antony micallef, by corblimeylimey on Sept 14, 2007 15:37:56 GMT 1, I surprised nobody has said they think a litho edition of 400 is overpriced at £1,175 $2000 was mentioned several weeks ago so I was expecting it to be around £1,000.
£1,175 is O.K. I guess, but for a run of 400 which are litho? or have Laz just doubled or quadrupled the run to have a similar effect on profit?
The top litho sheet fed presses can chuck out 300 sheets per minute, even at half that rate what about leaving the machine printing for another 5 minutes would produce an extra 750 copies.
What edition number is too high? 250, 500, 750, 1500? personally considering it's a litho I think for £1,175 there should have been less than 200 in the run.

antony micallef, by bobbymeachamjr on Sept 14, 2007 15:41:57 GMT 1, They got it all figured out - they concluded they can get £1,175 from all those people who "need" to have a micallef in their possession but can't afford the ones already out there. This is probably why these are so formulaic and using props ie. guns etc etc that would appeal to a certain younger/less affluent demographic

antony micallef, by corblimeylimey on Sept 14, 2007 15:44:22 GMT 1, Yep correct £1,880,000  only a fraction of which will be production costs. I surprised nobody has said they think a litho edition of 400 is overpriced at £1,175 I'll say it then CBL. How much was LV child originally? I think that was an edition of 400?
The original signed edition of LV Child was £40 for a run of only 35, later the run of 400 unsigned for charity sold at £35 and these are hand pulled screen prints, not banged out at up to 300 per minute.

antony micallef, by gbh on Sept 14, 2007 16:05:01 GMT 1, when considering the factors around this release (costs, run size, litho, etc.), it has really done nothing but increase the price I am willing to pay for a FF if I could get my hands on one.
FYI and for the record, I do actually like these latest images quite a bit as well.

Just noted the POW update, anybody get the feeling that something else might be coming out there (hopefully a bit darker!)

I was looking forward to these new prints more than christmas on my 11th birthday!! when I knew I was getting an action force army base.
oh well 
maybe its some social comment on the emerging foot and mouth?
Not to say Micallef's work is not amazing... it's just not doing it for me this time
