I'd like to tell everyone that this statement isn't completely accurate, but that would be a lie. :o

Thats after Round #3 is in the books.

And, when we started this there were 1200 total reviews between the three sites. As of now, there are 2,637 reviews in the three sites, more than double what we started with :o

18 members are fully qualified and 3 days to go. Will YOU make your posting goal and get in on purchasing the NYCC X O #0 con exclusive and/or the X O Vinyl Figure :? It's all up to you. Plus, with us now having more than twice as many reviews as we started with, I have a sneaking suspicion that VEI is going to be pretty happy with these results, and we all know what they did the last two times they were pleased :hm: :hm: :hm:

VEI is asking me for preliminary counts on the con exclusives which the fully qualified members can purchase. They want to set those aside before NYCC to ensure everyone gets them.

As we've said, there is an X-O #0 NYCC Con Exclusive which is $15.00 per copy. No limits on how many you can purchase.

There is also the NYCC con exclusive X O Manowar Vinyl figure at $25.00 per copy. THERE WILL ONLY EVER BE 150 OF THESE. VEI has told me the qualified members can purchase up to 1/2 of these or 75. As such, we'll start out that each fully qualified member can order up to 2 of these and on the 7th once we know how many fully qualified members we have, you may have the opportunity to purchase more at the same price. I think it's pretty awesome that VEI is allowing the participating members here to have up to 1/2 of the total number. It demonstrates how much VEI thinks of this site and the members, along with they support we all give VEI.

If you ARE fully qualified, please let us know how many of each you will want. We'll expect Paypal payments for these on 10/7. Thanks.

With rounds 1 and 2, we combined the exclusives with the "extras" that Valiant sent for the qualified members.

We like to use priority flat rate boxes when possible since the cost is predetermined and they're insured.

Don't mean to be evasive in answering you question, but we have yet to get physical dimensions on the boxed X O figure to know what it will fit in, and we don't get word on any potential "extras" as a "thanks" from VEI until after the promo ends.

That's a REALLY long way of answering your question with a "I'm not sure". We do pack REALLY well as participants in rounds 1 and 2 can attest to and we keep shipping as low as we can, depending on the size of the items.

Sadly, I'll have to get neither of those extras since I wouldn't have the funds available by the 7th. No worries though, glad to help VEI and if we get any other "Thank You's" from VEI, I'll be happy with those! Though the Vinyl figure is cool (and VERY collectible at only 150 ever made!), I was hoping for an 'action' figure, with moving parts and such when they announced it.

Thanks! The Round 2 goodies are some of my favorite items in any of my collections (they are in my 3 hurricane boxes). And it feels great to help out our favorite comic book guys.

It's a cool cover. The coloring looks a bit 80s, in a good way.
