Oh hell yeah I hope its a timed edition!

He did indeed. Another one I can't grab due to not having any cash. It really is a rich man's hobby.
Looks like Hannibal wasn't limited. LitA has some - http://lightintheattic.net/releases/1799-hannibal-original-television-soundtrack-music
Black vinyl though, if that matters to anyone.

DUMP THE STOUTS!
Some crazy-ass news.
Considering his girlfriend and COO, Jessica also appears to no longer be a part of Mondo, I'm assuming this wasn't a mutual thing.
It will be interesting to see how this develops.
Not to be a negative nancy, but Mondo's been on a decline for a while imo. The only way this move makes them worse is if they continue to follow this weird super-commercialization they've been doing with all their old artwork. I think a lot of the direction mondo has been headed in has been Justin's doing, and I don't know that Justin really has his market in mind, so much as shit he finds cool in his mind. People were joking a lot about it, but honestly, I think a wrestling match at mondocon 2 was actually being pursued by Justin, and I wouldn't be surprised if him having an argument about it lead to his departure, lol.
Edit:
"I think a lot of the direction mondo has been headed in has been Justin's doing, and I don't know that Justin really has his market in mind, so much as shit he finds cool in his mind"
A good example of this is how their official mondo twitter, mondonews, was justin's personal twitter, where he would ignore almost every question directed to it, and sometimes post random shit/questions from. They've changed ownership of that handle, and starting at June 5th, you can already see that handle interacting more.
Anyways. This move is certainly interesting.

Wrestling is part of the con, yeah.

The decline is arguable, (although I'd mostly agree on that) but I think it has less to do with quality and more to do with how it's been expanding. Entering the figure market was an odd move, and then focusing on mostly Turtle figures? It's not like there's a void of TMNT figs that need to be filled. Mondo-Con was cool, but that's got be a logistical nightmare compared to just doing a convention circuit. And of course adding wrestling to the next one.

Man, I'm not familiar with all this in and out stuff but I need that BTTF Whalen to live.
I'm also drowning in work meetings tomorrow. Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck

Certainly no decline in the amount of money they are getting, I agree. I meant more on a quality, and "making the right moves" front.
I think they could be doing a lot better job trying to obtain new properties, and securing the right kind of rights.
If you are going to do toys, there is a happy middle ground to affordable and "best". The turtles was an interesting idea, and so was the giant (although way too pricey or big). There is certainly a lot they can do with toys, and I'm interested to see how that goes.
As any business they are trying to diversify into other natural avenues of collecting film products. So merch tie ins etc its smart business as long as you don't take away from your bread and butter. Also there are only so many posters artists can pump out before the same group gets tired of buying the same stuff over and over. Alien, Batman, Iron Giant, Robocop, Back to the Future have all be beat to death. They had some fresh gallery shows this year but a lot of OG's etc. IDK I think I've bought 1 poster from Mondo in the last year online and 2 at Mondocon. I've bought more from Bottleneck and HCG for sure. Maybe the transition will be good for them we will see.

Whalens be up.
Edit: Nevermind. I think they just popped up for a sec.

Justin didn't train his replacement on the drop button, I guess.

Pretty sure we're never gonna see a Batman Zur En Arrh print again.
Good thing it's amazing.

Not super duper shocked about the Justin thing. He's kind of larger than life so it was probably only a matter of time as the company grew. Tim League is kinda similar in being a big persona, but he's more grounded and it's his company so he can get away with it.
As far as Mondo goes, they've hit a bit of a lull. I haven't felt terribly inclined to buy much in some time and I was really disappointed by how MondoCon was run last year. Hopefully for everyone who can make it, it's done better this year. I think they've been hurt from no Olly Moss releases in a long time. Really excited to see if he releases anything at the Con.. 5x5's have lost a little bit of their luster in comparison to full releases.

That TAS poster is real nice.

I wonder how much of a time commitment Firewatch has been for him?
It's a full time gig so probably substantial. That has been the impetus for lack of releases (sans the Firewatch and 5x5s) I believe. I suppose there could be some contractual limitations as well but I doubt it.
I'm the opposite, I'd love more
I think for me the problem is actually doing stuff with them. That's a lot of individual frames or a lot of work from a framer to make them look good together in one big piece. I have so many just sitting under my bed, lol.

You're selling Guybrush/LeChuck? Man, I'd have to think about that.
Don't sell your Moss Star Wars stuff; that's future regret waiting to happen.

God damn.
Wasn't one of these going to be open to the everyone, or was I imagining that?

Oh wow, that's you over there? I had PM'd you regarding one of your posters, haha.
Mannnnn so many prints I want to buy . . .
I'm new to the whole print collecting thing, but over the last several weeks I managed to snag a Tomorrowland variant, the Batman Zur En Arrh, and a Godzilla print from Mondo. I tend to collect Lego, and it's hard to manage multiple expensive hobbies - but I can't wait to have some stuff framed in my building room.
Also - I must find the Boneface Mad Max poster on the aftermarket. That thing sold out in seconds.

I collect both prints and Lego too and my one piece of advice would be to be picky with what you buy. I spent way too much when I first started collecting but I've become more selective and it's much more manageable now.
Yeah. I'm trying to cut back on my Lego stuff since I have so much now, but being new to prints I feel like I need to start buying what I can and then use as a base to find/trade for stuff later. I travel a shit load for work and can't wait by the computer when something gets released; so I'm finding recent releases will be ones I have buy from a reseller.
