But online where? (I know, it's hopeless, but...)

We can't even get an edition of 450, let alone [90 - what's already been sold]

I actually manage sometimes with no fancy trick (but a super fast internet connection at work)

Gone in seconds. Thought I had one but the PayPal link was outdated when I went to checkout. Strange.

The people that do actually manage to buy one of Sheps prints automatically get selected for the Top Gun academy where they get to be fighter pilots and blow everything that moves out of the sky !

Secret Air Force programme. Makes sense.

You mean the Petty print? Well, it was half the usual size of the edition. Still waiting for that LF Egalite...

If anyone is interested the LF prints of the new Kickstarter (We the future) they are up for $ 750 each at the Kickstarter page.

[stuckeyc]

What other prints were available in paris?

Yes. I had it in the cart but when I hit the PayPal button, a message stating the PayPal link was outdated popped up.

He usually gives some warning, I think! It could be a while to wait.

I know... but last year, December I think, all of a sudden several prints previously released started popping up on the store page unexpectedly (I guess these were cancelled/unpaid/duplicate orders), and I managed to score a handful then. This was discussed somewhere in the forum I think, and several people scored them.

Have you bought from Obey recently? Does it still bounce you back to the Obey website after taking you to Paypal, to confirm your order?... Used to be where it all went wrong and basket was empty!!

I avoid PayPal because of this on any release (after I’ve lost even scattercrow this way), and use instead autofill for my card details

Companion vs 5yl
Small passing through vs limited passing through

Why would anyone buy the limited edition when they can get the same image or toy for much cheaper? I don't understand why the price would increase on the limited

I assume you got the large format during the show so you'll have to argue for the limited right?

[d.r. perseus]

I for one will be happy to put the image on my wall.

Lol i honestly don’t know why but it’s facts...
There are still many differences :
Size
Quality
Medium and paper
Numbered
...

But I really don’t care about seeing it raise or no, I’m more than happy to add this one on my wall since I’m French and I’m happy for others that they can have an open ed !!

Example of the letterpress details closer

Wow that's a beauty. Now I wish I was French too😄

If any Parisians or visitors to Paris could pick one of these up for me I would gladly buy them a few bieres 😊

[stuckeyc]

My god that letterpress looks fantastic. As far as the open edition goes the readily available DL he put out had no effect and those could be printed on demand

[pippyt75]

Any more word on when / where the letterpress will be available?

By the same logic no one should pay for Banksy prints since you can print a GWB knock-off on an inkjet printer. Limited is limited. Better quality, numbered etc. as someone mentioned. And there is a huge difference between a LF screenprint and an offset.

Plus - just look at price history of his other releases - no need to look far, take We the People prints. Having an open edition for a popular image just created more hype for the S/N ones.
