Re: Collector's Paradise UNITY #1 EXCLUSIVE: Final Cover UPD
All numbers updated, I only have ONE unreserved set #3 left. A couple of the reserved ones are not paid yet, but I expect them to go through.
Release event for issue #1 with Philip Tan is confirmed, working on some cool exclusive things for the signing and for ALL of the sets we are selling.

Re: Collector's Paradise UNITY #1 EXCLUSIVE sets JUST GOT BE
NEWS: Collector's Paradise Exclusive sets just got better, in addition to having our exclusive cover in EVERY SET sold, the first 50 sets sold will come with the NYCC Unity #1 PREVIEW COMIC BOOK. If you have already paid, yours will come with it, I will post how many I have left in the next day or two.
In addition, we will be increasing our order on Unity #1 to accomodate the huge response from VF members. It looks like our order may reach 3,000 copies (2k exclusive, and possibly 1k mix of other covers). Because of this I will open up the orders on both SET #4 with all covers, and SET #3 with all but 1:200 sketch. If you gave me a deposit on set 4, I may be sending you an email to pay the balance.

Re: FREE Unity #1 NYCC Preview in first 50 CP Exclusive SETS
All PMs replied to.
Status on SET 4 and SET 3:
- All 15 of SET 4 have been sold and paid for, unless something drastic changes I have no more
- 10 out of 15 SET 3 have been sold and paid for, so there are 5 total SET 3 left, at $100 it's an amazing deal AND includes our Exclusive cover (otherwise $10) AND includes Unity NYCC Preview FREE.
I still have quite a few of the $45 set 2 available and that's priced super cheap, that cover alone (1:30) will be $20-25, so for $20 more you get our EXCLUSIVE, all other 10 comics, and a UNITY NYCC Preview. That's less than cover price for all of them. I am surprised i am not sold out of these, but I am getting a lot so I guess that one is the best deal.

Re: FREE Unity #1 NYCC Preview in first 50 CP Exclusive SETS
for those looking for the Unity #1 NYCC Preview, I will have 50 of them, and i have now sold 32 qualifying sets, so I have about 18 left to give away with sets.
I am also down to 5 of the SET 3 as I only have 5 1:100 variants not allocated right now.

Re: FREE Unity #1 NYCC Preview in first 50 CP Exclusive SETS
So, here is the deal. I made a trade deal with Larry, some of our variant for the Unity #1 exclusive Phantom Variant, to be able to provide Phantom variant to those who are purchasing my sets, to save you all on shipping. I can not sell phantoms online, in my store, or to anyone not purchasing my sets or exclusives.
I will be emailing members who'd purchased my sets #1-4 and my exclusive covers to give them the opportunity to add the variant for $10. I can not JUST sell you the variant for $10, but you can still order any of our own exclusives or the sets and get that book with it.
The book has two covers, one on top of the other. The outer cover is a blank cover with Phantom Logo, the bottom is an amazing Babies cover by Agnes Grabowski.

Re: Collector's Paradise Unity #1 Variant + PHANTOM Variant
Paradise,
Thanks for organising this for members
These exclusives are hard to get internationally, and I know it's extra work shipping outside the us - so it's super cool to get your exclusive, the nycc and now the phantom
Feel the love people. Group hug

That cover is offensive. I've never felt closer to giving up on collecting the variants.
The worst thing since the Shadowman Grampa variant. Hands down.

Re: Collector's Paradise Unity #1 Variant + PHANTOM Variant
I agree, Grampa is a sick artist, and can do no wrong. That cover is smokin'
I see how people don't like baby covers, but again, this is something that Art Freakin' Adams started in the 80s. They have had them forever. I find them cute and charming if they are done well. I think this one IS done in a charming fashion. And Agnes Grabowska is amazing too.

Yes a big thank you to you Ed for organising this and helping us get these covers, very much appreciated.
The baby cover looks great, it would be good to see all the Valiant characters done this way in their respective titles.

No biggie, I love these opportunities to move a lot of product, help out VEI, make it easier on everyone, AND make a few dollars, hopefully 
About 40 of the Phantom Variants have been sold. Still have 4 of the set #3 left.
