I can't remember off the top of my head. Someone had posted on Instagram that they talked to someone at Mondo, and the Mondo employee said the regulars would be an open edition. That's why I wanted to post it here - to see if anyone can back that up.

Oh well - I guess we'll learn soon enough if it is or isn't. Fingers crossed though.

This. Plus the octopus is referenced in the Cyndi Lauper music video and other Goonies tie-ins from the time so most kids who saw the movie when it first came out would recognize it....

I'm glad the octopus is so prominent on the print - adds the the feeling that there was more to the adventure than what was on screen. I remember seeing or hearing about the octopus stuff back then, probably from kids that had these cards.

Ha, is that the sound of flippers screaming or am I just imagining things...? :P

I doubt it if only because Tyler says he's got some regs that he'll sell at some point, which would be amusing to see happen if the poster's still available somewhere else...that and I'd worry for the sanity of D&L's employees. :P

That's what it should be - this is a 30 year old movie with a couple generations of fans, lot of people would want this thing

Go to Spencer's. Is that still a store? Hot Topic? Wherever the kids buy their posters these days.

It's a screenprint - making this an open edition of thousands isn't a matter of rarity (though that's something I know some folks value), it's also a matter of practicality. Anybody with a Moss TDKR timed edition can speak for how it's not easy to keep a handle on QC for print runs hitting the 9000s...

If you can't secure a run of 700+ for a decent price outside the main drop you suck at this hobby.

Did it really hit above 9000? Didn't think that movie was that popular. The Mad Max this summer was what 2750 or so? Either way, just an unsubstantiated rumor at this point

You're not ruining anything for me. Just saying why it won't happen. That plus the already-mentioned QC issues. But #dreambig.

Included a golden ticket (aka Moss does art for you of whatever you want). And yeah, hit over 9000.

The point isn't that it's not a nice thought, it's that the specific medium - screenprinting - is really built as a finite one. Reburned screens, remixing inks, it's not like doing a ton of lithos or giclees. Daniel Danger's one of the few guys who does open editions of stuff and he has to get those done in batches because they can't just print to order, and Stout would probably clock in pretty high on name alone. Even if they could get the sign off to do it (which I'd doubt because licensing is generally not friendly to this hobby), locking down a place like D&L to make them on command is not realistic since that'd screw D&L up with the rest of the stuff they have to print, and outsourcing that would be a whole other set of problems.

Not trying to be a buzzkill, there's just a reason why it's really, really hard to believe that rumor.

Nah no buzzkill. Interesting stuff, didn't know screenprinting was that time intensive, but now that I think about it, looking at the stuff I have, it would make sense. Seems like Mondo regularly uses D&L, they ever use others?

They do, but some artists like working with certain printers - Horkey uses Burlesque and Ben LaFond there KILLS it on his work. Heck their instagram was all about overnighting the work they had to do to get Inclusion done. :P It's just a risk because it's doing the same art in different batches - they had Durieux's BTTF1 print done at a different place than 2 for his show in 2013, and while they did a fine job (I mean lord knows I like the print), it also ended up being a half inch larger than the others and 25 had a metallic ink misprint. :P
