Blame the Cubs.

They've won just as many World Series titles in the last 100 years as the Rangers and Astros have combined (0).

LORD OF THE RINGS RETURN OF THE KING

Gold/Amber vinyl has to be JP. I believe it was posted with the caption "we uh..uh..found a way" or something similar.

And....?

The sinking of the Titanic is a more recent event than the Cubs winning a title.

too blatant IMO Finding a way could be referencing the likeness rights.

I'm sure Horkey and Moss will knock it out of the park but my sleeper pick is JC Richard. I bet he slays it

My guess is the Oscar score is in reference to Gravity. Death Waltz was supposed to release it sometime last year. It's possible both parties are releasing it as some sort of regional license, a la Maniac, and wanted to wait til after the awards.

Not backouted...art rejected:
Landland, Methane, Danger, Hero Design League and Jay Ryan.... Olly Moss was added with Jungle book

Add Todd Slater to the list...

I think alot of people are expecting LOTR and TWBB level Horkey. They are going to be disappointed when it is more of a GOT/Canus level Horkey.

Best of luck and I hope it is something really kick ass for all the people that have to wait for hours just to get what you want. Just don't get your hopes up when it's clear that Disney has been micromanaging artists so much so that several have already had to drop out of the show...

What s wrong with Canus...

I forgot, you need everything spelled out for you. Texas professional baseball is just as futile as The Cubs.

I've thought this for a little while now.

Don't care about Texas baseball. The whole point/joke is about Chicago. Hence, Cubs.

Hang in there, Cubbies fan.

Absolutely nothing, it just wasn't the "ZOMG GREATEST POSTER EVER" that TWBB and LotR gets. Plus if you are in it for the flip, it is still going for a little more than it originally sold for.
