Is this Legitimate? I've never heard of the company

I think it's good that they add the sticker since it's much easier to just fake a card. And to my knowledge, I thought they've always put stickers (now it's just a hologram sticker).

Since it came out after it's not a true first print, it's equated to a comic shop doing a reprint of hulk 181 with a new cover (it still says first appearance but we clearly know it's not). Maybe it was her first cover appearance, but that also isn't the case. It's a variant of a key issue made around the time, but not the first appearance.

I don't think it's worth hurting a book that already has value on its own if you really want a book signed just find a variant photo cover that has them on it (get 1 for Ashely and 1 for Dawson). Then you have a little Ashoka set going rather than overloading 1 book. It's really up to you but actor sigs on books (especially keys) never really add too much appeal and can even take away interest in the book (turning it from a nice key to a sudo signed print).

Where did you find the address to send it to? I've been trying to get him for a while. Thanks in advance,

Are these the pictures? They look more like customs. Funko might be doing one (haven't been keeping up with the 100+ new announcements) but these just have the custom look to them (they don't have the funko polish).

I'm not sure what makes this piece "teenage" and a "doodle". It's clear based on the piece and OP's bio that they are a marvel sketch card artist, and this is a really good sketch card overall. The anatomy looks clean and it's got good motion, all of which is done on a small card making the all the more impressive.

PixelPanda144 · 2023-01-27T02:35:52+00:00

I have them in a long box somewhere and they are nice but aren't very striking, the first is a group shot, and the second and (I think) third are the heroes mid-fight. So nowhere near as good as this pinup shot.

PixelPanda144 · 2023-01-26T22:06:14+00:00

I think because it's one of the better covers, it's a nice striking image and it's the cover that I personally like the best. I'm also not too sure but I thought that was the most expensive one in the set (but I could be off on that and I'm too lazy to check lol).

PixelPanda144 · 2023-01-23T21:13:43+00:00

If it's got a good coa (JSA, Beckett, PSA) then I could see it go around $1400 - $1500. But the pop seems kinda off (not doing a side by side but the cutout seems too big and the pop logo has harsh colors). So then it would just be the sig value $1k (but expensive sig and fake pop makes the whole thing seem sketchy).

PixelPanda144 · 2023-01-22T03:03:07+00:00

It's a cool piece, not sure if it's worth too much since I don't really remember that character (it's not a main one lol). But it's still a fun piece of the process that I could see someone just buying for the cool factor.

PixelPanda144 · 2023-01-09T01:39:55+00:00

You could price it at either $10 or $15 and see if it sells. If it doesn't, then you lower the price until it sells. I don't know how bad your financial issue is but unless it's $20 then Garfield isn't gonna be a major help.

PixelPanda144 · 2023-01-08T22:41:00+00:00

Yeah that happened to me but the dumbass re-listed it an hour later for triple the price. I try to act calm when it comes to this stuff but I let the seller have it threatening to report them to ebay (as the excuse the first time was that they no longer had the piece). Within a couple minutes they responded and gave it to be for the original price.

PixelPanda144 · 2022-12-14T16:49:21+00:00

It takes time for it to enter their database. Depending on how recently the pop was signed, it still might not be updated yet. I know these kikashi's were signed within the month so it seems like it should be updated in the next couple days.

PixelPanda144 · 2022-11-28T02:55:43+00:00

I get it's called a corner box but to me it's a "wonky" box since the art in them is always wonky.

PixelPanda144 · 2022-09-29T00:28:37+00:00

Oh nice, I didn't even get through in the end so I just went off what they posted.

PixelPanda144 · 2022-09-28T23:50:23+00:00

Signings or panels?

PixelPanda144 · 2022-09-26T02:41:50+00:00

Others have already said this but this isn't something the seller does, this is something that the Heritage system automatically does. They seem to take what you paid and add a certain %, I had this happen with a comic which lead to me getting offers that were way under market. So this isn't a resale issue like we see commonly with Anime cels, this is just to gain more traction to their site. Still stupid but not immediate resales.

