'' by 24'' to move those sizes into, but for now was on a untubing kick. Funny thing is when I order a portfolio from amazon it offers me 2 and 4 year TV protection plans, apparently since the product has dimensions in the name. sigh.

Two Mystery tubes from HCG. A wise person would wait to open them until the extra sleeves from Baroque get delivered next month. I'll probably last an hour.

FINE ;) Actually I think all but 3 of these will fit in the smaller portfolios.
These are right out of the tube so pictures will be a bit dodgy. Added some artists, some of these are surprisingly hard to identify ...
*********************************************
Mystery tube 1
(https://comiccondad.files.wordpress.com/2018/05/20180518_112930.jpg)
Walking Dead, "Smoke Break" by Evanimal, signed.
L'Ultron Vitruviano? yep, "Vitruvian Ultron" by Chris Weston, signed.
Scarlet Witch, ??? not shown in their Age of Ultron collection but dated 2015. Signed but can't make out the name.
30 Days of Night, "There is no God" by Tony Hodgkinson, signed. (Not sold out online)
Bruce Lee sticker
Generic HCG sticker
Edna "Go Fight Win!" Mode
Mystery tube 2
(https://comiccondad.files.wordpress.com/2018/05/20180518_113910.jpg)
Buzz Lightyear (I believe this is Spanish language mode from TS3. With this and Edna from the other tube, was there a "mode" series?)
The Thing, signed but can't make out the name.
(https://comiccondad.files.wordpress.com/2018/05/20180518_114011.jpg)
more Walking Dead, by Grzegorz Domaradzki (regular version, not the variant)
(https://comiccondad.files.wordpress.com/2018/05/20180518_114119.jpg)
Hardcore Henry, "Hey Henry, It's Jimmy" by Adam Rabalais
*********************************************
Overall, I feel like mystery tubes I've bought from Bottleneck and Grey Matter were better deals, but I'm happy. Scarlet Witch and The Thing are my favorites, both are prints where I don't think I would have bought them based on a digital image, but they are much more effective irl. The Thing has a "scratch and dent" stamp on the back but it must be minor, I couldn't see anything. Each tube also had a Ryan Tobin pin with the Con Air symbol.
-
Yeah haven't seen any HCG tubes that I would have been happy with, glad I held off.
Save my money for those sweet Bottleneck mystery tubes!
-
that 'The Thing" is really really nice. I'd even put that in my living room- nice and subtle yet it pulls the viewer in.
I also really like the L'Ultron Vitruviano? yep, "Vitruvian Ultron" by Chris Weston, signed. It's a fun play on the classic
yep- i just did it again- liking all the pencil/ black and white posters LOL
ok well a close 3rd is the Walking Dead, by Grzegorz Domaradzki & it has some color on it LOL
I would buy a mystery tube from them- the second tube with the thing & WD... that's totally worth it imo
-
The Thing poster is oddly relaxing, which makes it even better. I have a Shining poster (from a different mystery tube, oddly enough) that it'll pair nicely with.
I did figure out that the Pixar prints were by Tom Miatke and The Thing is by David Moscati. (I spent way too much time today searching online and going through everything on HCG's site, there's some pretty nice stuff on there that hasn't sold out.) I still have not been able to identify the Scarlet Witch artist.
Not counting stickers and pins, it works out to about $14 per item which is a deal I'm quite ok with. The Hardcore Henry is my least favorite but it will be the perfect gift for a friend of mine.
-
Was rolling the Scarlet Witch print back up and finally noticed this stamp on the back, so mystery solved. I still can't find any mention of it online.
Darkseid arrived today. Love the paper they used.(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180519/eceed7e393069c43108fc00b1284b8d6.jpg)

I almost went for that, but I backed out. I'm glad you got one!
Funniest thing I found when emptying tubes into the portfolio was four Expendables 3 posters. A few years ago at SDCC they were giving them away at a booth and it ended up being a great crowd-avoiding shortcut to just go through the booth and take a poster. Had completely forgotten about them.

FYI, unpacked my extra baroque sleeves today and noticed that a few of them have a pretty bad crease in them. Bad enough that I think it could damage a poster. Going to see if I can press them out or something, but just a caveat.

I'd take a pic, send it to them and ask for a new set. Truth be told, I was not that impressed with my portfolio when I got it. Feels very cheap

That said I hope they make a 4'' tube, they are about tto sell a 5'' tube for cons but I want a 4'' for flights and I really hope they make something to help flatten my prints before putting it into the portfolios.

What do people use to flatten? I usually use some matte sheets and those protection sheets posters ship with to make a kind of sandwich and then leave that under the bed for a while.

