    Hey thanks Ames for posting nothing for substantial for 7 hours, and then sending out another email to tell everyone the real drop is happening at 6pm PST. 
    I didn't get the update email from Ames, sounds like the most interesting thing that they have dropped all day!

    I think it means final poster drop will be at 6 Pacific time, but the sale on current in stock posters will resume until midnight Pacific time.

    That’s how I read it too. Either way looks like we are in for at least 1 more (hopefully big) drop!

    I've had my eyes on the TOTD tryptic for a while.

    It was a nice score, given the fact that the show editions were recently reduced at the 10C shop.

    For an AP?

    I'd think about it.


    I'm surprised that one never had a variant...

    That's it? Really? Wow! That was the most anti-climatic sale I have ever witnessed. 

    PS I love how they sent an email blast to their whole list over 1 poster dropping at 6pm. LOL

    That was the once every 25 years sale?  What did they have 4 prints, tops, of those prints?  I guess when a bunch of your prints go to charities for tax deductions, there's not much left over.
