Thanksgiving with MOTU!!

I had this book for less than 24 hours. I didn't take time to take pictures. I took my time to do what I needed to do with it and sent it on its way. It's obvious this book has been through more than 20 people before it came to me and I'm interested to see just what shape it'll be in when it completes its journey. When this book was announced all I wanted was a chance to hold it and see it because I knew there was no way I'd be getting it due to the limited printing and because of it being a Comic Con exclusive. I must give thanks where its appropriate: thanks for Frogster for getting the book to me, thanks to Super He-Man for keeping the book going after I sent it to him and most importantly thanks to Josh Van Pelt for sticking his neck (money) and his trust out to us who signed up for the loan program. Of course, everyone who has participated and adhered to the agreement to keep the book moving and not being too greedy about it deserves credit for this as well.

To me this movement right here shows Mattel and everyone else involved in making this book that the 1,000 copy run on an SDCC exclusive and the lack of enforcement for a purchase limit on this sought after piece was utterly ridiculous. I'm sure I'm not alone in questioning and not completely understanding what kind of legal implications could put such a restriction on a book's printing. We all know that answer will never be straightfoward and as honest as we'd like it to be. Maybe when it comes time again for something like this to come up, they'll treat us devoted fans right.

We might get 2,000 copies. LOL
