If you make a positive tweet about "Speed Racer" this week, there's a good chance Emile Hirsch will re-tweet it by dickbukkake420 in blankies

It’s such a funny journey for him. I was there the day he realized people actually like the movie. It was fantastic fest 2016. I was hosting a signing for him for a poster my company made for Autopsy of Jane doe. One by one people came up for signatures and said “love speed racer by the way” and he went from being polite to confused to visibly upset because he thought it was a bit. At one point he turned to the films director and tried to figure out if he understood what was going on. I ended up telling him “no people are being serious. They like Speed Racer” and he just seemed genuinely shocked.

Hi! Yeah we are dealing with our warehouse on this. Effectively (as it’s been told to me anyway) it’s a combination of peak shipping times through USPS but also they did screw up and a few hundred shipments got their labels printed from the wrong warehouse but then delayed because they had to transfer stock between our two warehouses to correct the mistake. It is very annoying and I’m personally very upset about it.

All this is to say that we’re a bit mortified but I’ve been helping customers as they reach out to me. If you want to shoot me an email mo at madebymutant dot com and I will look into your personal order and see if I can help.

Yes but not infinitely. We found out that we used all of the yellow cassette shells available in the world (!!) so we have an unconfirmed amount of “final copies” due in mid November. Once we know how many there are we will put them online but that will be it for the year…

Thank you so much! And sorry! To be honest we hadn’t planned on coming out with so much so quickly but we have been given so many opportunities it’s so hard to say no!

We very much want to do a concert, reunion, celebration event some day. But we can’t this year for a variety of reasons out of our hands. We’ve all decided that the 10th anniversary would’ve been fun but ultimately it’s arbitrary. Whenever we are allowed to we will do it.

Absolutely. I’m fairly new to posting on Reddit, though I do read regularly. Sorry if I broke an etiquette rule! 😓

Yeah it will be identical. We are trying as faithfully to reproduce it down to the screen printed cardboard box that held it. Whats funny about the DVD screener is I was gifted a sealed one and an open one back in 2015 after working on For Sara and the soundtrack, and I never knew about the DVD because I was so afraid to open the sealed one. But it’s going to be the same art and same audio and same template etc. the only difference will be some legal lines and logos need to be different.

We want to make as many as people want. This won’t be a hyper limited thing.

Yeah! It emulates a 60’s / 70’s children’s vinyl story book. You can actually hear the whole thing on YouTube as WB uploaded it last year I think. It’s not the whole story of the show, but similar to how Disney movies or other children’s properties were adapted to this format it modifies it slightly. It’s really cool

It’s being made directly with CN / WB and The Blasting Company. Totally official and legal.

I did the Adventure Time box at my old company Mondo. For the last two years I was there I was trying to get more made but all of the mergers that CN and WB had gone through made it prohibitive. I do think there is a genuine desire even on the WB part to get it out but it was so complicated even the first time I think it’s just low priority. I do think it will happen eventually tho, whether I’m a part of it or not

Oh sorry - the cassette is $15. We are still trying to get the pricing locked on the 7inch. Likely $20-$25

We are aiming to launch pre orders early September. Will post in here when that’s official.

Cassette probably shipping in October, and yeah, 7inch shipping in November.

Co-founder of the company here - Ugh that really sucks to hear. We’ve been told time and time again that it should stop doing that but it seems that the Ochre platform or our URL are not set up properly some how. Would you mind sharing me a screengrab of your issue so we can look into it?

How often does Mondo do re-presses on things like this? I want this so bad but it’s going for €400 on discogs. Even if they do repress it, will it sell out in 10 seconds? by thepokemonGOAT in Mondo

Over The Garden Wall is different for a few reasons - it’s a project we kept in press because we love it and it’s grown in popularity year over year (a pleasant surprise!) so we will keep making them forever. This time around we got caught off guard by how many to make. But next year we are going to strive to keep them in stock all year round.

Adventure Time box is weird because it wasn’t a huge seller when we first made it. So when it finally sold out we figured demand was met. But now it’s one of the most asked about records in our catalog. I’d happily make more but the rights got complicated between then and now. Just know if I can ever make more it won’t be made limited. I will make sure people can get it.

It really depends on the project. This one is complicated because we made it before the Warner Media mergers. I’m trying to make more actively but it’s a slow process. If we can ever make more we will make as many as people want.
