1-mine for the regular edition
2-mine for the HC edition
3-David Petersen
4-Sergio Aragones
5-Kevin Eastman fan club edition
6-Kevin Eastman San Diego Con Exclusive
7-Books-a-Million variant (by me)
8-Other Realms variant (by me)
Will there be significant differences in the cover art for the regular edition, the Books-a-Million variant and the Other Realms variant?
(i.e. new artwork for each cover)

I'd imagine it's eight completely different covers.

Remember--all these will be reprinted in the HC edition (I think. We're still trying to figure out what extras will be included).

I think IDW may be doing a giveaway poster (not sure yet)
Daniel got permission from Nickelodeon to do a limited edition print of a cover


Playmate Toys will have a Comic Con Exclusive action figure (I think with 2 interchangeable heads)
We are hoping to have a Sakai Exclusive figure that will be available through the website, probably in the fall
I can't wait to see the figures! Interchangeable heads sounds cool.
I hope the Comic Con one isn't too hard to get.

Wow! All sorts of great things coming up! I put in an order for the first four covers on the list at my local comic book shop earlier this week, but will have to track down the rest. The Eastman Comic Con exclusive won't be a problem since I plan on being there.

Comic Con exclusive action figures are generally hard to acquire, but the Usagi sounds like it'll be worth the effort of trying to get.

It's fun to have so many new Usagi collectables offered this summer. I don't know if I will get them all but it is nice to have options! Most of all, I'm looking forward to the new UY/TMNT story! Peace, maka

Any chance you'll have copies of the last two for people to get direct from you, especially if they are not in the US? ;)

(aka asking Kyle nicely to collect them on my behalf at SDCC!)
I should be getting a few copies of each, maybe a dozen.

Kevin was here and just left. I inked Usagi over his pencil on his three variant covers.

So is there a mystery third Kevin Eastman cover that will be available?

Orrrrrrrrrrrr... I'm already a member because I collect every TMNT, and there's no limit to how many copies of an issue you can order from the store. Kyle has already asked for a copy. I certainly don't mind ordering some extra copies, I just have to work out if I can ship them perhaps to Kyle instead of them coming all the way here first heh, and then having to be sent all the way back to the US!

Unless someone in the US on the Dojo is also already a member...?

Well, I would like to get in on that train, if possible. Sign me up for one issue, please. Thanks Mayhem!

Add another variant cover to the list. I will be doing a Sakai Exclusive variant both in regular and HC. They will both have the same image, and it will, hopefully, also be a pin-up in the regular HC edition. I will not have the Sakai HC variant at San Diego, though.

Daniel will have most of the items on the StanSakai website after the con. There are a few things we are contractually prohibited from selling.
