So another cool thing just for the subscribers?

^pretty much.

It's still happening, there will be a very small amount , first refusal to sub holders .

Very small amount. Any non-sub holders are just better off forgetting it even exists, like Tallow.

That's what is frustrating about following Horkey's work. He creates so many incredible things that are completely unobtainable for "normal" fans.

He really hasnt done many crazy limited things lately to be honest here. The True Grit wood had Mondo and Osprey editions. Tallow was a special circumstance for those in the "sub". The Naif wood is really the only other one that could come to mind on this. But even still, there is a regular image on paper which ROCKS. Looking back on his older prints, he used to do WAY more super limited variants. Look at WBG and OTA, some of my favorite color choices for those prints are crazy variants that I know I will never own. Just the way it goes:

It's not like this is new news that it is a tiny edition. This post is from I think April 2013. No one knows how Aaron will sell them, but people that are like ZOMG why so few, this ain't new news. There is always the next print, this is something that was literally printed 4 years ago that he just never sold. He's got variants of prints that have never even been seen, I've just heard the rumors of people seeing them in his files. I'm just happy to see this one finally finished.

AND it's a killer GP.

Yeah, it's not worth getting bent out of shape over. I'd be stoked just for the chance to see one in person. And like that previous post pointed out, it's not always a sub vs. non-sub situation. Some of the WBG variants were limited to like 4. At that point, you just cross your fingers you'll see one some day. I'm perfectly capable of appreciating something that i know i'll probably never have the chance to own.

If theres only a handful of them, it makes sense for them to go to the guys that have been with him from the start. Who wouldn’t agree with that.
Like Baker said there’s a pretty great paper version out there for anyone to grab. And, unless the image is actually cut in to the wood, it’s gonna be hard for the wood to top the print edition in my opinion.
It would be cool to see them work on another/new piece together just so I have a chance to see some of Bruce’s work in person.

If these go to royal order there's going to be a hell of a lot of disappointed people (including some royal order members). If these are sold at mondocon there's going to be a hell of a lot of disappointed people. If these are sold at the vacvvm studio there's going to be a hell of a lot of disappointed people. I mean there's like 13ish or so if I remember correctly. Much like everyone else, I really hope I get a chance at buying one but if I don't i'll be in plenty of company among the disappointed masses and envious of the lucky few.