I use literal weights from an adjustable dumbbell ;D I just took the plates off an extra dumbbell, which net me 8 individual weights, haha. I used to be really finicky about it, and put them in ziplock bags first, but now I usually just lay them on top of kraft paper or foam top layer of whatever I'm flattening at the time.
-

The best thing to do to flatten is to head to a Michaels/Aaron/Hobby Shop and get 2 sheets of Acid Free Foam Boards, sometimes the boards are fairly larger than the standard print but the hobby shop can cut them down a bit. Since prints are 24 x 36 I recommend cutting the boards down to like 26-28' x 38-40' to give you sufficient room on either side of the print. Then get those large binder clips and sandwich the poster between them. You can put craft paper between prints when flattening but I wouldn't go more than 2 or 3 prints in one sandwich. Then just set it and forget it; the longer the poster has been in the tube the longer it will take to flatten and generally you will always have some curve at the ends.
Also if your poster has been in a tube for a while before you begin to flatten it just take it out of the tube and let it sit for a day or two to loosen it up a drop. Then begin flattening.
You could also get a third board which is what I did and that lets you flatten two prints/sets of prints at a time.
I've gone up to 4 prints in one sandwich but those are times where the prints had not been rolled for a long period of time so I only needed a few days to flatten and I had lots of craft paper between each print.
-
in your opinion ;)
In my opinion, yes. As well as the general consensus in most Mondo / print groups....and based on prices on ebay....
But Man Who Fell to Earth / Annihilation / Jurassic Park (daniel Danger) all 3 are amazing and great pieces worth the Mondo madness.

Punisher poster and LP drop tomorrow. Kind of surprised they announced an exact time, I guess it's because of the LP and their regular Wednesday thing.

On Saturday afternoon when I was in line for the Ansin, Mo made a lil' mini-announcement that the "holding cell" continuation of the line at the back by the emergency exit doors was officially done and they would be moving that line towards the bathroom over by the Blizzard booth. I was curious if anyone in line Saturday after 3PM waited in that line (or Sunday for the Infinity War drop), and if so - was curious if it worked any better?
It isn't really new information that Mondo vs. Security can be a bit of a hassle, but I was really hopeful that the bigger booth would alleviate some of that stress this year - but that didn't seem to be the case, at least in my experience with the Taylor/Kurtz drop and the Ansin drop.
-
Not sure how the saturday drop after Ansin went (as that was the only one I did that day). Sunday though they hadn't out tickets as soon as doors opened to floor, I went right to the booth but were already gone so did stick around to see how the line went.

I liked the ticket handout in the morning cause then you could just come back when the line was easier.
Not sure how they would handle that for mid day drops.
I've seen Justin get into it with security once. Its gotta be tough on both sides but what is the solution. Mondo can't go lotto portal, aside from the fact that they keep the releases so close to the chest, if they went lotto they would have to do something where you put your credit card info in and if you win you get charged, otherwise people might back out then they have problems

They did mid day tickets for the Annihilation / Ghostbusters release on Friday. I liked it as I just showed up a few minuted before they started handing them out and then got one. That being said I know a lot of people didn't like it as there was some confusion where they would hand them out.
-
Yeah, I was in line in the afternoon and got tickets for Kurtz/Taylor drop - I didn't mind it either but there was absolutely no way I was leaving and coming back after the mild chaos I witnessed. The organization of that drop made me worry if I didn't just wait in line, they might not be there later.

Tomorrow we'll be releasing the first round of posters & pins remaining from @Comic_Con! JURASSIC WORLD: FALLEN KINGDOM, CASTLEVANIA, DIE HARD, BENEATH THE PLANET OF THE APES, GHOSTBUSTERS & more! On Sale 8/14, random time: http://spr.ly/6011DQNeN

yeah, i don't know if i'll ever try for a sdcc mondo print---
i was just trying to figure how to display it/ buy one from mondo & not ebay even tho it was only $35 over the actual cost
the mondo fans are serious, like pre-reg at teh con serious
I’m having mine framed by Simplyframed.com. They do use UV filtering glass/plexi glass.
I did some research and they seemed to represent the best value and quality price point. Frame and mat colors are limited in order to keep costs down. I shipped in a tube and they received it today. I’ll post about how it turns out.
Edit- Aaaaaaand just realized I responded to a post from 5 years ago. It’s still relevant, so I guess I won’t delete it. Time for sleep.
-
yes [member=1]alyssa[/member] let us know how that not every trying for a SDCC Mondo print has worked out for you in the 5 years from that post...
-
I lov this
Wicked good laughs

[member=6586]chocolateshake[/member] thanks for the recommendation, I will check them out.
That 2013 post was probably around the same time that I was thinking, "Funko Pops!? I just don't get it, I'll never start collecting those ..." ;)
Good luck to anyone trying in today's drop!

