Thats that tosser fatherxmas. Don't buy dust from him, total fraud. He does not own them, he will find a buyer... Low ball someone an offer on here or on ebay..then without even touching it trade it onto to the original person enquiring. Waste of space. Typical example would be this... www.distinctive-vision.com/store/d33-art/al-murphy/Still available on POW for half that price I strongly believe that fatherxmas, aka johnnyboy, aka distinctive vision, is actually still around this forum under another pseudo, looking to buy CYWs! Sell him yours so he can make a sweet lil' profit.

And whoever it was that bought "Loves" more punk than you punk set, may be connected, because the same day the punks sold, the same 3 colours were advertised on distinctive visions twitter account Possibly coincidence, but I doubt it

Flipping through a film mag and couldn`t help but notice that the tagline of The Expendables is.... you guessed it, Choose Your Weapon. What could it all mean? Is Banksy trying to tell us he`s a massive stallone fan? Is Stallone actually Banksy?

All this distinctive talk does is advertise his company, can only help promote him.

Saw a 'gold' version in the flesh this morning. It looked stunning with pink signature, edition of 25. Sorry! no pictures though. You'll just have to take my word for it.

Nice frame work and pics. THx for sharing those.
I went for the Red one and was wondering if anyone on here scored one? I've seen people post that they got grey, blue, and green, but not a single red. Maybe I missed that 1 post which someone scored a red. Anyone here score a RED??

New interview with Viona. How is the trial going? How has Banksy’s aid helped? Life becomes better, life becomes merrier every day. The things are bouncing along now, as thousands of officers from the Ministry of Home Affairs and the Federal Secret Service are carefully studying the works of the Voina group artists. They wiretap our phones, write down every our word. For me they have already prepared a criminal article, reading “organizing and leading a criminal community” — namely, the Voina art group. The term of imprisonment for this article is between 12 and 20 years. So we have felt the vivid interest of the fascist authorities to contemporary art on our own back. How is Kasper doing? Kasper the Striking Falcon (that is the translated variant of his real name, by the way) is growing very fast. It’s a shame that his loving father, the artist Oleg Vorotnikov, the founding father of the Voina group and its ideologist, is being kept in prison. He is in a mass cell with prisoners suffering from T.B. and hepatitis. And that’s instead of playing with his son and gladden the hearts by his genius actions. Is the Russian government cracking down on expression lately or is their vendetta against VOINA personal? The Russian authorities obliterate everyone who stands in their way to plunder petrodollars. They don’t give a s**t about expression and about the country’s citizens in general. What remains the mission of your art collective, despite the adversaries? Our aim is to destroy the ideological basis of totalitarianism, authoritarianism and the right-wing fascist idiocy. By our actions we symbolically revive the struggle for human rights and democracy. Do you feel a bond with activist street art and graffiti more than the decadent mainstream art world? The gallery art has died. Today you can do an innovative art in the street only or in prison, on the edge between Life and Death, between Reality and Imaginary. Art calls for sacrifice. Do you expect to continue with the protest art/survival“handbook”? Of course, we will to carry out the libertarian, anarchy and punk ideals into life. No to money! Long live the Art! animalnewyork.com/

does that mean that still no-one has come forward with a red? Thats true as far as I know. Not 1 person has come forward with a Red. Guess I chose the wrong c-way to try for in the lottery. One person cant win them all, but how about any person winning one? Have any real pictures of an editioned red (not the one on display) been posted? Might as well call it the Ghost (or dead) edition, instead of red.

Without repeating myself again and again, i think it goes to show that some will never see daylight. Editions of 25 of which 20 get released is like a needle in a haystack. Just takes 20 fans and they are gone forever like the other colours will be

It's not even getting anywhere, it's pages and pages of people moaning and repeating the same things over and over about queue jumping, flipping, hype...

Some of the buyers on ebay are driving me chuffin mad! Two cyw have sold tonight for best offers way above what I was offered them for over two days ago but was not prepared to pay.This is only driving the price up further and making the sellers expect more. One sold for £3250 (they offered to me for 3k) and the other £3695 ( offered to me for £3250) both I felt I could have pushed down further if id tried. STOP paying silly money. Were paying more than they want! Rant over!
