The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

Wish they offer framing option on this. Would be nice to display both side by side with the original 1

$90 USD for a print with a fake signature?

Easy pass.

And a 550 total ES for each print now.

Sideshow must be located on a dairy farm because they sure know how to milk it.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

looks like i am wrong. you can flip anything now days i guess if you put a limited edition on it.

anyone wanna buy my limited edition sock? only one in the world and it has realistic weathering and smell!
supply and demand. If people want something and its sold out the prices go up. contrary to the complaining we see on statueforum many people could care less about authorized sig/ real sig / no sig. most people buy prints because they like the art.

for purchasing directly from sideshow it would only matter if you think the initial cost point is relative to the signature which is certainly up to the buyer. If it comes down to the signature for people they clearly didn't like the art enough in the first place.

I've collected art prints (outside of sideshow's) for years now and many don't come signed. honestly if someone happened to get it signed it doesn't matter a lot anyway for value. Maybe if its super rare to find the artist and they rarely sign would it make any difference for prints.


btw the poison ivy variant prints also have a different background more like the statue

They reserve a number of them for pickup at the convention. You could find someone that is going and get them to pickup and ship for you.

I never really understood the print thing, especially with nothing to make it even slightly unique like a signature. I would just buy a large format printer and go to town with it. It amounts to the same thing.

I've missed out on Poison Ivy it's annoying because this is one I truly wanted but sadly not all 300 will be shipped because it being a comic con exclusive

I will wait for another one that I want but Poison Ivy was my favourite

I would assume with shipped option you could do framed versions, they show framed versions in the images
When I placed my order to be shipped, there was NO framed option. Oh well.. gonna have to hunt for a frame now then

I'm sure Sideshow will send out emails offering frame upgrades to everyone who ordered the prints.

I really hate it when they do exclusive BS with items. It's pretty hard to even get comic con tickets anymore, not to mention if you don't live in southern California it's quit a drive.

There might be a chance they don't sell out at the convention allowing regular customers to purchase them. A better exclusive would of been real signatures on the prints
