It's odd that framers would do that without asking, at Hobby Lobby they make you fill out a form with the value of the piece. I wrote down "1 Million Dollars" just to be a goof.

I know when people hear the word "wet" they would think of water, etc or the print being submerged, but its more of a dry spray (kind of like hair spray in some ways) that I remember and they coat the foam board with it and it bonds with the print. Basically I stay far away from the stuff....

FRAME OFF! Let's do it. Ha! Honestly I'll only be buying it for a shot at the golden ticket. If I don't win I hope it's one of you guys.

It'd be great if someone won the golden ticket and commissioned Moss to create a one of a kind poster for like Delta Farce or Joe Dirt or something awful.

Battlefield Earth.

If I were to go by actor it would Johnny Depp, not sure which movie I'd pick though, if I were to choose movie... man, I don't know where I'd start. Moss' stuff is pretty unique so I'd want to pick one that I think suits his style, his Star Wars prints are just so amazing. Could you imagine a one of a kind Olly Moss hanging on your wall??? How cool would that be!

[househead]

Olly Moss Halloween. Then have Jamie Lee Curtis sign it in November at her one time only convention appearance. I would do horrible, despicable things for that golden ticket. LOL

A movie choice would be so tough! Indiana Jones or something to do with the Matrix maybe?

I would probably go with a video game related poster if I were to get that ticket

His Zelda and Bowzer prints are amazing. I would love to snag those someday

I received the STNG Fathom event poster today. It's a mat finish double sided 27x40. I immediately put it in a light box. It's absolutely amazing looking in person. The blue light on the enterprise really stands out against the red background. Below is a link to the full image. Most I've seen have been cropped.

I'm going to pull the trigger on the Olly Moss Dark Knight Rises print! I'm so excited! I'm super excited about getting a mondo print period! lol I have to be at work @ 6:00 am so I'm about to go to bed but I have an alarm set for 12:00 am so I can get my order in!!

Oh and my guess for final print count is 3,825.

It will be nice to just get up in the morning and log on and click "Buy" and be done with it. Unlike so many other drops where you've got 0 chance. I'm starting to just look into other poster blogs and find cool stuff by artists I like anymore.

I'm in on the Moss TDKR. I've had it as my iPhone wallpaper and it's growing on me. I'm tempted to check the mondo site at midnight just to see if its swamped or not.

Yes, he claims to have done so, it's only fitting he repair it when it's down.

They must mean it goes on sale at 12am central time or 12am pacific time because it's technically past 12am eastern time and it hasn't gone on sale. More than likely it's 12am pacific time.

I agree and honestly, what I ranted about before, I would not be surprised if one day they decide to make all standard editions a timed release and variants a random drop. They have gotten so big, its really the only way to appease everyone and still keep some value for them later on down the road it people decide to sell them. A timed release wouldn't always be 24 hours, they could shake it up a bit, have 12 hour timed releases, 3 hour ones, 1 hour ones, etc. Of course this is all MY opinion on what I would do, this isn't anything official, etc.

For some reason your link doesn't work, it just takes me to the Google search. Perhaps take a photo of yours and post it here instead. Glad you were able to get it, see I told you would. Now you just need some signatures on it to make it even more special.

I'd probably have him do something either for Shawshank Redemption, Field of Dreams, or Goodfellas, or even possibly Dances With Wolves with the focal point being Dunbar's journal.

It's up for ordering folks!

Yep it is 12am CT, which is the exact time for me now.

Get on it before they sell out! It's live..HURRY! You only have 23 hours and 58 minutes! I just placed my order.

In all seriousness I am hoping they ship in order of when people placed their orders, which is why I opted to order as soon as they went on sale.

[Genesisfury]

Already placed the order. Got in so quick I would have gotten it even if it was a limited run like usual.

I have a feeling if it was limited there would have been a lot more people vying for it. Site wasn't slow at all, which is probably because most people are waiting until "tomorrow" technically since it actually went on sale today for us west coast people.
