Re: Hirota Saigansho: Gorilla-ju, Mecha Gorilla-ju, & Tyrann

I also find the fold mark
But just like you say,it's still awesome!!

 

Re: Hirota Saigansho: Gorilla-ju, Mecha Gorilla-ju, & Tyrann

What paper is it printed on?

is it like, super thin or glossy or anything?

info, pls?

 

Re: Hirota Saigansho: Gorilla-ju, Mecha Gorilla-ju, & Tyrann

I would say the paper is fairly thick for a poster and is semi gloss finish.

 

Re: Hirota Saigansho: Gorilla-ju, Mecha Gorilla-ju, & Tyrann

it seems like normal movie-poster type paper to me.

 

Re: Hirota Saigansho: Gorilla-ju, Mecha Gorilla-ju, & Tyrann

its much higher grade print & paper than movie theatre posters
so the paper does not absorb grease or show finger prints etc.

i have an old Cocobat poster thats very similar in quality.........
personally i love the HS flyer/ad it looks like its from the 70's

 

Re: Hirota Saigansho: Gorilla-ju, Mecha Gorilla-ju, & Tyrann

I would say the paper thickness is like that of a Japanese B1 size 2 sheet movie poster which is thicker than the standard B2 size 1 sheet movie poster. But the paper like kichigai stated does seem much higher in quality than that of a B1 size .

Paper schmaper . . .

Yes - green is what I've been waiting for! Now hopefully I (a) remember to try and (b) win. Or is this going to be allocated for those who bought posters?

 

Re: Hirota Saigansho: Gorilla-ju, Mecha Gorilla-ju, & Tyrann

Winners were notified already.

 

Re: Hirota Saigansho: Gorilla-ju, Mecha Gorilla-ju, & Tyrann

For the poster or the Ape?

 

Re: Hirota Saigansho: Gorilla-ju, Mecha Gorilla-ju, & Tyrann

For the mecha gorilla ju.

 

Re: Hirota Saigansho: Gorilla-ju, Mecha Gorilla-ju, & Tyrann

So you had to buy the poster ?

Lame.

 

Re: Hirota Saigansho: Gorilla-ju, Mecha Gorilla-ju, & Tyrann

I thought we'd get another email on how to apply.

 

Re: Hirota Saigansho: Gorilla-ju, Mecha Gorilla-ju, & Tyrann

Not all poster buyers were offered one...

 

Re: Hirota Saigansho: Gorilla-ju, Mecha Gorilla-ju, & Tyrann

Well good - I can go back to ignoring this thread.
Yawn...

 

Re: Hirota Saigansho: Gorilla-ju, Mecha Gorilla-ju, & Tyrann

Notified by email or poster insert?

 

Re: Hirota Saigansho: Gorilla-ju, Mecha Gorilla-ju, & Tyrann

Notified by email.

Last time he went down the list of people who purchased the posters. So I'm assuming if there's a run of 30, 30 people who bought posters were notified for the Mecha Ju. Then on the next release, 30 more people. Once most people who bought posters had a chance at buying a figure it went back to lottery.

I think it's cool he does that. The idea I guess is that if you bought a poster your actually a fan of his figures. But unfortunately this is a business to some people so they join just to make a buck.

 

Re: Hirota Saigansho: Gorilla-ju, Mecha Gorilla-ju, & Tyrann

It also helps in stopping people who enter multiple times. But all in all I believe it was done the first time around as a thank you/bonus for people who simply loved the artwork. Think about it, the first poster sale had no hype or buzz so the people who bought it were fans of the artwork that Hirota personally had commissioned. I didn't buy the first poster and I missed out but I still thought it was a cool thing to do.

 

Re: Hirota Saigansho: Gorilla-ju, Mecha Gorilla-ju, & Tyrann

I like the posters, toys or not.

Lottery entry fees lead to lame backflip-for-a-bigger-flip listings like this.... viewtopic.php?f=9&t=44418
