Re: Who is NOT getting the 1:20 or 1:50 variants?
Looks like I'm not getting them from at least one LCS. I went to one of the biggest shops in the area and asked if he'd be getting both. He said no. I offered to cover the difference thinking he may be getting 30+ copies, but he said he is too far away. He is only ordering 20 copies for subs and shelf in total. If he still has the 1/20 I'll likely get it. He said no one is talking about it. This is one of very few shops that even takes a chance on non big 2 around here.
There's one shop a bit away that claims he is getting both variants. If he said he wasn't, I was going to offer to cover the difference again.

I'm not getting any varients. I hate them.
Know this: I would rather be hated for being honest for my opinions, than being loved as a liar!

I ordered both the 1:20 and the 1:50 from DCBS and am really hoping to get both. I can't pay more than what DCBS is charging for them though if DCBS doesn't fill my order.

and what did you have to order to get them at such a great price and am I right in thinking there is no guarantee you get them anyway?BruceReville wrote:12.00 & 25.00 respectivelyDraco wrote:What prices are they dude ?geocarr wrote:I ordered both the 1:20 and the 1:50 from DCBS and am really hoping to get both.

After seeing the offer of all the books for $50 on another thread, i'd be inclined to jump all over that.BruceReville wrote:No minimum of the regular covers - but no guarentee eitherDraco wrote:and what did you have to order to get them at such a great price and am I right in thinking there is no guarantee you get them anyway?BruceReville wrote:12.00 & 25.00 respectivelyDraco wrote:What prices are they dude ?geocarr wrote:I ordered both the 1:20 and the 1:50 from DCBS and am really hoping to get both.

Not 10 of the same... 10 total comic books.... they can be multiples or one-ofs, as long as the total number of books ordered is 10 or more...

Re: Who is NOT getting the 1:20 or 1:50 variants?
I am looking on the DCBS website, and I can't find the 1:20 or 1:50 covers anywhere. I see the regular and pull box versions, but that is it.

Yep. I doubt many people who ordered them will get them. They pulled them down very quickly. I've never seen them do that.BruceReville wrote:They removed them - too many orderscjv wrote:I am looking on the DCBS website, and I can't find the 1:20 or 1:50 covers anywhere.

Same here. I don't expect to get them, but if I do it'll be a nice surprise.BruceReville wrote:That's why I am like400yrs wrote:Yep. I doubt many people who ordered them will get them.

I ordered them through my normal mail-order company and they acted like it will be no problem to get them. I am going to be super ticked if they don't show up after I passed up that smoking deal from Paradise Comics.

Re: Who is NOT getting the 1:20 or 1:50 variants?
My order has been changed to now read, "Limit 1 per customer". I believe it was a few weeks ago they actually pulled the variants off the site for ordering and the limit appeared as well. I am eternally optimistic I will get foooked in the end.etos45 wrote:Same here.

How many did you order initially?

Thanks to the great deal offerred by paradise, I will be getting all of the XO variants after all. Really looking forward to May now!

Anyone know if the 1:20's will continue beyond the summer of valiant, after archer and armstrong #1. I can't afford to pay for them each month:(

I sure hope not. The way A&A is set up with the line-wide variant, it looks like they were going for a grand finale.fury143 wrote:Anyone know if the 1:20's will continue beyond the summer of valiant, after archer and armstrong #1. I can't afford to pay for them each month:(

But come after August, I doubt I will be able to afford to buy the 1:20 Variant's if they continue, no matter how much I might want them.
It's not that I don't have an avatar... I've just been working on it for the last few hundred years.
