Maybe I am in the minority, but I have never been big on foil prints.

^ same I can find foil acceptable for a single element if done correctly. Or like how 2001 did the monolith..

I like the aesthetic on those Monster posters. Is that supposed to be Julie Adams on the Creature or just a random artist-invented lady? It doesn't quite look like her to me on these small phone images.

Semi-related... but has anyone found a decent 18x36 frame that doesn't break the bank? Just really struggle with this size unless I go custom.

You'd think that, but surprisingly, the pickings are slim. :(

I thought the John Alvin Blade Runner title version was well done for the property . So you can make that 3 in the market.

The TMNT foil variant I got in my mystery tube is pretty choice. Definitely making the wall in the basement home theater.

This is a bit late, but I just wanted to say a big thank you to Bottleneck for the amazing Griffin Lynch Dune prints I received a while back. Arrived safely and in pristine condition. The drawings are amazing and the color scheme really pops. Added touch of the regular/variant being a matching set was above and beyond anything I was expecting. It is much appreciated!
