Holy fuck. Best ever?
I'd say so

I honestly think it may well be. Even though I love Moss' stuff -- there's no way he'll be knocked off his perch as top artist for me -- as a huge GOT fan, this is just the pinnacle. It's so perfectly suited for the GID.. everything about it is perfect.
I must have it. Must!
What day do these prints go on sale?
Are the superhero ones and blackwter battle the same day?
According to the post it's 4-9 for the two prints above probably not involved with the upcoming show.
So the other ones will all be day of show then?
Bottleneck will post prints that are left over from the show opening(Friday) Saturday at noon if that's what your asking? Unless your going then of course you can probably have the pick of the litter.
I meant online and your reply answered my question. Thanks bro
Whats shakin. The batman/ spiderman prints should be dropping tomorrow around noon, its part of a noir series with superman and thor dropping next. The Mark Englert piece, along with the rest of the prints from the GID show will be released during a preview sale Thursday night at 8pm Est. We only put a small amount of each run up for the preview sale, then the show happens Friday, and any remaining prints will go up Saturday around noon Est. Hope i was helpful

Love both the Batman and Spiderman prints. Thanks for the heads up on the Englert piece.. I will try my darndest to get it. Should I sign up for an account with a particular website to make the process smoother? Do you guys use that bigcartel? I can't recall from the last preview sale.

Giclee print on fine art paper
13 x 19 inches
Numbered edition of 35
The Taxi Driver print was originally going to be part of a Mystery Movie in NYC, but that changed after construction was pushed back.
Aarrgh.
Well we've had Zelda, Fire Emblem, Pikmin and Metroid... plus there was some additional Zelda and Xenoblade that were kind of related. If I have to narrow it down to 3, I could see it being from one of the following:
1. Donkey Kong
2. Mario (I could see a Super Mario Galaxy-themed print being awesome)
3. Smash Bros
Collider interview with Justin Ishmael of Mondo: http://collider.com/mondo-justin-ishmael-dark-tower-drew-struzan-interview/
Looks like they're aiming for Struzan The Dark Tower and Moss Spirited away at comi-con.
I'm super bummed out about the Spirited Away being at Comic Con, I hope they get in because it's good for them but would prefer to get a crack at a online drop before I pay 4x the amount in the after market. But it's one I have to own so will pay what I have to, better start saving now. Great interview though!

Yeah, they fucked us with Mononoke as well.. pretty uncool frankly. Still sad I missed out on getting a Mononoke by 1 person at a flat file sale here in town.. was one of the worst moments I've had in a long time.
Mononoke's price has stayed pretty low, though, especially compared to other Moss prints. Totoro reg has jumped up to like $430 for its 6-month average, while Mononoke is only $200.
I paid $800 for a Totoro Variant, and that one was an online exclusive. I paid $200 for Mononoke direct from Olly. Can't say that I'm complaining about Spirited Away being at SDCC. Most of the people buying them will be looking to sell them. Better than it going to people who want them, thus driving the price up.

Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan...
Seriously, fuck this bullshit with the Ghibli series. I realize that Mondo doesn't owe it's customers anything, really, but to start a series online and then make the rest of it event exclusive just kind of sucks.
Hopefully lightning strikes twice and I'm able to pick one up when Moss sells his but damn this really pisses me off.
*shrug* - at least the rarest and most valuable one was online.
Mononoke wasn't even that big a deal to get (and still isn't), if you really want it.
The upside to things like SDCC or the Taylor/Stout show is lots of it hits the secondary market
I understand what you're saying but if you think this one, for arguably their most well known film, is going to be cheap I think you're fooling yourself. I mean I could be wrong (I often am) but I just don't see it.
yeah, but it'll also have the highest run, you don't know how good the image will be (Totoro is probably a Top 3 Moss poster), and it's just tough to say.
That said, I'd guess if you have 300 bucks handy after the drop, you won't have trouble scoring one. Or just hold onto tradebait you CAN get online (ie, Reservoir Dogs, Django, etc)
If only I had had the foresight I would have been Stoutpiling this entire time. DAMN IT!

Don't see how it's different from web releases and how large chunk ends up on secondary markets

Did you pick yours up locally or have they finally started shipping? Been anxious for mine.
From the AP sale on P&T on Monday. Already received. I guess it didn't really have to go very far...
