Got my lithos and was on the first order. Both are number 93/800.

Got my lithos, was part of the first order. 164/800 on both.

Packaging was the same as Archangel. No damage, like Archangel, just the annoying stripe of tape across the plastic slip. Can't really complain about it.

Here's some large images of these two for you all;




I'm not disappointed, but I'm not as thrilled with these as say, Archangel, The Team, or Tali. I'll reserve deeper critique for others, I suppose.

Dead Reaper looks pretty good in that pic

[AgenTBC]

I think the Dead Reaper is actually a pretty nice litho.

Oh I agree with you two, they aren't bad lithos at all. I guess I'll mention my only legitimate critique now. I feel if anything they feel a little washed out is all, the scenes feel a bit too soft. If I have a critique at all, it would be for some sharper, stronger contrasts in the colors.

But all in all, I'm pretty pleased with them, no regrets about this purchase at all, I simply don't think they rank up there as the same, attention getting things we saw with many of the character lithos and a select few location lithos (Ilium comes to mind), but I'd say it's on par with the Cerberus lithograph: pretty and pleasing. (edit add) And I think it ranks over the more speedpaint styles that were apparent in a few scene lithos, like Purgatory Cells. These have their smaller details and more polished finish, I like them a lot.

The packaging was the usual Uline flat fare, and the upgraded flat size to pad out the edges, combined with that securing stripe of tape, did its job; i have no creases, bends, or dents in either litho. The shipping costs are on target for the cost of shipping and packaging too (I happen to get the Uline catalogs, which sells their packaging materials.) so, bottom line: happy to add these to the growing collection!

Still waiting for mine to cross the Atlantic. Seeing the Prototype in that picture it does look a lot better then the store images led on.

I was a little apprehensive, but ordered for the sake of not missing out (again) on part of this collection. I'm glad I stuck with it, they'll fit in to the collection nicely, instead of detract from it, as some people seemed to suggest earlier.

Just got mine lithos now, numbers 36/800, the lowest numbers I ever got.

[SniperREX]

Good for you

I can confirm that the order # doesn't matter. I received #110 even though I ordered within a few seconds from when the two pack was available.

[NamiraWilhelm]

Hmm, looks like they've changed their mind on the 'first order = litho 1, second = litho 2' then

[AgenTBC]

Am I the only one who gets a kick out of the obviously conscience-free folks who bought these lithographs and are now listing them on eBay at a 500% markup despite hundreds of them still being available directly from the Bioware Store at the original price? It must be nice not to have a soul.

A soul.. or brains. I've been adding all the lithos on ebay to my watch lists and whats incredible is how many relist them at the same price. I've even spotted one guy who must think people aren't buying because he isn't charging enough, because he raises his price on relistings!

[NamiraWilhelm]

*goes to look for expected names listing them*

[Ghost GBR]

Yup, people who are trying to determine the market value, as opposed to the demand doing it...heck this twin pack still hasn't sold out and they're already over inflating the price...they're scum.

[CDRSkyShepard]

Got my SR2 Prototype. Very nice $40 price tag, thank you.

[epicjas0n]

$30 for unsigned; $40 for signed. I might start purchasing again.

[vometia]

Hmm, it's now day 10 having received the shipping notice and still no tracking information. That's a bit worrying.

If it was going to happen to ANY litho, im glad it was these

Ms Domino said that $80 for the two pack was a discounted price and now they are selling the single for $40 <_< . I feel cheated

I'm fairly certain that was the exact plan that they had made. Then, then the two pack didn't sell out in half a minute like some previous lithos had done. then the two pack didn't sell out for over a week. then, the plan changed to deal with the reality of the consumer demand.

I bet if the two packs had sold through on the release day, they would have thrown the singles up at $50 for signed.

I know, but still. The early "adopters" did not get any advantage <_<.

Anybody want to bet that the next set of lithographs (assuming there are any) are limited to 500 or fewer signed copies? I'm guessing they learned their lesson flooding the market like this. They still haven't even sold half of them.

Memo: When some of the appeal of your product is its scarcity do not kill the goose by eliminating scarcity.

If it were up to me I'd release either 500 signed copies and NO unsigned, or 300 signed and then the unsigned.

I certainly hope they learn from it, but who knows...only time will tell.

Despite actually liking these Lithographs, I'm more than happy to give them a miss, just out of principle.

Seems I just needed to moan about it, they've now been spotted in Droitwich.

That is rather annoying: I wasn't especially interested in the Prototype litho but bought the pack anyway on the basis that it might not be too bad and I'd be saving money.  I guess I should be less trigger-happy in future...

[NamiraWilhelm]

Oh yeah you said tracking information actually works now, mine's in this mysterious droitwich too!
