Ms. Domino, care to hint at when we might be seeing some new ME lithos?
Any upcoming Mass Effect lithographs?

There was some talk a couple of months ago for a litho to be released in the month of November, but there was none. Not sure if they trying to figure out a new idea of litho release ie amount of copies signed / unsigned after the prototype and dead reaper fiasco and lack of sales. I'm really hoping for another one before Xmas. C'mon liara. :-)

Its unlikely we will be releasing any lithographs before January. However, while unconfirmed I expect there will be new lithographs in January.
Also note we will be reducing the print run on the next round, tentatively planned at 500, and not releasing unsigned versions in the same size or at the same time.

So you tried two methods to deal with the issues we were having with lithos the last time round, now you're removing both? I know you've ended up with a lot of left over stock of the last two, but i honestly believe that to be the quality of those particular two. I would have thought keeping one method, preferably IMO releasing unsigned versions, would be better...
But i guess your last comment could mean you'll be releasing different sized unsigned, anyone who misses out might be content at that....

@Jedi: I think releasing 800 was a mistake so im glad the numbers have been reduced. Also as Namira pointed out the last two lithos wernt the best. We know the Normandy SR-2 Litho was one the most popular but you then decided to create another three lithos with the Normandy on in such a short space of time. Cerberus, Dead Reaper and Prototype. That was doomed to failure as you have seen because you just over saturated and tried to capitalise on the SR-2 popularity.
Also there were other problems with the Dead Reaper and why its not been sucessfull. Its got ME2 written all over it and the Normandy is in Cerberus colours. However it seems it should be a concept for downing a Reaper in ME3. But its instantly a contradiction because of said ME2 referencess. So has Shepard found a Reaper between the end of ME2 and the Alliance regaining the Normandy? Its a piece that doesnt make sense. Im not knocking the artist and the quality of the work however.
I do think having the unsigned ones of similar size will work for those missing out. So long as you stick to creating lithos that each are different and show something special we can identify with. Cerberus, Prototype and Dead Reaper are unknown locations and situations we cant identify with and so have no vested interest. Citadel and Omega for example are popular because they are loved locations.
Ok sorry if that sounded a bit ranty. But as a massive fan who has spent hundreds on them and im just trying to help and steer you back on course because you seem to have lost your way with the Lithos of late.
Also please please please do a Liara one!!

Any chance for a Samara litho feels very very slim now when ME3 soon are coming.

Welcome back Jed. It is nice to see you posting again.
I too agree that decreasing the run size is a good thing. This helps retain the collector's value of the lithographs. For those of you wondering why they wouldn't release unsigned lithographs at the same size...well, without some kind of certificate of authenticity, there'd be a lot of forged low numbered lithographs floating around out there. It is a recipe for disaster that would steer any collector far far away as no one wants to buy something that is difficult to prove is the real deal. The minis have been a way in the past for people to catch certain lithos that they liked but didn't necessarily need a signature on. Without these safeguards and lower numbers, justifying a high price for these lithographs is very difficult.
@Tugga - I feel your pain. I'm still waiting on my Mordin litho that will never be made.

I will ask here to not creat another topic:
What about Dragon Age? Any news?
Specially DA:Origins, i wasn't around here when they were released, and also from what i've seen (correct me if im wrong) there was no character litho.
A simple DA:O Team litho like the ME2 (ME2 team missed the DLC charachters =/) one would be enough for me!
