 Re: Weirdearth Vampire Rose
I'm just surprised that the run for this was so small; smaller than the blue frost and pink GID by a LOT and that even with that it still wasn't one per person.

I wish that all of the more major releases such as the Green Hell and the Red were indefinite runs so that everyone would be able to get them and I wouldn't have to resort to attempting to trade another colorway for one of the older ones as I don't have the $255 for a figure that originally retailed for $25...

 Re: Weirdearth Vampire Rose
Congrats on the show Josh and rose release! All of the work looks amazing. I was hoping that either Backward Thinking or Forward Thinking was going to make it the website but I"m not surprised.

 Re: Weirdearth Vampire Rose
Disappointed about missing out on the Rose but what I really wish is that I could afford to buy some of Josh's art right now. He deserves our support and his work keeps getting better and better. Always liked his style, and I hope this show increases his public profile as an artist.

I'm about a beer and a half away from impulse buying the "Pigeon Wizard" piece he has on the S7 site.

 Re: Weirdearth Vampire Rose
Looks like the show last night was a huge success...thanks for sharing pics of it! And congrats to Josh on a great show.
Like most of you, I'm pretty bummed I missed out on the Outerspaced RV today. That's what I get for waiting til 1 to see if it was up yet. Oh well, I've been pretty lucky on all of the RV releases to date (except the Green Hell RV) so I can't really complain.

 Re: Weirdearth Vampire Rose
ok, i'm pretty new around here myself, but i think we all know that this should not be turned into a LTB thread.. let me know if i'm wrong on this one, but i'm pretty sure thats what the LTB section is for.. usually i try and avoid policing boards, but lets cut this shit out before us recent converts are hated even more than we already are...

Nobody bought 3, 2 was the limit. And not everyone bought two. You guys also need to remember SSSS they get dibs too

Was on the phone with my friend who was there and the 3 came from the guy in front of him who tried to buy 3 but only got 2. I also had no clue that SSSS got dibs on stuff like this either.