Die Hard and Planet of the Apes sold out right way. Everything else still up, surprised the Last Jedi variant didn't go faster.

I know, i shouldn't have... but it's the end of Con season & i'm hopeful won't have any more con related expenses- I think there's only one more con i'm going to till the spring.
the issys are just amazing in person- I 've got one or 2 of their older ones-
just looking at both the Blade Runner prints - i was going to go for the regular version but traditionally the foil look better in person. I took a leap and went for the foil.
the dino & SW both just fit into my buying matrix & if I ever do a theme wall they'll fit in very very well

thx for posting [member=1732]SamTurtledove[/member] i was wondering how long it took them to sell out.
all the nycc exclusive items are now sold out, fyi
sounds like the BR and RotJ variants went quick, I'm kinda surprised the LotR variant sold out before the regular- the regular is soooo much prettier

are they doing an online sale?
Most likely, yes! They haven't stated anything yet, but I think they will do what they typically do with shows, "leftovers" that don't sell from the gallery opening will make it online a week or so afterwards.
If a Stout makes an appearance, I imagine they will have an online version/variant. But they've been pretty quiet on artist announcements for this show, though I think Matt Taylor Black Panther is a soft confirmation with all the teases he's been doing.

i gotta admit that batman & robin is growing on me
so big reveal, [member=1222]mllNY[/member] picked up all the posters for me & he didn't even have a tube- he really went above and beyond. this is an official Thank You to Mike for helping me out. And the posters will be in the mail tomorrow- i'm like, wow.... I'm floored.
I've got too many posters to flatten & not enough space
but my burning question is what posters did Mike get? I know he must have gotten a LotR.....
-
I think MllNY *might* have gotten a Good Omens poster. Or two.... >:D
-
I really enjoyed all the art I saw; BNG, GMA, HCG, Vice Press, Spoke all knocked it out of the park. I of course also saw some original art I wanted in AA but because of other issues I was actually very tame and just got the LotR Two Towers; however I was able to get my matching numbers from Fellowships so there is that.
That Blade Runner Variant is gorgeous in person.
I wanted the Ferguson book, but a day or two before con a buddy who had some feelers out was able to secure the ThoughtBubble slipcover version for me which I really wanted.
I did get the one thing I really wanted, the one thing I was pining for, the one thing I could not get from a PB at ThoughtBubble - the Matt Ferguson Thanos coin. He only brought 30 to give out at the show. I think I may have been one of the first people to ask him and I got it on day one by 10:10 AM.

but just because I didn't buy a lot of art doesn't mean I didn't get a lot...I did something I never do at con and went for cast signings.
you tell me how I did
American Gods art by Matt Taylor (cast signed)
(https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-14NwdDd2xWY/W7yvhxN7y3I/AAAAAAAADrc/oamssKk1HRICRxREZcZJznG1Pxev4GP2gCL0BGAYYCw/h720/2.jpg)

Hellboy art by ? (if you know let me know) (and you guessed it cast signed)
(https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-qztYrRaPoaQ/W7yvmYioAdI/AAAAAAAADsA/UAKPefN-pAUM7XhA-ajsRIhAVMV0ZrQsQCL0BGAYYCw/h720/4.jpg)
all I am missing is Ian McShane since he apparently had Kidney stones so he missed both Hellboy and American Gods signings
[member=314]Transmute Jun[/member] or two...
-
[member=1222]mllNY[/member] I ***knew*** you must have gotten some spectacular stuff ;D
are u going to frame some of them ? as i said to [member=5732]superkatchick[/member] that Good Oman poster would look really really nice on a wall. I'm coming to like smaller prints these days, maybe it's because i have a small place.
I have to say tho, 'you only got the LotR from bottleneck...../speechless/
I was tempted to look at the offerings from GMA, HCG, Spoke etc all but - i knew i'd just spend more money
Thx for the reassurance on the BladeRunner variant-
I've almost got my place sorted so can start framing & putting art up
I think MllNY *might* have gotten a Good Omens poster. Or two.... >:D
yeah- i know how mike rolls ;)
-
down the road I will consider framing. two issues at the moment.
1. I have so much other stuff I need to frame.
2. Ian McShane didn't sign cause he was sick so none of those would be framed until he signed. Good Omens though could get framed but see point 1 above
-
anyone going for round 2 pints today? in 25 mins?

