Awesome night Mondo! Thanks for putting out a shitload of awesome prints and making the Oscars a ton of fun. Don't listen to all the whiners who want a change in the check out system.

I came away with Kelly's Django, Moss' Les Mis and both the reg and variant of Whalen's Wreck It Ralph.

Pretty proud of this prediction:

Think Kelly's Django variant and Moss' Les Mis were the prints of the night.

Definitely agree with those who say Kelly's Django is better than Stout's. Sorry Tyler, not your best work.

Sad I missed ZDT reg. Hit me up if you have buyer's remorse. Happy to trade either the reg + some cash or variant WIR for it.

Love the Brave print, but don't think I'd ever hang it.

Congrats to all who scored what they wanted and condolences to those ho missed.

I managed:

Stout Reg
Master
Argo
Kelly Reg

Amazing how insane the site is getting. I was all over this and the one I was really interested (Moss - Les Mis) vanished before I even got to shipping. Weird how the rush works out sometimes. At least Olly usually has a ream of APs (even though I still haven't got my last order from him).

The only thing that can get worse than this is Drive being released on thursday and the edition sizes are smaller.

I would feel horrible for everybody who miss both.

Apologies if everyone looking for The Master is already aware of it, but Durieux's APs go on sale tomorrow, Monday, at 3pm EST on his site:

http://www.retropolis.bigcartel.com/pro ... -master-ap

Very pricey because it's in euros, he's signing and stamping it, etc. But it's there.

If it were 16 x 24 I would.

I don't understand Mondo's obsession with making everything 24 x 36. drymounting HUGE. Saw Jay Ryan's Moonlight Kingdom at a decent size and I was like YEAH

C'mon, mondo, 16x24 or 18x24 is plenty big. I'd even hang a goddamn smaller Whalen Wreck-It Ralph-- but not a 24x36 version, man. Just too big.

There's going to be another Drive print?

Is there an image of it yet or any idea who is doing it?

That was a pretty awesome night. Completely failed on the Stouts, now my wife knows how stressful mondo drops are.

I kind of love this - seeing how the sausage is made: http://instagram.com/p/WI2s4DRGBN/

Even though I missed the Stout, I still had a good time with all of tonight's drops!
