Wow,
Just got back home and my print has arrived - Lego Monster Of Spin.
Edition of 42 - with all the usual hand finishing (bright pinks, green and black with the odd white spatter on the paper) - signed by Miss Bugs and Joe Black.
Was not sure about this print when I first saw it - started to grow on me (it's been about 1 1/2 months in the making) and now..... Well....ITS AMAZING.
So chuffed......will post pictures later...when I can link my blackberry pictures to emails!
Love it to bits - great job MB and JB.... Bring on the show in Brighton next month (Friday 6th - i think!)
So happy....my first MB and IMO the best!!
Such a boys print - such a happy boy!
Anybody else had one?

I'm really looking forward to this one. It's grown on me in a big way so far. Congrat's glad you're enjoying it!

    How about that? Tried to do my best with the pictures - to show the hand finishing. Hope it gives you all a good idea. Do you like? |

Love it, looks brilliant and I'm sure even better in the flesh. It's going to be tricky picking a frame!

Does not take long....2 are on ebay already.
Intersting, Miss Bugs said that if anybody sold quickly for a vast profit - they would never sell to them again...
My print has a message hand written on the back....
.....if you purchase of the secondary market, please inform us so we can update our ownership records......
more like, strike a flipper of the purchasing list!

Good, I think that's exactly what all artists and printhouses should be doing. These could have been sold for £300 a pop, but they were sold for just £125. Same goes for all Banksy prints which could easily be sold for £1500, but are not. I hope others take note.
This print looks the dog's danglies and I'm feeling a lot less upset about missing out on TRYHO all of a sudden. Thanks for the pics.

This is getting beyond ridiculous. This latest effort brings the current total to 3 prominent artists (and/or their PR people) milking for ££££££££'s and $$$$$$$$$$'s any connection, real or otherwise, that they may have, or have had, with Banksy. What gets me is not so much the milking of the cash-cow keyword that is Banksy, rather why each of these artists is happy to do/allow this? It's long been said that money would kill this 'scene', but who'd have thought it'd be artists themselves pulling the trigger. Wise words as always Little Bird. |

Perhaps Miss Bugs don't know about that text and it is just the gallery? I tend to agree though, pointless PR, their work is good enough without silly PR...unless it's true (pretty sure not though!)

If ink_d are organising the show then surely MB is, or at least, should be aware of what's been put out about them/him/her. Unless it's a satirical statement? |

Surely that's been written tongue in cheek. At least I read it that way. It must be a joke, surely. I can't see how anyone would take this seriously. Perhaps it's taking the p1ss out of the gossip-spreaders and rumour-mongers..?