BNG
Jim Pollock and The Plaque Doctor sold out quickly. Next to go was Guardians of the Galaxy, Regular version only on sale, no foil offered.

It is! I was looking at it earlier today on my phone and just gave up after a while. I like how, for some posters, they have different sizes.
Grabbed the Ragnarok variant from Grey Matter. They send me an authorization code that I had to enter before completing the purchase which was new.

I wanted that Francaville SO BAD but alas I missed it. I got the Avengers variant & the Iron Man variant.
How did everyone else do?
-
I was able to get my number one target: the Spider-Man: Homecoming poster! I had a chance to get the Avengers (variant) poster as well, but for some reason, it wasn’t doing it for me. Plus, I am waiting for part 2 with Civil War and (maybe) Avengers 3. Anything with Spidey in it, I am focusing on that.
But for now, very happy about today’s get!

I ended up getting the Spidey poster as well. Was definitely feeling the Ferris Bueller vibe. Only other one I was looking at was Captain America but that was gone quick.
Hoping for some luck in the next round :)
-
I was at the gallery again the second to last day before they show ended, and they weren't sold out of anything at that point so you have a good chance. While the Black Panther posters were on display, they weren't for sale yet due to not getting the licensing on time. I believe the only one that got close to selling out was one of the Doctor Strange poster (can't remember which one).
-
Ah, I was able to get the Civil War print moments ago! 8) Now I went with the regular version over the variant. I did not see that much of a difference to justify spending $25 more.

that's a nice print- i was considering it too congrats

[member=1]alyssa[/member] the Stout was only in-person this past weekend at the Isle of Dogs pop up in NY hosted by Spoke Art.
There may be an online release, its a bit sketchy on if Spoke Art held any back however look for Tyler Stouts lotto for his allotment.
I went Friday in the rain and was 4th in line, got a regular and a variant. There was some speculation while we were waiting if we could buy a set or just one, but right before they let us in Ken told us that because we were troopers that waited in the rain they were allowing us to buy a regular and a variant.
That also said I did learn there was a VIP event on hursday, which likely explains why my number was so high and why there seemed to be a very limited number of the variants available

Pawnee National Park Charity Variant by Mark Englert
(https://www.hidefninja.com/community/attachments/5-png.403020/)
We love superheroes. They give us hope, and allow us to aspire to be the best versions of ourselves, while also allowing our dreams to run wild with possibilities. And while we tend to deal with the fictional types of superheroes with some of our releases, there are often real superheroes out in the world that we hear about, and we want to support these heroes as best as we can. So this week, we’re releasing a new edition of Mark Englert’s Pawnee National Park print to support the relentlessly brave and heroic firefighters battling the devastating fires out in California.
Thanks to our many vigilant buyers and fans, we’ve been made aware that Mark Englert’s previous version of Pawnee, which we released as a limited edition print a few years ago, has unfortunately been stolen and used without Mark's consent. In order to help combat art piracy, and to help the much more important issue of firefighter safety, we’ve teamed up with Mark to release a special timed edition variant of the Parks and Rec inspired Pawnee National Park print.
100% of the profits from this print release will go to the Los Angeles Fire Department in order to fund more hydration backpacks, which help firefighters as they combat the wildfires plaguing California. If you’d like to support the LAFD without purchasing a print, please feel free to donate directly at supportlafd.org--every cent is greatly appreciated, and helps fund some truly heroic folks! We will announce how much was raised on Monday, November 26th.
Pawnee National Park Charity Variant by Mark Englert
Fine art litho
11 x 14 inches
Hand-numbered timed edition
Edition size will be determined by the number of prints sold
through Sunday, November 25th @ 11:59PM ET
$25
100% of profits go to the Los Angeles Fire Department
Please allow 3 - 4 weeks for shipping

bottleneck gallery is doing a myster tube sale
for $85 bucks
one plastic tube with carrying rig
3 prints one to be within 5 displayed prints
https://bottleneckgallery.com/collections/homepage/products/mystery-tube-3
and they're sold out
-
I spaced and had something to do at 12, sold out by the time i got back
oh well but they did tweet they are trying to do a screening which I will most definitely do!
-
So what are the best frame deals we've found, haha. I'm hoping to get at least 75% of my collection framed by the end of the year.
Black Friday sales seems like the only way I might even come close to accomplishing that.

Are the other Star Wars prints hard to find? I feel like if I get this one I need the set.
-
I mean if you are in the right FB groups I'm sure you can dig up the variants or the timed editions. They have not gone to insane levels but now that the last variant is out the people that have the variant set I am sure will either not want to let them go individually or will want an extra amount of money for the set
-

It depends like [member=1222]mllNY[/member] said. Take a look around online and you might get lucky.

