TELL YOUR LCS THEY CAN STILL ORDER CHROMIUM W/O RESTRICTIONS

Post by brucehartshorn »

Just FYI, if you are wanting chromium covers, just contact your LCS and let them know that they can STILL order what you want. The restrictions that were initially applied to those order have been lifted by VEI and just today Atom! said to get the word out to your LCS if you want any of these :high-five:

So I guess it's just the regular version that's sold out?
If you're not a *SQUEE*, you're okay with me.

Was I the only one that thought the foil cover was a bit dull?

I kinda thought the same thing. At a glance, it doesn't look all that different. You can tell when you pick it up and examine it but it doesn't really jump out at you. I wish they'd do something like those DC lenticulars.

Not sure how much help you can be on this Bruce but I emailed my LCS yesterday and he said today that after talking to his Diamond rep that they were not aware of any changes in the ordering requirements. Does it take Diamond a little bit to update stuff like this?

My LCS was only able to bring in the Chromium cover for Armor Hunters #1 with the previous restrictions.

Ask them to contact Atom Freeman at VEI. Atom is the sales manager and he can interface directly with Diamond on this matter for your LCS. Thanks.

Compared to the VH1 chromium they are significantly less impressive (more like foil-ish than rich chromium depth). That said, I still like them and bought them.

Agreed, it's been really bothering me that if you catch them at the wrong angel they look terrible :( The VE1 chrom covers were a much better quality.
