Super mailday!

Ampeg Micro Stack arrived the other day:

My first piece from the Supreme x Universal collab this year. So far the best Christmas gift received yet.


And yeah, those are definitely large vintage wooden cutouts of Huey, Dewey & Louie sitting below. And they rule (from the same person).

thats pretty awesome.. no way i could afford one though.

I am not up for paying flipper prices, but I'm absolutely dedicated to nabbing the Creature & Mummy pieces too (if and when they ever pop up).

Some early Xmas gifts from my folks this week:

nice, ive got the book in the second picture, its fun to look at

How much do they retail for?

That white Doarat Hedorah is just beautiful . . .

Yeah, that's one of my favorites! Such a great sculpt, and the clean whiteness really shows it off well. Even though technically it's "unpainted" I don't view it in the same way as most unpainteds. Most seem to be lacking paint, and this isn't lacking anything. I suppose the eyes help with that.

Google says... t-shirts retail for $149 USD, sweatshirts are $239 USD and pullovers are $261 USD

I don't even want to know what a flipper price would be, hype is a powerful thing.

I'm sorry, but WHAT!?! Not to be a judgmental bastard (okay, no, I am) but anyone who pays those prices for essentially a Hanes Beefy-T is dumb. Even dumber than someone who spends $1K on a Nag.
Those prices actually make me angry.

Those prices are stupid!

LOVE this.


And this is why I stick to only buying hats from Supreme Relatively pricey for a cap, but the mark-up isn't nearly as extreme. I do have to say, although the prices are crazy regardless of the product, the quality of Supreme gear is awesome.

Supreme... their t-shirts are priced about the same as Mishka, Actual Pain, Flying Coffin, etc. (used those other brands as most here know of them). Hard to see that with their current online store stock as the graphic tees left are a special release with David Lynch (add a few more dollars to the price). The deal with Supreme is that their stuff sells out lightning quick and is resold even faster on the bay. Their general release clothing can get pricey, no doubt. Quality is typically high and if clothing holding a value is important to you, you could resell your stuff a year or two later (after wearing it) for probably more than you bought it for.

All in all, to each their own.

It should be known that Supreme is an AMERICAN company, and that this Universal Studios licensed collab had it's press release in Japan first. Most/all news sites refer to the Japanese press release, so those are the Japanese retail prices converted to USD. As you can imagine, their American wares are marked up higher in Japan, and when you exchange those inflated numbers back to our puny USD - it looks ridiculous!

In America, the tee, hoodie, and crewneck were regular Supreme (COLLAB) prices - which is just over their usual stuff to cover the licensing costs: approx $55, $140, and $110. It was a gift, I didn't purchase it (though I have purchased Supreme items), and it's something I've wanted for over a year now.

Anyway, got a sweet Christmas present today from Jefftallica!

While I still think those are some mighty high prices for a t-shirt, hoody, and sweatshirt, they are MUCH more reasonable than what was first reported. Typical "boutique" pricing, I suppose.

Finally found this bugger for a decent price!