I just finally got my mystery tube from bottleneck. These were bought on the 21st of November. We were guaranteed 3 prints. one of which was a randomly chosen print from 5 choice.
Here's what I got for the $85, in addition to the plastic carrying tube. I am meh to ok. /sooooooo glad i didn't get the Nightmare print/ All and All it was a good value- especially when i factor in the tube

- James Flames "Almost Famous"
- Matt Ferguson "The Empire Strikes Back: Galaxies Collide" Timed Edition

Mark Chilcott "Batman"
Florian Bertmer "Mr Poopy Butthole"

and I think something else I can't remember off the top of my head.
None of these are must frames for me....so if anyone wants to trade stuff from their tube let me know!

pm me if you wanna do a trade for any dups you've got. i want to keep the SW Ferg & the WotW ;)

Did anyone get the Ghostbusters posters/items today? I was lucky enough to get the variant poster!
-
i didn't
i'm trying to stay away from large (24x36) prints :) my place is too tiny!
-
The KT will probably look great in person but it was an easy pass for me today. Hoping we get a Kurtz or Ansin Ghostbusters sometime soon, or if I'm dreaming big, a Stout.
It wouldn't surprise me if Mondo had a Ghostbusters gallery show this year, they seem to have got the license and likeness rights nailed down so I hope its in the works.

I might, I need to go through everything and decide what to give up. One of the prints I got in the last mystery tube was a Batman Begins regular, I already had one so I was going to give the new one to a friend as a present but them I noticed it was labeled PP ("Printer's Proof") in an edition of 8.
So the friend gets the older one :)
-
actually, this goes out to everyone- if you have prints you're not interested in keeping & might want to do a friendly trade,
I've got a couple of prints i'm not that interested in keeping
and no, i'm not taking abt trading for money. More along the lines of i've got a 'almost there' anyone interested? I like this type of art... we can bring them to SD in July-

I’ve not bought any prints yet, though many have been tempting. Just curious, how do you guys display all the prints you buy? I haven’t started yet because I simply don’t have a huge amount of wall space and unfortunately no man cave to decorate.

If you have limited wall space, you might consider a frame that you could just rotate prints from time to time. A lot of people like Spotlight Displays (http://www.spotlightdisplays.com) because they are front loading and easier to swap stuff out from time to time. You could grab a Baroque Portfolio (https://www.baroqueportfolios.com) if you want to store posters that aren't on your wall, or you could store them in a "foam core sandwich", which bit more cost effective. Just grab two large pieces of acid free foam at your local craft store, slide your posters in with some tissue or kraft paper between them, then get some big binder clips and clamp the sides together.
If you find yourself with some wall space, you can grab cheap frames from Michaels (or any other store) and use those. The Belmont frames (https://www.michaels.com/search?q=belmont") even for large poster sizes are pretty damn cheap. That being said - they don't have real glass, just a flimsy piece of plastic... which is fine for most of the stuff released these days but I still don't like them that much. You can get a new piece of glass for the Belmots, but if you are going to do all that you should just get a different frame, imo. I normally grab mid-tier poster frames (around ~$40-50) for a majority of my stuff simply because I prefer to have more art on my walls then in storage.
Of course, thats more difficult than it sounds once you start collecting, I believe I have about ~50 things framed up and still have two huge foam-core sandwiches under my bed that need to go up in frames :-X
There will be times when it'll be a good idea to invest in a custom frame - but you'll know when that time comes. Posters with foil shouldn't be touching the glass, posters with small run numbers (mainly private commissions) should be handled with more caution, special con releases, etc etc.... but more often than not for general releases; an inexpensive frame will do just fine.
At last but not least - if you don't have the wall space - start small. There are tons of artists like Mike Mitchell, Jason Edmiston, Becky Cloonan (the list goes on), and galleries (Hero Complex, G1998, etc...) that have much smaller art than traditional poster art that is just as great (if not better) than a lot of the mainstream poster releases these days.
....and don't forgot to brace yourself for poster collecting wormhole..., and your wallet. >:D

I've been doing REALLY well with my temporary moratorium on poster purchases. And then they hit me with both Samurai Jack and The Goon.
that samuriai jack is.... frame worthy
but i hear ya, my fav artist is doing a show in nyc with some special prints...I want to ask if they ship but my wallet does not want me too
-
That Samurai Jack is a beaut, but lucky for my wallet I’ve never fallen into the SJ world yet. The Goon print is very tempting though!
-
I'm surprised the Goon sold out before Samurai Jack. If anyone did pick up the Goon and is going to SDCC (and doesn't mind carrying the poster around) Eric Powell is usually pretty accessible.
-
Goon was a pretty small run though, 125 minus whatever copies they had already sold at the gallery show.