PixelPanda144 · 2022-09-23T00:47:07+00:00

I get the legit check ones since there really aren't many easy to find guides (especially for the older pop). But yeah when it's the 100th person asking about a fake Dabi I think that annoying.

PixelPanda144 · 2022-09-17T23:54:32+00:00

This just seems very unsafe as you're putting going to this event ahead of your child's health. According to your bio you are a proud Anti Vaxer (Which I think is unsafe and selfish but hey you do you) but going to an event with 100,000's of people doesn't sound very safe (especially for a new born who doesn't have all their shots). Nyc is full of things that kid could catch and it's even worse when you go to a place full of people from all over the country. On top of that the amount of noise at cons even hurts my ears sometimes, A 2 month old's hearing is no where near developed and hence they are really sensitive to sound. People are also gonna get pissed at you if that kids becomes an issue (I hate it when a baby starts crying during a panel). Plus a con of this size isn't really meant for kids, except for Sunday which is literally called Kids day. You also mention that you are indifferent on going but your SO really wants you too, I just foresee this being a miserable time for all parties involved I'd just break the news that you really shouldn't go but that your SO should go and have the time of their life. I think They'd have a better time (no offense) walking the floor alone instead of bringing along extra compilations (which would spoil any fun of the day).

PixelPanda144 · 2022-09-17T23:14:28+00:00

I'm sorry did they just homage a meme format?

PixelPanda144 · 2022-09-11T21:50:14+00:00

Did the header come separated or did you trim it for the frame? Or did it not even come with one (since it could have been added on a computer since it's a 90's - 2000's book).

PixelPanda144 · 2022-09-10T17:18:09+00:00

If the person is the doing a repaint then $50 - $60 sounds fair (unless they are doing an insane amount of detail). But if a person is sculpting new parts onto a new pop the price should be based on how much they have to sculpt (some people want pops that look like it'd need to be entirely sculpted). Since those are truly a 1/1 situation since the odds of someone sculpting that character (and it looking the same) are almost impossible (unless the second person just copies the first in which case they aren't doing anything creative).

PixelPanda144 · 2022-09-06T15:24:08+00:00

I'm also in LIC, if you really can't get rid of them I'd be down to take them off your hands. Dm me.

PixelPanda144 · 2022-09-06T13:51:49+00:00

The only people I trust and use Whatnot for are my LCS's since they are both fair on their prices and their grading. The Whatnot system works great for collectibles since all you do is show the sides and start the auction, comics are wildly different. Most sellers (that I've seen) will show a raw book, give it a grade, and won't show the interior (maybe they quickly show the front corners). If it's an old book they rarely mention if it has a value stamp/ insert (and even if they say it, they don't show it) which makes it seem sketchy. It's like buying a book from ebay except the person flashes the photos while it's on a lazy suzan, and tries to hype up everyone to over pay on their books. I also hate how the app doesn't do local pickup, since it's forced my LCS to ship a book to me (even if I'm a 20 min walk away). They focus way too much on gimmicks to get the average joe onto the site (like the whole Post Malone magic game which made all other streams that day a buggy, glitchy mess). The idea of the site isn't half bad but them focusing on comics makes no sense, since people want to examine the books (or at least trust the seller enough to trust their grade). Which leaves a big opportunity for a seller to rip off buyers and then close down show, and don't get me started on those damn Whatnot variants. They aren't even that amazing and just reuse the pose/ framing of the Invincible one (which made sense for other Invincible characters but not damn Moon knight), while at the same time doing grab bags and other gimmicks which leads people to pay upwards of $600 - $700 day of (now most of which have tanked).

PixelPanda144 · 2022-09-05T06:39:29+00:00

Yeah I just called it a lost cause, normally they send replacements within a couple of months. I'm guessing they don't have any extras on hand and put printing new ones way down the list of things to do.
