SS Silver Foil

Anyone see these new Silver Foil Artwork.

They're pretty cool looking, only issues I kind of have are they're a bit small about the size of a standard comic book, they should of been at least 11x18, would of been perfect IMO...

The other issue is the edition size, 10,000... seems excessive for a "collectable"..., not sure how many they will sell at $130 a pop

So far looks like they have Star Wars, Wrath of Khan and 1st appearance of Superman.

Overpriced. Reminds me of the Sorayama Foil cover art book.

Lol...idk. I'd purchase one for fifty to eighty USD, but 130 is a bit off. In that regard, I'd agree.

I got my first framed print from them this week and there's no way in hell it was worth the 350. But, live and learn. I'll hang it on my wall next to a painting of me being mugged. It'll be a nice reminder

These have been out awhile from NZ Mint. It’s really nice in person. There is more in the series at the mint.

I prefer the poster coins.

Yeah I went over to NZ Mint web page and they have several others like Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi... plus the first comic of Batman.

I would been more likely to buy them for $130 if they were 11x18 instead of 8 1/2 x 11

I felt the same way when I bought my first framed print from Sideshow. The materials were so cheap that I haven't bought one framed again. I'd rather spend the same money or a little more and get a quality frame with glass instead of acrylic.