Joey Feldman is doing a show in nyc on the 26th....

Speaking of....
And it goes to 'seeing something inperson' as opposed to online,
I did end up buying a foil BttF3, pictured below simply because it is amazing in person.
I also got the foil Close encounters, the dino and a shark infographic.

jumping into this thread... I collect Mondo Art Prints also, to a fault! Seriously, is it wrong to hang art on ceilings? because I have no more room on my walls between Funko, art prints, and the other random vinyl I collect ???
I think my favorite Mondo to date is my Martin Ansin Rogue One... huge SW fan, and love the movie. The metallic ink in the print is just a gorgeous detail on top of a beautiful print. Really, can't truly appreciate the quality of Mondo prints without seeing them in person.

I don't think it's necessarily wrong to hang art on ceiling, I would just be worried about making sure that it's secure so it doesn't get damaged (or hurt anyone of course).

Heck, according to movies mirrors on ceilings was a thing in the 1970's/early-mid 1980's so I guess why not art?

I'm not a fan of a poster that big of The Creature on my wall. Dracula I can deal with especially walking around the apartment at night. XD
Funny enough, 24x36 is my favorite size. I am saving up money for the enormous Back To the Future posters from Galactic Gallery -- those are 27x41.

Ape Meets Girl is so underrated imo. I love his Pulp Fiction, been meaning to pick that up for a bit.

I've been meaning to ask since I only started collecting this year. Giclees or Screenprints? Does it matter? I like both, but from the research, it seems like Screenprints are worth more because of the process. Giclees seem to be a large high quality photograph.

There is no one right answer. You can have crappy screen prints that aren't worth the paper they are on and you can have high quality giclees that are worth hundreds of thousands. The art / artist / quality is what you need. Nice art can be done oil on canvas....it can also be made of discarded trash.

I've been meaning to ask since I only started collecting this year. Giclees or Screenprints? Does it matter? I like both, but from the research, it seems like Screenprints are worth more because of the process. Giclees seem to be a large high quality photograph.
Here's a nice write up of printing techniques and some of the various codes you might encounter.
https://hanguppictures.com/blog-post/understanding-different-print-runs-ap-pp-hc-type (https://hanguppictures.com/blog-post/understanding-different-print-runs-ap-pp-hc-type)
Places like Mondo mainly do screen printing, but you will see some giclees, usually for smaller, more photorealistic things.

Thanks for the link. I read this when I first started collecting in October and that's why I asked if screenprints are worth more because of the process. From the different artist sites like Daniel Danger, I've only seen a maximum number of 15 different colors in the screenprinting process and the videos I've seen it's much more labor intensive especially if you're layering different colors on top of each other. Also from the videos I've watched online, I haven't seen a machine do any of the layering, but I guess it could be automated as well? It seems it's normally manually done with people.
Giclees are high quality digital photos on different grade papers. These are like going to the photomat to get physical copies of your digital pictures. I only asked because if giclee's are high quality digital prints, how valuable is it if a machine is printing them like a photocopy, with only the artist proofing the colors? Theoretically you could go to an art printer and hand them the digital image and ask them to print more with their inkjet printer. I feel like the process of creating the print should be factored when deciding if they are worth more. I guess I'm trying to minimize my purchases, but also maximize my private collection in value, but I guess that is also a personal preference. What's valuable to one person's eyes may not be as valuable to another.
I have noticed that giclees are generally priced lower than screenprints, but not by much.
I really like these 2 articles https://www.southwestart.com/articles-interviews/feature-articles/top_10_myths_about_collecting_prints (https://www.southwestart.com/articles-interviews/feature-articles/top_10_myths_about_collecting_prints)

Mondo had a Struzan Dark Tower poster at SDCC that had 22 colors. It was that one year where they did pre-orders, I balked at the price and have regretted it ever since. Absolutely gorgeous poster.

