Wow... Asshole move, sideshow. Why not just start selling exclusive switch out parts separately?

Was the print the exclusive? I thought it was the switch out head.

It was both. Pass.

However, if they made an Emma frost AH print, I would buy it.

Is this the first time they've reprinted what was an exclusive at one point?

That's right, I knew there were some other ones I was forgetting.

Its actually a smart idea to produce new editions from the smaller prints they used to use as EX's, at least from a business perspective. Its artwork already produced so wether they already own the rights or had to buy the rights to do a 2nd edition, its a lot cheaper than having new artwork made. So their profit margins will be higher on these than their other prints.

Not to mention, from what I saw on various forums, most people really hated the whole print as an EX idea, hence didn't really care much for the prints anyways. So its not like a bunch of people are going to get pissed that new editions for those prints are going to devalue the prints they already own and really didn't respect much in the first place. Sure, there might be a small number of people that really liked the prints, but even in those cases, its possible those collectors would be interested in buying a much higher quality version of the print.

In the end, its really a win win scenario for Sideshow with the absolute worst case scenario being just a small handful of collectors getting upset over the whole matter. Given the money Sideshow is making on each of these prints....well, they will take that trade off any day of the week.
