Official limited Tomb Raider screenprints and giclees now live!

[amb6883]

Well this sucks. Though it does not surprise me. I stopped buying prints from them towards the end of the Mass Effect 2 print releases when they kept releasing more and more prints with higher and higher edition sizes and when the Mass Effect 3 prints were and no longer signed I called it quits and I did not really need that many Mass Effect prints.

Then this year they sucked me back in with lower edition sizes for Elder Scrolls, Fallout, and Tomb Raider, all franchises a like, but please if you are going to use the same art for different prints please release/inform of ALL the different mediums it will be released in at at the same time (I knew about the Spratt lithos but did not know it was an edition of 250 and was under the impression they were being scrapped). Also, glad that Treehouse is now doing metal prints but new art on those would have been welcomed. While releasing prints that are slightly different is technically not releasing the same print again it still hits the value and collectability of the original greatly.

There are not many options for licensed video game prints and I'll admit the quality over all of game prints kinda of sucks (the C&B prints are nice but pretty overpriced) and I would hate to stop collecting video game prints again because I can not trust the companies selling them. Seriously, they can not even get a timed edition right.

I have them both and the giclee is so much nicer. The lithograph feels to much like poster (because of paper quality, no white border and logo). The giclee feels like a proper art piece.

This is not my week. At all. Week starts off with having to get the AC Black Flag statue replaced several times (http://collectorsedition.org/forums/...&postcount=126) and now this...


Received the Chase giclee today. Or should I say picked up, as the priority mail poster tube was misrouted and out for delivery, yet never left the post office. I drove there to meet a supervisor to get the print, and the super thick poster tube was crushed. Print inside creased in several places and ruined. This is no fault at all of treehouse, this was mishandled by USPS. I opened the tube in front of the PO supervisor and they noted the damage being due to their error.


Pics:

At the USPS counter. This end of the tube was crushed so badly it permanently bent the plastic cap.

Yeah, not one thing has gone right this week when it comes to my orders. Every single thing that came was damaged. The Amazon issue was negligence, as the statues were damaged before they were even shipped to me. This new issue with USPS and the giclee was deliberate damage to the tube itself. No negligence on Treehouse's end whatsoever.

Edited my prior post with photos.

Hi guys,

I missed out the first time so I've gone for the Sam Spratt Lithograph and the Chase Giclee.

Ryan, please please please package these up nicely with a nice low number, and hopefully I don't get stung too much on import tax. Also made a note to seller when I paid by PayPal last night with the same message.

Many thanks,
Likey

Oooooooooo links? (Sorry if they're posted already, my phone is being weird)

[amb6883]

^Nope. Would have picked up Chase if she was a brunette though.

I didn't know the link either and just went to the first post of this thread.
