BAST - TONY ROMA (ORANGE)

There are, apparently, over 260 Tony Roma rib joints in 35 different countries, but there's only 6 BAST 'Tony Roma (Orange)' worldwide, and they're all right here in London. And the first 6 people to book their place at the table on Friday 26th at 12 pm will get their sticky fingers on one of these prints.

We're scrapping the self-service buffet and introducing table service this week, running a new system to combat the menace of that strange breed of people who add prints to their cart with no intention of buying them, leaving those that do having to waste time refreshing the page, over and over again. So, here's how it works...

You simply register your intention to purchase by entering your email address at 12 pm tomorrow (Friday 26th February), and we reply to the first 6 entries with details on how to pay. You then have 1 hour to complete your purchase, failure to do so will mean you're kicked out of the queue and your print is offered to the next person in line. No more waiting behind the fat guy at the counter for you, dear patrons.

thats a beaut that, wonder what happened to the stripes on his right trainer? maybe they're a pair of adicolours..

love this.

Great print...really like it!

Bast also posted some new work on his blog: bastny.blogspot.com/

I like the method of release too....

Perhaps the first price excluded VAT?

Good method of release.

Should cut right down on the basket weirdos.

Nice image. One of his best. Too much cash though.

Shame I just couldn't quite justify the price, and wasn't sure about the yellow shirt, yellow writing and orange face clash.

There will be more colourways of this...... EDIT based on a hunch, nothing concrete! Sorry for misleading!

Thanks i feel better now, like the image, hope theres another colourway released. Maybe a grey or white face?

not sure about the orange painted under the face; would have preferred it to be screened flatter.

Have not been too keen on some recent releases.
But this one is gorgeous.
Was lucky enough to see the print in the flesh when I went to Laz last weekend.
It really does look smashing - there's a kind of effect on the edges of the paper, as though the paper was painted black, then painted white (dont know whether it actually has, or if this is part of the printing process), leaving some black edging down the side - looked superb.
Congrats to those that got them - I really dont think you will be disapointed.

? Laz doing its customers a favor ? since when did they not want you to sweat ?

Sorry but have to disagree with the method of selling or rather the suggestion that they are doing YOU a favour.

It is identical to the basket but allows them to hype an artist and place a subtle coercion that you can't bale on your request to purchase.

When or rather what is the cause of the price hike in BAST? OK he's associated with FAILE and is a very good artist but the price hike isn't market driven ...is it ?
