Site was nice and fast throughout the whole drop. The grand finale is gonna sincerely test the whole thing but so far so good. :) Oi Justin I think the new “system” is solid.

WTF is with the cut-and-pasted oompa loompa's in ranger hats? I missed this one, but I think if I bought it I would hide the bottom portion of the image.

SOMETIME IN THE AFTERNOON? Why is this cool to do to people? And regarding the new policies, why drop the "on sale now" email? I understand you are doing twitter and facebook, but what about us fans who work day jobs for a living and have those sites blocked by our employers? I understand the demand for these prints and hold no ill will towards Mondo regarding how fast these things sell out, how limited the runs are, or the shopping cart logistics, but it really seems like you like to fuck with people, with these announcements that lie about when the print is going on sale AND that you don't really care that you are handicapping a group of fans that rely on the email notifications to try to grab print. Why not do "on sale now" notifications via facebook, twitter, and email? Would that be so difficult?

I know Jay Ryan and Aaron Horkey had one recently. It'd be a Hell of a big finish. Just speculating, but couldn’t it also be a multi-artist collaborative print?

Though since we haven't even seen Palpatine yet, I won't hold my breath. I was always hoping for one release to be of the Emperor’s Royal Guards.
