He said on Twitter it was probably his favorite Miyazaki film.

Still decompressing after The Wind Rises, but I think it might be my favourite Miyazaki film. Completely stunning.
Yay!

Not necessarily. If I had to guess, I bet they'll be $200 shipped.

Looking at the numbers, and though GoT is popular, I think the blind box idea still the best idea. Since there are so many, and without rares, the random factor at static should go better this time.

I do not think that GoT will have a resale value the same as the Videogame prints. With the added idea of no rarity, people will be more open to trading as well, since the after market value will stay relatively low. Just as true detective prints.

Since there are only a few people who want all 30, the blind box sets will create the environment to trade, and not push people to spend 450 just to get the 4/6 they want. Even on the after market, the average cost for 6 would be below 450.

Yeah, the GOT thingies are going to be a lot cheaper than that I think. Probably 12 for a blindbox. 30 for a blindbox pack of three. 260 for the set. Maybe more, maybe less.

Might throw a super rare one in of a character that we haven't seen yet. Need to see the character design they go with first.

Let's make it less please :D

I'd like them all, but can't justify spending over $200 on them. If you sell them for $200, that comes out to $6.50-ish per print. I don't know how much these little 5x5's cost to produce though, but wouldn't think it would cost all that much.

please dont (unless I get one, in which case its fine) - or if you do then maybe include it with the full set, otherwise it isnt a full set and the completists are going to get bent over by the flippers and have to pay as much again for a single print :?
