Yeah, I know. I don't know that I trust RAH's statements on "accuracy"... He's made some questionable "accurate" choices in the past, so do with that what you will.
I figure an original first release 35mm IB Tech in good condition without VS would be upwards of 1-2k...
I've got a Fuji low-fade version from the mid-80s, but no guarantee as to the originality of the colors.
Yeah, I wouldn't be averse to a kick starter. Anyone heard from the contact, though? I sent him a message a few weeks ago or so and haven't heard back...
No time too early or too late - we still have shipping to Oz sometime in January or February to contend with... :)

No I didn't, but it's a reference to just after the Millennium Falcon blasts out of Cloud City before they jump to lightspeed to where Alderaan was in the OT.
Are you sure?

Is a faceplam like a facepalm?
*rimshot*
Seriously? Oh yeah, he was... :D
LOL - running joke from another thread!
Burn! Lol
Lol!
Yep - right on the money, Doombot. In order to save it from the cutter, Poita and I put in way more money from our own pocket than we had originally planned... :)
In any case, the print is saved and we should have some rough, preliminary reference material in the next week or two.
Down to $300 to go... Let's make it happen!
A $10 donation this morning leaves us at $355... Almost there - please don't let this print go to a cutter!
Hey, Frink, lay off. I'm up for Myspleen and torrents all at the same time, and we all know what you're into at the same time... lol
No, but seriously - wtf was he talking about?
New donation - $365 to go... :)
Send me a PM, either on here or over at AMPS to let me know how much you'd like to donate. I'll add that amount to the tally, and when the time comes, if we reach the goal, I'll get in contact with you to give you the Paypal info. :)
I don't think that's the same print, but I could be wrong...
Just got another $50 donation... :D
$385 to go!! This looks like we might be able to pull it off - we're almost there!
Got some more donations... Down to $435 to go. Come on - every little bit helps! :)
Just got a $15 donation. That puts us at $475 to go, if my math isn't wrong.
Here's the thread. Please help if you can - no amount is too small! We won't accept funds until we are sure we have the total amount, if that is worrying people... :)
Hell, I'll go far enough to say that if people want to pledge, I would be willing to pay them back once we have scanned the print.
Yep, that's what I meant. :(
Is that a "Really, how awesome!" or a "Really, that's all?"
