No, which is why it seems weird.

Release a handful of prints = "Quantity over quality, amirite? Oof"

Release a handful of prints, vinyl, books, tikis, status, pins, etc. = "Not enough output. Mondo is over."

Same output it's always been - something dropping every week. Love it or hate it, #sameasiteverwas

That said, there's SDCC stuff incoming.

It’s not the same output as it’s always been. Are you serious? There was a point a few years ago they were releasing 4-6 prints a week, compared to now where it’s possibly two a week. I love the Talking Heads as much as everyone else, but it’s not same as it ever was.

that emovieposter site is so bad.
Its the OG poster auction site, and the first one done very well. Bruce is the PT Barnum of poster collecting, but he is good at what he does, and has staff that is second to none. I would also put their packaging and turn around time on items sold as the best there is. When Bruce/EMP decide to hang em up for good, it will be a huge loss for the collectors community.
well if they are the best of the best they should have a better site.

and like...there are tons of facebook groups of poster collectors selling at way cheaper prices. and ebay for all your posters needs.

it was kinda laughable having that mondo auction on that site. and having it crash as auctions were ending, then extending the time and asking people 'dont use the site unless you really intend to buy something'

i guess the question is, why do you need them to release 4-6 prints a week?

i mean you wanna talk about 'same as it ever was' people keep coming in here and complaining that 'mondo hasn't been good for a while' is way more old hat .

Pretty sure my buddy and I fully funded pinpinz.

This was at peak mondo marvel pins though, getting $150 for spiderman and daredevil. I wanted to build a pin reselling empire.

Are pins not flipping anymore? Just when I was able to score one of those fist sized Slater jawns.
