I'm surprised this isn't catching more on the flipside. I thought Tong-ta-tong-tong-tong was on an upswing. I havent seen this movie but it's a nice looking print. I was thinking about it for my kids room. Guess I can just wait a bit til it shows up on the hookup thread.

The amount of never before flippers that have been popping up on ebay the past few months are making things a lot more a pain in the ass -- or better, depending on which side you're on.

let's see where it stands in a few months. was on the fence for this same reason, not that re-sale value is the most important ...but always nice to know you've spent wisely and can eventually sell and upgrade down the line. My first Tong personally, love his style but this was his first print to really suit my taste....so i'm excited to get my copy. This is apparently a long shot at this point, but i really expect it to appreciate over time. A: The movie was a sleeper for sure; no i know has even heard of it...and it was one of the best movies i've seen in the last few years and due to become a modern classic. B: Mondo releases are top quality and always 100x better in person...especially metallic inks. Always seems crazy to me how people sell prints before they're in hand....as i fully expect this to be a stunner in person. point being...if you want a copy...get one now...while the getting is good. just my 2cents

+1 for me. I'm guessing the color in the face of the clock is going to look really nice in person. This will be my first Tong.

Is it just me or was this print really dark? Thought it would have more details of the mechanics

Not just you, i definitely agree. I have the reg and the blue is so dark that you can only see the mechanics in a few places, and thats if you really look
