I had seen these posted on about in the Mega-Fauna blog but it was cool to get one in the mail...

I had seen posts about this show for days, but it never dawned on me until today that it's actually in Minnesota. I live about 2.5 hours from Windom. Kind of thinking about making the trip out curiosity.

Also, I'll probably require to be paypal'd prior to buying to solidify everyone's spot. If something occurs, e.g. i'm only allowed to buy two, i'll just refund said person's money.

Thanks Buddy!! I owe you one

The show was killer, small but PACKED with his stuff...the original illustrations are absolutely mind blowing. Print was limited to one per, seems they must have sold around 75 of them there. They gave away one of the variants to whoever guessed the number of stars correctly...the girl who won was within 20! She promptly failed to show up for the print and I'm pretty sure they didn't give it to second place...there are like 4,170 stars or something near that

Great show. I was blown away at seeing all of those prints in person up close. I took some pictures. I was using a point-and-shoot, so I did what I could with them. Should give you an idea of what the show was like though.

I think she showed up within 10 mins or so to claim it.

Soooooo tired but it was worth the 1,700 mile drive.

any word on where those post cards went? or how one could go about purchasing one or a set?

So...is there a general idea of the meaning of "random" for drop times for P&T's? In other words, Mondo/Alamo prints are always stated as "random", but as a rule we know the release times are usually the same. In my case 10am PDT. Please help a poor soul out...I'd love to try for one of these...just can't be at my pc all day. If I can get an aprox time...I'll need to drive across town to get to my pc so I can try for one. Thanks.

I wish I had a ball park idea as well, although I get the impression that there aren't very many of these to go around and so my hopes have been adjusted accordingly.
