Folks, what were your top 5 posters of 2012? Could be anything: One sheets, Mondo, Customs, etc.

For me it goes...

1. Ken Taylor "Halloween" from Mondo
2. Haywire movie poster by Kellerhouse, Inc
3. Phantom City Creative "Cabin in the woods" from Mondo
4. The Dark Knight Rises Poster #2 (with bane walking away)
5. Laurent Durieux "The Iron Giant" from Mondo

An honorable mention would be that Daniel Danger "Psycho" variant poster by Mondo which was very strong I thought.

I think Technique needs to haul butt up to Calgary at their Fan Expo in late April and have it signed by the master himself John Carpenter.

Major score, now you need to go and get that thing signed and then get it framed! Just don't drymount it!

My top 5 of 2012 in no particular order:
1) Rainbow Inc. - Roamcouch
2) To Harrow a Naif - Aaron Horkey
3) Lord of the Rings - Olly Moss
4) Avengers/Reservoir Dogs - Tyler Stout
5) 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea - Ken Taylor

I recently found out about that Rainbow Inc piece, and will be added to my collection sometime this year

Also, If anyone happen to receive any of the 3 Drive Stout stickers in their Mondo tubes and doesn't want them. I'd be happy to take them off your hands

There's a Hammer, Scorpion, and Mustang as far as I know. I've decided to cover my flat-file in stickers rather than sand it down and stain it again.

You got lazy did you?


1. Ken Taylor's 20,000 Leagues, missed out on this one, one day I'll get one at a fair price
2. I'm giving KT the node again but this time it's the giclee that came with Tarantino XX, love that thing!
3. This is my farm and i'll die here by Mark Englert, killer print
4. Looper by Martin Ansin, really like the movie and the print, unfortunately I had to part with mine
5. It may not be a movie poster, but I've got to give a nod to the Soto/Stout Pearl Jam poster, love that thing, also missed out on that one

I guess I shouldn't say it's a for sure. Though I do want those stickers so fire them my way
I might take a stab at it. I already have the stain and enough sand paper kicking around to do it. Hopefully in the summer I'll have the motivation to pull all my posters and do it. I would like to get some of those mylar bags before that happens to avoid man handling them

+1 on that 20k leagues. Reg or Variant I definitely need one in the collection as well.

The Rainbow Inc came in 2 different styles. Mono and Sepia. Undecided on which one I want. Here's a few spoiler photos.

I just recently picked up a regular off ebay so I'd love to have him sign it but not sure about his charge for signatures. I was hoping someone could clue me in to his prices at conventions for his sig. Most of the walking dead cast is going to be there so hopefully I can get them to sign my mark englert this is my farm print.

Alright folks, here's your first preview of the poster for my next event. This literally makes up about 1% of the image (as to not give anything away yet)... they will be 6 color screenprints, 24x36", and have been approved by the studio...

More details to come soon, just wanted to share! I'm not going to link to the event or anything along those lines as it's frowned upon... but can't wait to show more details and share the poster with everyone!

I think was 30 or $40 in 2011. Just make sure you tell him where to sign it if it matters. The englert will be sweet! Lots of space around the characters. Looking forward to seeing both.

Which studio?

I will say the rights are held by a company that most of you would've never heard of (including myself, initially).

So, we're not taking MGM, Universal, or any of the heavy-hitters.

Anyone else get their Taylor JP in yet? Mine arrived Saturday and I really love it. The only thing I've noticed is that on the open sky part there is a black dot, and lots of small patches of white showing through. You only see them up close, from medium to long distance its fine. Not sure if this just part of the screen printing process or if it's something worth asking about? Thoughts?

Mine (Allforce's) hasn't made it across the boarder yet, I'll check it out when it does and report back.

My 'What's Opera Doc?' had a similar issue. What # is your print? Seems the higher the number the more likely there are 'errors' in the screen print. From what I've heard after x amounts of prints the screen will start to clog, blocking ink in some spots from making contact to the paper.

[grooveska]

mine was #369, so a pretty high number. I like I said it's only noticeable really up close, so I may just roll with it. I'll try to post some pictures later tonight.

Did you keep your What's Opera Doc?

I've heard of this happening as the screen breaks down from repeated use... especially on some of these prints that have huge editions.

Although, numbering doesn't always occur in order with when they are printed, so it doesn't always occur with the higher numbered prints.

Calling a print "top of the stack" aka, lower numbered, is sort of a running gag in screenprinted circles. Some people swear they are in better condition, some people swear those people are crazy.
