luke314pi Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Hey guys, I just heard from DST and IDW, and since we are ordering 800 copies of Battle Beasts #1, they are going to make an exclusive cover for our store! It will be a black & white inked cover, and it will feature the Luke's Toy Store logo in the corner. We are very excited for this opportunity! In order to qualify for this exclusive, all 800 copies that we ordered will have this exclusive cover, and we will not be receiving any of the standard or variant covers. And the order deadline has passed, so these are the only copies of BB #1 that we will be receiving. So everyone who ordered a Stealth Vorin from me will receive 25 copies of the LTS exclusive comic. If anyone was really looking forward to the standard and variant covers, and would like to cancel their order with me, I will understand. In addition, if anyone would like to leave part of their 25 comics with us, we would like to use this opportunity to attract some new customers and help our store grow. Even as few as 5 of the 25 comics would help us out. We would really appreciate it. Thanks! (I decided to make this a new topic so it wouldn't get lost in the BB discussions) EDIT: Cover revealed on page 3! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Wow, that is awesome, Luke!!! You can keep 25 of the comics I ordered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 So, is this your first 'official' exclusive product (not including items you have produced)? That's amazing. And you can put me down for only needing 5 of the comics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delta chameleon Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Luke, that's amazing! That is very exciting. You'll have your own exclusive cover. Congrats! Really looking forward to getting these in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 So, will the logo have your face on it as some kind of animal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyd Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Very cool, Luke. Congrats on getting your own exclusive. And I agree with Groundhog - you are going to get to be some kind of animal, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Geohound Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Holy shit, that's so cool. I think it's even better this way. Only 800 copies of a cover in existence and most of them going to us? That's actually pretty amazing. Now I'm a little more inclined to be excited about having a mess of these all over my house. Way to go Luke.

luke314pi Posted May 30, 2012 Author Share Posted May 30, 2012 Yes this is our first official exclusive, and it was completely unexpected. And I will be subtly hidden inside of the Luke's Toy Store logo. Thanks yb and groundhog! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

b00sted Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 (edited) This is awesome! I am now going to have to find the variant elsewhere tho but this is still really awesome. Luke are you planing on having the rest of the mini series too? I would not mind picking them all up right from you.. EDIT: noob time.. anyone know where I can order the Variant's online at by chance? Edited May 30, 2012 by b00sted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is possible that we might carry the other issues in the series, or maybe some trades later on, but we aren't sure yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really hope I can score the variants, thanks for the link. looks like #2 has some sort of incentive also.. wonder if it is only a variant cover? http://www.mailordercomics.com/catalogsearch/advanced/result/?name=battle+beasts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Geohound Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 That's usually where I get all my variant covers of stuff from, well the ones I can't find in actual stores anyways. They should pop up the issue one stuff around when it comes out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karamazov80 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 (edited) I'm actually more interested in having a copy of this comic than in having the Minimate Congrats, Luke! Edited May 30, 2012 by karamazov80 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screamfleet Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Haha, this is pretty funny to me. I know things are all connected with the internet, and the exclusive promotion. I just imagine though like "geez....this guy is ordering a bunch of comics! We should do something unique for him!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
