I'll start making a shopping list as usual ;)

But definitely in for the Stan/Walt virgin two pack, the TMNT #93 blue lines cover, Usagi sketchbook #16 and more...

What's the state of those of us who expressed an interest via the Dogu website in the serigraph print a few months back?

is there a dojo member going to sdcc who would be able to snake stuff for other dojo members?

(I’m guessing I’m not the only one who can’t make it?)

I’m in the uk, if that makes any odds?

I’m more than willing to pay upfront for what I’m after (and it’ll just be cool Stan swag I’m after!)

cheers!

Sure. Just shoot me a PM.

No problem. I just added you to the dual book order (on my variant ordering thread) and can grab you a litho as well.

Okay, I actually started compiling the list so I don't lose track of who's asked for stuff. I'm also happy to pick up non-Usagi stuff as well. For everyone that's asking me to pick things up, I'll PM you one week before the show (PM's will go out Wednesday the 10th, maybe Thursday the 11th) with a recap of what I have on my list for you. That way, if I've missed anything, you have plenty of time to correct me. You can still add things onto the list after that point and even during the show (I try to check in on the forum at least twice during the day each day), but for my convenience please try to get in as many requests before the actual start date. I do plan on attending all four days plus preview night.

I'm not sure how many specific details we'll have on Stan's items (pictures or pricing) ahead of time, but I'll make sure to take pictures of all the items at his table that haven't been shared yet and I'll create a shared Google Photo album and post the link in this thread after preview night (Wednesday the 17th), so keep an eye out for that.

I'll attempt to get enough copies of any UY promo items for everybody (it looks like there are tentative DH and IDW signings, so I'd guess DH will have The Hidden signing cards), so you don't need to request any of the UY promo items.

Dear Kyle,
Thank you once again for your generous offer to be point man at SDCC.
I would like to request a few items if you don't already have me down for them.
  • 1. I think you already have the Signing Tour Comic, correct? So that should be checked off already.
    2. Usagi Yojimbo & Ragnarok Two-Comic Variant Bundle – $20
    3. Usagi Yojimbo & Ragnarok Jam Piece Lithograph – $20
I will PM or Text you any non-Usagi items.
Michael, a.k.a., Maichan

Stan started a "What to Bring" thread... http://www.usagiyojimbo.com/forum3/view ... f=2&t=8780
Stan Sakai wrote:I'm bringing a lot less stuff than usual to San Diego, so if there is anything out of the ordinary that you would like me to bring let me know. If you have ordered everything through Kyle then not need to contact me as I will work with him.

I will not be at the booth as often as last year. I'm a special guest this time and I will be on a bunch of panels and doing a few signings elsewhere.

We will have new pins (including Jei--both regular and Chibi), prints (including the serigraph of UY 1 cover), and Sketchbook 16. As usual we will have a couple of portfolios of original drawings and covers. We will also have UY Book 33: The Hidden in tpbk and HC and the same with Saga 8. The Complete TMNT/Usagi just came out as a trade.

Daniel has been handling most merchandise, but let me know if you have any questions.

Oh yes, we expect Ruth will be there Saturday.
I would like to request any new pins that are issued, and probably a Sketchbook.

Since Stan won't be at the booth as much, I asked about signing or personalization of items in advance, and I also inquired about the serigraph.

Walter and I will be doing at least one joint signing at IDW. Friday 3-4:00 for sure. A good time to get both our signatures on the two variants and the print.

Okay, I sent out PMs (or text and Facebook messages) to everybody that's on my shopping list. If you didn't hear from me, then I don't have you on my list right now.

And just a reminder, I didn't put them on the list, but I'll be trying to get enough of the freebies for everyone I'm mailing out to (in both the SDCC shopping thread and the variant covers thread).
