I quite like this, the detail looks bonkers. Anyone have any kill pixie already in their collections ?

Is anyone else distinctly underwhelmed by these releases, or is it just me? Went to POW last night and thought it was pretty poor tbh.

date farmers are best most of the others are either over priced or just silly - love lister but that spongebob is just stupid

DRAN x 4 up on site....

[Deleted]

yeah, but I can't bag them! very annoying

[twist65]

I agree too, quite interested to have a proper look at Saner and Smithe though. Sofar I like the Paul Insect, but in a "yeah I like that" rather than "oh my god quick where's the credit card" kind of way. And although its good to see something different from Xenz I think that's his most disappointing piece ever! Lucy Mac's gonna have to pull it out the bag otherwise I think i'll save my pennies..

[rosstierney]

I'm really looking forward to the 3D. I just hope they get the Edition:Price right or I'll be waiting to pick it up on the secondary.

Dran = gone

Do you think POW will do a pop up shop in Mexico?
It's strange they have not told anyone yet. Maybe it's to stop pepole going to the shop before tickets are available ??

The Insect print didn't do it for me at all and seeing it in the flesh it was even more disappointing, it seemed flat and lacking in colour. I did however think that the metallic version was far more punchy and the black ink stood out much more. If I was a fan of the image I would have gone for the metallic paper for the extra £100.

Just bagged a Dran from the POW website...yeeeeehaaaaa!!!

[twist65]

yeah I would love to see the metallic one I bet that rocks. Shame if the other one looks flat, I've always thought Insects colours are bang on the money, oh well. Re a pop up shop in Mexico I can't see that happening - I'm sure the whole point of the event at POW is to drive footfall to their new place, no need to spend extra £££s on an offshore gaff when they got a new shop to promote...

[rosstierney]

metallic? how many in the edition?

Yes and I have been trying to grab one for the last 2 hours. I know i have had nearly a week to get one but only opted for it this morning. Sent POW an email but havent received a reply from them.

[ashby]

Does anyone have any release dates for the Lucy Mac or the 3D?

Well done on getting the Dran print...they look amazing in the flesh...not sure if its Litho print or what but its amazing to see all those fantastic colours!

[BME]

Love the Kill Pixie and the Lister but am less sure about some of the other stuff. The insect does nothing for me I am afraid.

[Daniel Silk]

I wonder how these pieces would have gone done at the Old Santas Ghettos?

Have our tastes changed over the years on here after seeing so much art and having so much choice?

[gbh]

gotta say, in general this release is overall meh....

A lot of the posts on this thread mirror those from last year re ppl being disappointed with the prints being released. Like them or not POW are releasing a wide range of prints with prices as low as £25 which should be applauded. As always art is a personal thing and one persons Mona Lisa is another persons zbiok (or whatever his name is)

[kel]

Well its been 24 hours and still no reply to my email it is understandable though with all the chaos with so many releases.

Intrestingly they still managed to take the £333 out of my account this morning. Now thats customer service for you.

[boatboy]

Stampede to pow tomorrow morning then?

Is it just me or is that not linked from the main pow site anywhere? Was it only sent via email or something?

[anthoz]

anyone have any clue when this draw will be
the T&C's said the draw closes on sunday but they have now taken the link to the draw page of the homepage.
I would assume that they would do the draw sometime late on sunday or monday.

I am also surprised that a 2 week POW event would climax with the Banksy release after only 1 week.
POW always go out with a bang so I am assuming something else is on the cards for next week perhaps?
