Did anyone pickup any of the Holiday stuff from MoMA? I had the companion in my cart but wasn't fast enough.

Was gonna pick the companion as well, but passed due to the fact that figure can’t stand up, instead meant to display laying down. Also the plushes are cheaper elsewhere.

First "accessible" print in a while. At least, releases that have hit my inbox...not feeling these at all.

The fact these cost more than a LF fairey hpm is definitely a turnoff. I entered but not sure if I could actually pull the trigger on a 9k screenprint

I assumed the application was enough, but no. I was contacted later in the day, and while the zoom interview was fine, the follow up in person interview process is brutal. In the dead of night they pick you up in a black, windowless van. After driving for an hour, they open the door to an open field. They strip you down to your underwear, throw eggs at your naked body while asking obscure trivia questions about late nineties cartoons. Unfortunately I wasn’t deemed worthy enough to purchase. Maybe next time.
