The reg definitely fits the source colors better, but I'm a sucker for that variant color scheme. Forever a slave to those Whalen teals and oranges. :P

This is one of my favorite Christmas specials. Tom did an amazing job on this! I got the regular edition. :)

Great print

But have to believe the pricing came to roost on this one

Its easy to charge 80 when prints flip
otherwise it can leave you holding a stack

Flip worthy or not, I really like this print and it's going on my wall every December for the rest of my life.

Yup, completely agree. Will have a space on my wall for the holidays for a long time.

Doubt it's a stack, and I'd rather artists get the $$$ instead of flippers. Think of the math - if they sell 50 variants at $80, it's $4,000. So, if they sell 40 at $100, they've accomplished the same thing and warded off the flippers, and people who really want them get them without having to give money to someone that hasn't earned it. For those that want to collect, hang, own, the $20 difference will not stop them. And without the instant sell out, they actually have time to purchase without going into shopping cart hell. If that's the cost of stopping the flippers, I'm more than happy to give it to the artist. Quite frankly, I was surprised the foils weren't more like $200-$250.

103 regs/13 vars left... not bad imo for this print (a seasonal, somewhat niche property) with a price tag that's a little higher than Mondo and others (but no different than other DHM releases).

It was wrong to bring finance discussion into the art thread- one last comment, very doubtful the artist is the direct recipient but thats not my point nor our business.

My apologies DHM

It wasn't meant to be a reflection of the quality
this hits my age bracket
TOTAL lover of t.v special to this day....it was more appreciated when it was shown once a year days of old.......

Marvelous work

Sorry if this is common knowledge or posted somewhere else I completely missed, but I've never purchased from DHM before, is there an expected shipping window? Was just wondering if I'll be able to frame & hang it for this Christmas.