I've come across two extra prints of these. anyone interested ? pm me

Theoretically you could go to an art printer and hand them the digital image and ask them to print more with their inkjet printer.
If you had access to the original file (at 300 DPI or higher), sure. Artists generally don't release full resolution files, what you'll get if you take a digital image from the internet at 72 DPI to a printer will be printed out as a big blurry mess.
I feel like the process of creating the print should be factored when deciding if they are worth more.
Giclee printing can be just as (if not) more expensive than screenprinting. Large format printers that places like Static Medium use cost upwards of 10k.
I guess I'm trying to minimize my purchases, but also maximize my private collection in value, but I guess that is also a personal preference. What's valuable to one person's eyes may not be as valuable to another.
If you want to maximize value, I'd look into buying originals. And even when you do that, its a risk because of what you mentioned. Pop culture prints generally top out at about $400 (and its rare they even make it up that high), with a handful of rarities from the past going for more. It's really tough to try to create value in franchise/licensed from Mondo/Pop Culture prints - I think you just gotta buy what you like.
Especially now, I think the market value of prints is at an all time low.
-
I think you just gotta buy what you like.
*yes*
you'll never be unhappy buying a print if you can say 'i want to frame that and stare at it on my wall for 6 months'
that's my gateway rational for buying a print.

[member=4102]rickythump[/member] Thank you to everyone who responded and provided knowledge and input. I am learning. :-) I have looked on Ebay for prints and I've seen a few that are priced at very high prices that I just cannot afford even though they are incredibly beautiful, but they mostly hover at the price mentioned, roughly up to $400. One such print is The Invisible Man by Francesco Francavilla. I think it's going for something like $500 ---he had an artist proof on his official website during his Halloween sale for roughly that same price. Maybe one of these days...
[member=4270]mark[/member] I wonder how thick the Dark Tower poster is if it had 22 layers! Does it become a 3D poster at that point?
[member=1]alyssa[/member] Everyone here is right, of the prints I have purchased so far, I haven't been unhappy regardless of what kind of print it was. It's been a long time since I've felt truly giddy with joy from NYCC, but this year coming home with all those prints has made me very happy. Until recently, I didn't realize how numb I felt, so these have sort of slapped me in the face and woken me up. LOL.
I wonder how long will it be before we see these prints on the Antique Roadshow. Haha! On with the search! :D
-
You do see vintage screen prints on antiques roadshow occasionally, mainly stuff like old concert posters.
Look at artist like James Jean / Banksy / Gondek - Their Giclees often cost $300 and up.
James Jean actually just sold this one last week:

It cost $3,000 and was limited to 50 copies.

Does Mondo have Black Friday sales every year? From the reaction on Twitter, it seems like it's quite rare. I have 1 that I really want, but these disappear in the blink of an eye, so I'm very worried. Also, I'm away from my home on Black Friday, so it's going to be extra tough trying to buy it in a Starbucks. XD

They haven't had an online Flat File sale like this for two years.
It will certainly be a tough sale to get anything - the site opens and has a ton of posters you have to flip through, and by the time you find something you were looking for it will probably be sold out, especially if you are using mobile. Might be easier to just enjoy the holiday and not add any drop-stress to your weekend ;)
-
I've never been able to grab anything in this sale, so I'll try but not get too caught up in it, (at least that's what I'm telling myself :) ) I was looking through the older posters last night, in addition to Olly Moss, I only noticed the whack pricing on some Tyler Stout posters, might be some others. Even for Moss, things like his Miyazaki movie posters seemed normal.
-
If you go to Posters > Out of Stock > Sort by Price (High to Low), some interesting stuff pops up. Lots of LD with higher price points (The Master, The Birds, etc), the Kastel Shark is 400/300, some Stouts, etc.
I imagine some grails will be priced higher than normal but the majority will be normal price.. maybe? They advertised the sale as having over 1200 prints, I can't imagine they'll go through and raise everything to market rate.
-
Oh wow, you're right. I had just gone through some artists so I could grab some urls for Friday. Some of the ones that are priced up are signed.
-
They have never marked up the price on previous flat file sales. If they do for this it would be a major shift in the sales process over ones they have done in the last 10 years. Also almost betting their contracts with most properties lock in prices .

They marked up the prices at their flat file sale at Thought Bubble a couple weeks ago.

(https://i.imgur.com/sgHmIko.jpg)
Hard to make out, but Stout GOTG was 240 eur, Stout SW 1200 eur. First time they've done it, I know. But with the prices recently raised and ThoughtBubble, I'm pretty sure we may be seeing some prices above retail.
I mean, hopefully not. The prices are still pretty low when you look at what they are currently valued at, but part of the fun of the flat file sale was getting something at cost.
-
WELP. I was hoping to pick up the Francesco Francavilla The Invisible Man, but as soon as I hit checkout, it was gone. Then I thought about Vertigo. Gone too. Then The Rocketeer. Gone. The only thing I was able to get was the Laurent Durieux Bambi poster.

I love Durieux's work. This is the first time I've had luck in this sale and I probably spent too much. I'll forgo the Grey Matter mystery tube as penance. Whalen Samurai Jack, Kilian Eng Silver Surfer, Olly Moss Die Hard, and Wm Stout Nosferatu (Key Line). Was really hoping the Struzan Gunslinger would pop up but if it did I missed it.
And yeah, it really seems like some of the really $$$ posters did go live and were purchased.

