Cool Borderlands kit there fella, Borderlands has to be one of my favourite gaming franchise.

Thanks again guys for all the nice words. Here's another quick update:

Lost Planet 3 promo poster:

ESO giclee. I believe this was designed by a fan:

Fallout giclee. This one actually looks great in person. It's certainly a beauty:

Rad Absorption perk shirt. It glows in the dark! lol :

]

Finally, the 25th anniversary Mega Man statue. I was debating on whether to actually pick this one up. I'm sure glad I choose to get it. It's a great looking little figure. The quality is pretty good too. It had some glue (presumably from production) all over it, but it cleaned up perfectly well. :

and it lights up!

That's about it for now guys. Take care eveyone.

Thanks Ingmar.

I also forgot to mention that I found my authentic GTA IV wanted poster and I compared it to the ones that I bought on eBay recently. Well, it's just like I thought. The ones that I bought from eBay are different than the real one that I have. The authentic example is of superior overall quality. On the authentic poster, the balcks are deeper, details are way sharper, the whole image is bigger, and the paper is slightly smaller. It looks to me like the seller simply photocopied the genuine posters. That's what they look like; photocopies. Of course, I have no way to prove that they're fake. All I can say with certainty, is that they're of inferior quality and are probably not real. I find it hard to believe that Rockstar would put out this poor a poster. For all I know though, they made these in all kinds of sizes and quality...

Here on the right you can see the genuine poster versus the cheaper poster on the left:

real poster on top, cheap poster on bottom:

^That sucks. Hope you can still file a claim.

Great update mortal

That lost planet poster is great

Sad to hear about the GTA poster

Was the original perforated at the top as if it came out of a book of them?

I can actually tell you that the real posters came out of a pad that had a ton of posters in it. The posters had to be torn out of the pad, kind of how you describe there. I know this because I received my poster directly from a Rockstar rep, and I saw the pad with my own eyes, and I saw him rip the poster out of the pad for me. There are no real perforations on the poster though; none that I can see anyway. I do recall that the pad had all four of the posters in it; but I could be wrong; it was so long ago...
The posters did have to be removed from the top like you describe; I do remember that for sure.

Ah ok

I remember you describing it before hence why I wondered if there were perforations

It's unfortunate that it's likely fake

Final Fantasy fabric poster is nice btw

I can't file a claim now. It's too late.
This is the seller by the way: http://myworld.ebay.com/pexpexsquare...:X:RTQ:US:1181
Stay away from that guy.

I also forgot to add this piece to my last update:

I believe this was a gift for people that bought the game. Not sure if it was a pre-order bonus. It's a fabric banner or poster or whatever you wanna call it, lol. Whatever it is, it's nice.

I saw the FFXIV cloth poster on eBay and really liked it but unsure if I really wanted it, how big is it?
