Steve, I think You'll have enough material for an other calendar

Those are great. I especially like the one with Nilson and Hermy.

I call dibs! I don't remember Nilson wearing pig armor with the word oink on it. Is that an inside joke or is my mind just failing me?

[Mayhem]

I was out most of the weekend and really tired, and completely forgot about the auctions last night *doh*

If anyone here got the Usagi/Nilson piece than congrats, I would definitely have gone higher than the final price (some $560 w/ premium).

Imagine the auctions last night probably went for less than the other ones will go for because last night was internet only, whereas the one for the #21 cover et al mentioned at the start also have in person on floor bidding too.

[Gaffey]

It wasn't me. I was expecting it to be closer to $1000.

There was the previous mention set of four pieces sold just this evening, sadly it went beyond my current budget, even though it has been extended a little recently. Don't suppose any one here might have been lucky enough? I suspect the recent announcement for the crossover may have increased interest. Would have loved the Usagi in water piece, but it went more than I really wanted to spend ($2270), in fact that's probably the most a non-published piece has sold for perhaps...?

The Usagi in water was by far the best piece, but even if I had $2270 sitting around I don't think I could pull the trigger. I wonder if Stan ever buys back some of his older work?

Nope. I can't afford it.

Were the A/P prints the only prints Stan colored?

I think I remember somewhere hearing that Stan hand colored them himself and there were around 50 of them colored. Not sure. I own a non-colored one and have always wanted a colored one.

Might have to throw a bid in if it does not go too high!

[Mayhem]

Ah... well, I only own the b/w version of the Quiet Meal print also, so I may well throw a bid in too. Although I know roughly what it probably should be worth. Let the best man win (I suspect it won't be either of us though!).

[Gaffey]

I would think $500 to start. Break open those piggy banks!

[Mayhem]

I dunno, the coloured version of the Dragon print (available in b/w and colour like Quiet Meal) sold for under $200 (with BP), so it may not break the bank that much heh.
