This on site poster drop was a lot of fun. We started joking our fingers were getting itcy prior to the posters going on sale and we weren't sure what to do with no F5 button around. There was maybe 20 people around the booth when I rolled up at 11, but it was probably around 70 by the time Tan showed up and they went on sale. My buddy was running late and got his about 40 minutes later and he said his number was 89 or something close to that. Jessica was having a few problems with the iPhone cc scanner, so cash makes it go quicker. Glad to talk to Swabie and another EB'r whose name I didn't get. I would highly doubt they'd do any online drops this week as Justin, Jessica and Rob were working their tails off so far.

Onward to the next drop!

adamsmasher, what about a hint? Or even just letting us know if what's coming up is coming up today, tomorrow or Saturday? I need to know if my plans should be canceled this afternoon/tomorrow/Saturday. :hanging:

It just makes logical sense that Stout would also get an online release. With Moss/Tan each getting relatively smaller editions (375 and 220) and Stout getting 650 edition regular plus 220 edition variant for a total of 870 prints, an online sale just... makes sense. :roll:
That said, I'd love to get my hands on the Moss set as he's my favorite designer.

Looks like I'm in search of the Tans, if there are any extras out there--but I have to give a huge thanks to my poster buddy for trying so hard to get me a set!!

Godspeed to Justin, Jessica and Rob as they are in for a hell of a next couple of days, but as stated before, Mo is still here in Austin (I saw him last night at the AICN Cap screening) and he is more than capable of handling an online drop. Especially since they don't pack/ship immediately but would likely do that stuff in the next week or two once the rest of the crew are already back. But really, we're just holding on to any shred of hope.

This week should be fun, both for attendees and the message boards. Lots of complete surprises coming.

So are the Tan's now sold out at the booth? The more I look at them, the more I wish I had a buddy to score a set for me. Especially since reading earlier that the lines were done and there were still a few sets and no "Tan Captain America set SOLD OUT!" tweets yet.

Gotta give it to Mondo. They know how to build hype over ink on paper.
