Cool! Thanks Steve. Going to place an order right now!

EDIT: I ordered 3, so I'll have two extras for Dojo members if required.

Ah! I had checked their site and Facebook just a day or two ago and it wasn't up yet. I was looking for the cover so I could update the wikia page (http://usagistudios.wikia.com/wiki/Teen ... gi_Yojimbo) but no details had emerged yet. Thanks for sharing!

So far we've seen six of the ten different covers completed (with titles in place and all), with sneak previews of the Sakai Signature Edition and Kevin Eastman's two other covers. The only one that most of us haven't seen yet (I hear a couple people got a preview 8)), is the Sergio cover.

hey guys, wanted to ask, is it clear that all variant covers or illustrations will be collected in the hardcover version?
I am in love with that beautiful painting sensei did of the four turtles and usagi at the top that he shared on fb..it is such a beautiful shot I think.would be sweet to get to have that..

It looks like the Other Realms version will be the rarest of them all. A print run of 500 is pretty low.

I think Stan said all the covers will be in the hardcover.

The only one that may not be in the HC book might be a Kevin Eastman b/w variant of a color variant. I am not sure if this b/w one will actually be published as a cover, though.

The print run for the Sakai comic variant is 250. We would have ordered more, but...well some of you have seen how much stuff we already have in the basement.

Have you ever considered putting your basement stuff on StanSakai.com?

Neat! So, is this what they're calling the "Sakai Signature Variant" (as seen here: http://usagiyojimbo.com/forum3/viewtopi ... =14&t=8192)?
250 seems like it will sell out fast. Hopefully you'll be able to give the Dojo an early head's up so we can get our orders in on StanSakai.com... :roll:

250 each of hardcover and softcover, or 250 total?

500 for Other Realms huh? I wonder what the print run for the Diamond lunch will be, I imagine 500 or 1000.

Thanks for keeping the wikia page updated Kyle!!

No, that will be available either from IDW or Kevin at SDCC. The Diamond variant is #7 in your list.

If I have something wrong, let me know & I'll try to edit & correct it. Jabba, Stan, Steve, ... anyone, your input is welcomed.... :wink:
Rearranged it a bit for ya. The Kevin Eastman covers aren't totally clear, as #9 is potentially a SDCC Diamond exclusive, whereas #7 is either a SDCC IDW exclusive, or a retailer incentive cover, or a retailer sub cover, or maybe something else entirely.
