Default Pre-order Slipcase versus the Poster Print. Help!

I am about to order my Deluxe Edition Pre-order ( $14.95) and wanted to make sure that I get everything available for the cheapest price.

I was confused about the Poster Print, does it come free with the Deluxe Edition for those who pre-ordered, or is it a larger version of the slipcase that you need to buy separately, along with the full Tarot card set, buttons, and mug?

Also, I'm a little torn between the signed and unsigned versions. One way, the poster is completely unmarked, but the other way is that I have it signed which is amazing. How many bought/plan on buying the signed version?

Thanks for the help and opinions! (it's a lot to take in all at once)

Pre-orders get the Steve Purcell slipcase, whether they pay $15 for the extra goodies or not.

People who didn't pre-order get just the normal cover, or get the Steve Purcell cover with the $15 of extra stuff.

The poster print is a separate product altogether from both of these.

Ah, I see. Thank you. That clears that up. Now just to decide whether to get the signed or unsigned.

Oh, one more question. I noticed the Tales of Monkey Island Voodoo Card Set is under the Prints category in the shop.

Will that be shipped along with the Deluxe Edition with free shipping, or is that considered a "print" and not included with the free shipping or going toward the $50?

Last I checked, it was only the posters that didn't count. You can actually check, it will tell you the shipping price before you have to confirm the order.

Thank you both!

I'm all set, getting my Deluxe, two button sets, and the voodoo cards. I'll hold off on the poster until I decide which version to get.

Why in the world would someone pay 20 dollars for a poster that looks exactly like their DVD boxart

Is the slipcase signed?

Steve Purcell's DVD slipcase is just that - a DVD slipcase, the same size as a DVD.

The poster is much larger (like 50x70cm or something... I don't know the actual dimensions). So if you really love the artwork, the poster is much bigger.

There has been no mention of this, so I'd assume not. It is possible to buy signed copies of the poster print.

Or you could take your DVD to a convention that Steve Purcell is at and ask him to sign in there. (Assuming you can /get/ to a convention that Steve Purcell is at)

I still think the poster is not worth $20
Maybe $2, then I'd think about it

The print is $15. If you want, you can get it signed for $5.

I don't know what your standards for prints is. I don't think you can even find crap quality prints of extremely popular subjects for $2, let alone a print that's on nice paper, of a fairly niche property, and apparently signed by the artist, because you think the $20 print should be $2, a staggering 10% of the price every other print in the store has sold for. And they sold out at that price, too.

In most cases, posters are given free to fans

I paid for all my LucasArts adventure game art posters back when you could order them from the company. I think they were $10 each, and that was over 15 years ago.

There's a difference between a difference of opinion and being extremely negative and repetitive.

If you really want to discuss this further, PM me. This ain't worth a threadjack.
