TRS Posted June 4, 2021 Posted June 4, 2021 (edited) I found this old 2-paged ad from a magazine: Edited June 27, 2022 by TRS 2
Laserschwert Posted June 4, 2021 Posted June 4, 2021 (edited) Oh, nice logo-less version of the artwork. Any chance for a scan? Or which issue of which magazine it's from? Edited June 4, 2021 by Laserschwert 1
TRS Posted June 9, 2021 Posted June 9, 2021 yes it's a great ad. Let me check - I'm quite sure I can give you a scan of it. 🙂 1

UPDATE: The seller offered a second one that has just sold for $630: https://www.ebay.com/itm/284331013055 I guess there were a lot of people who missed the first shirt and then tried to get the second one.
Scummbuddy Posted June 21, 2021 Posted June 21, 2021 Yeah, I thought my bid was going to be large enough to secure it. And my plan was just buy it, properly scan the art, and then resell this one shirt. Not this time it seems.

You have to squint to make it out, but there's the "For a good time, call Edna" graffiti on the shower wall, and Ed's dialog about Fred having not "eaten" in years. Good find! 1
Scummbuddy Posted June 22, 2021 Posted June 22, 2021 Just a heads up: the Max plushie from uncute.com is back in stock. Don't pay the $250 for one on eBay. https://www.uncute.com/collections/everything-else/products/sam-and-max-stuffed-toy 3
Thrik Posted June 26, 2021 Posted June 26, 2021 Very quickly — I checked several hours after that post and they were already gone. A very hot commodity it seems! 1
Huz Posted June 28, 2021 Posted June 28, 2021 There's a big gap in the market for a low quality knockoff stuffed with medical waste. Just putting it out there. 1 1
Scummbuddy Posted June 29, 2021 Posted June 29, 2021 If you missed out on a Max stuffed animal I would suggest you consider waiting for another run of them instead of these exorbitant prices on eBay. 1
Jake Posted June 30, 2021 Posted June 30, 2021 Yeah based on Twitter, it seems uncute is expecting a restock in the fall. 3
Lagomorph01 Posted June 30, 2021 Posted June 30, 2021 I’ve wanted one of those for a long time, bit the shipping is what kills it for me, just like with the Limited Run Monkey Island box. Why does worldwide shipping have to be so expensive? 😩
QueZTone Posted August 20, 2021 Posted August 20, 2021 (edited) Figured I'd run an update set of photos since I finally unboxed my games. Also, fellow forum visitor created awesome custom Special edition MI en Tales boxes. Also, Defenders of Dynatron. Edited August 20, 2021 by QueZTone 5 1
Laserschwert Posted August 20, 2021 Posted August 20, 2021 Custom MI:SE box? I wanna say "Hold my grog", but it will have to wait for just a liiittle while longer.
Scummbuddy Posted August 20, 2021 Posted August 20, 2021 (edited) Yeah, I want to know more about these Special Edition boxes for 1-2, and Tales. I was looking to make a special slipcover for the Tales treasure chest box release, but I'm curious about these. Please, do go on... And @Laserschwert , you tease!

Leandro made them using scans and probably Laserschwaert magic. I think he lurks the forums. Here is some photos. 1 1
QueZTone Posted August 21, 2021 Posted August 21, 2021 (edited) he makes some really high quality boxes that feel like the real thing, brand new! Edited August 21, 2021 by QueZTone 1 1

Laserschwert Posted September 3, 2021 Posted September 3, 2021 (edited) Here we go: So, this was basically a crowd-funded project a friend of mine and me did with a few collectors (only 30 boxes got produced). I did all the designs and layouts, aside from the map (which was drawn by the wonderful Cristina Urdiales, which I then digitally "aged" for the print). Also, the great CanvasQuest helped me to get the enamel pin produced, and you'll soon find it in his store as well. All the other artworks used are obviously not mine, but sourced from all over the Special Editions. Edited September 3, 2021 by Laserschwert 5
Sopabuena Posted September 3, 2021 Posted September 3, 2021 Really cool! I missed this, it was probably in closed groups to avoid any legal trouble. Is it still possible to get this? If not, are you planning on sharing the files for us to print our own?
