I can see the winning bidder complaining, " but the hand-drawn sketch I received isn't the one shown in the auction" :roll:

WOW all 50 sold out in about 12 hours!
I'm glad I didn't wait lol.
I was thinking that I might pick it up next month, or February when funds are not as tight.
Then I figured just buy it now, better safe then sorry lol.
At first I did not think it would sell out that quick.

Congrats to Stan & IDW, its' pretty cool that it sold out in only 12 hours.
Usagi is 35 years old and sales are still continuing strong.

Dear Kaimuki,

I’m glad you got one. It warms my heart that you got something special.

And I agree with you it is special for these to sell out less than one day. That shows it was priced correctly.

And while some will end up on eBay, IDW and Stan got paid.

Lastly, thanks again for your donations to the UYD charity raffle. We are going to ask Stan sign many of your items for the raffle. No doubt your contributions will help raise more money for The Heroes Initiative.

Peace, maka

I still have some things to send out to you but I'm waiting for the IDW Stan Sakai Character box to arrive from Kickstarter.

I assumed the books were in stock and foolishly paid for Priority Mail. :roll: Had I known the books wouldn't ship for a couple of weeks I would have just paid for Media Mail.

I asked this very question late last week and IDW's response was that they were waiting on some add ins before shipping which should commence with in the next week.

Is the actual book signed and numbered or is it just the piece of art?

The third bullet point says it's signed and numbered by Stan but you didn't post any pictures of the signature page

The only thing that's numbered is the sketch. The first page is only signed.
