I decided to ask DCBS if they'd sell the variants for cover price if I purchased 50 copies of Usagi #1. Five copies at 50% off and forty-five copies at 35% off.

Their response was they do not offer the option to purchase a certain quantity of an item to receive the corresponding incentive variants. Now that's a mouthful.

I tried. :lol:

Was anyone able to get one of these posters?

I haven't had time to stop by my local shop, but I got a few at WonderCon.

Another Usagi related freebie to look for at the shop.

You could always buy one off of eBay if your shop doesn't carry them.

My local comic shop only received one of the posters and they promptly hung it on their wall after they got it.

I guess that means I am in need of one of Kyle's extras, if he would be kind enough to let me get one from him..... :D

I picked up some extras at WonderCon, so can cover the people who have asked me so far:

Maka
Maichan
Steve
Gaffey
Mayhem
Trevis

That leaves me a couple more, if anybody else needs one. Just an FYI, these are a lot cheaper quality than the ComicsPRO prints, so if you don't want to pay shipping for just this, I can hang onto them for you until the inevitable SDCC shopping and send it with that stuff. Or I can send it by itself. I'm fine with either.

There will also be a bunch of Retailer Exclusive covers. Many will be drawn by others, but I will do three or four. Even Julie is scheduled to do one for Daniel's Dogu company.

Thanks!

FYI: I just got back from the comic shop and there were no posters available. They didn't even have copies of Comic Shop News. But I can live without the CSN.

Anyway, did I mention how hot it is outside? :P

I haven't been in to my local comic shop for a while, but last time I asked they said they'd order 50 books to get all the variants, so I should be covered for one of each. The shop said IDW has a return policy, so the shop can return unsold issues if it comes down to that.