Don't get me wrong, I'm glad I got it. But it was like 5th on my list. There were other Durieux works I wanted before this. Like the Vertigo one. I don't even want the variant...just the regular with the saturated orange background. That was #2. I just can't believe people are selling the Invisible Man for $900 on Ebay.
You know what I didn't see that I thought was going to be available during the sale? Kevin Tong's Mulholland Drive. I was ogling that while browsing through their archive.
I'm going to take the money I couldn't spend at Mondo over to Josh Budich's store - he's got free shipping as part of his Black Friday deal. Anyone seen any good Black Friday deals?

Nothing on my list that I had bookmarked popped up... so I just loaded up on [too many] Mitchell portraits :-\

Oh man, I almost got into collecting Folio Society books. My husband just shook his head no...like don't do it! LOL - we are both big readers and I think we've both agreed that we'd only buy if they were at a good price and if they were deemed staples and must-haves in any library. But we do have an Alice in Wonderland from Folio Society and a copy of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn from First Edition Library. I believe a few years ago I bought a Heritage Society Frankenstein. At the time I was determined to have a collection of classics all in slip covers.

Hero Complex has a "spooky" collection up. Some good stuff, including a few APs. HC is always nice since they don't sell out fast if at all, you can actually think about it before you buy it.

If anyone missed out on Rory Krutz's Mondo Mandalorian prints he is selling APs on his site 12/18 at 12pm Central. Not cheap, $200 for the regular and $300 for the variant, but they are signed.

LOVE that icon poster! The story, from what I recall, is that the studio never shared him any footage or stills or anything from the film, and he had an incredibly short turn-around time in which to complete the poster. So he kind of pulled this visual idea out of thin air (likely inspired by the title treatment?), rushed it, and submitted it. The rest is history; and oddly the original art was up for sale for a looooooong time without selling. I think the original art has finally been sold, given it's not for sail on his website.

I'll likely be picking up something for him at some point ;)
the post office.... is being a pita. i was suppose to have a print delivered yesterday. it couldn't be delivered because of no access. We do not have a gate in my complex. :blank: ::)

Maybe, maybe not. Obvs it's too early to tell at this time, but Mondo's co-founder is feeling good about their autonomy: https://twitter.com/mitchputnam/status/1536381468045451264?s=20&t=C38Lce8WxZRDgnsKDHKapQ (https://twitter.com/mitchputnam/status/1536381468045451264?s=20&t=C38Lce8WxZRDgnsKDHKapQ)
I'll use this example: when Disney was looking to purchase Marvel, there were A LOT of concerns, particularly from Marvel Studios who was still building their brand/company. There were _many_ meeting with the Disney and Marvel higher-ups, with Disney essentially telling them "we'll put our distributing & marketing juggernaut to work for you, and you keep doing your thing with incredibly minimal parameters." At this point, over a decade later, I think things have worked out well for all involved.
We have little/no info of the details of this new partnership, and all we have to go on currently are the words of co-founder who seems excited (and expresses that nearly everyone from Mondo is staying on board). I suspect Funko is a FAR more financially stable entity than Alamo Drafthouse, and this will hopefully be a better situation for Mondo. Heck, maybe with deeper pockets there will be deeper runs of products and MORE people can be happy here!
Only time will tell...
-

deeper runs, if you mean larger print runs, is definitely not what the average Mondo collector wants. Even if you mean like deeper as in like more obscure stuff or larger output that still is a bit opposite of what most print collectors would want. Like a zillion Pops! just like over producing.
-
LE poster runs of 5,000!
at that point I stop buying Mondo- that's an insane number of prints

it's not unpopular on the Poster thread LOL
but
i'm right there with you
I'm not going to deal with the funko folk just to get the print i want. I'll go after market before i'll fight funko fanatics
-
And *every* poster Mondo put out will now come in a "Funko Pop!" version...immediate success!! :D

People's reaction to this is ridiculous.
It's a great thing for Mondo and I can't wait to see all the new possibilities that happen due to it.

Just so disheartening and sad. I can't say enough about how emotional I am over this. I have a closet full of tubes from over the years. I may have had my issues with some of the way they did things but they always put out absolute fire posters.
There's not a sad crying face emoji big enough for what I'm feeling right now.
-
Wow...I wonder if they'd try to spin what they did back up as a different brand...they're no longer beholden to Funko, so may be possible?
Or does this mean that maybe the poster stuff will all just come under the Funko name?
