The BUY list (second edition) -

***Nate*** · #91 06-02-2009, 05:40 PM

If you have the money spare, now might be the best time to go. Jewellers will probably be desperate for the work.

Just bought the artbook, it should be here in a couple of days. Hope its worth the 89$ I spent on it. I find it hilarious that a used hardcover on amazon costs more then a new one on there.

OddjobAbe · #93 06-10-2009, 12:47 PM

I find it irritating and wrong. There's a chance that they payed more for it than you did your new copy, but wanting so much for it pre-owned is just being terribly greedy.

The pre owned on there costs even more then a limited edition off the site, 180$ some.

Unbelievable, isn't it?

Hey guys...Im new to these forums but im a huge fan of oddworld games! I've got Oddysee and Exoddus on both PC and PS1. unfortunately I don't have an xbox so I can't get Munch's Oddysee o Strangers Wrath but I would love to get them.

Today I ordered The Art of Oddworld Inhabitants: the first ten years off Ballistic Publishing!! Should be mad! Can't wait till its here although because they have run out of softcover versions I had to order the Hard Cover one for $70. But it will still be awesome!

OddjobAbe · #97 07-17-2009, 07:15 AM

Congratulations.

First Ten Years book says that that Abe model you got there is a rogue German model that OWI threatened to sew if they didnt desist with production =. aren't the ynice!

I have a hard back copy worth £175 =D

Unfortunately, this is way out of my price range at the moment so seeings as I won't be bidding I may as well post it here.

On Ebay I found one of the models of a Scrab from the old OWI offices.

Folks might be interested in what I just found online: a whole bunch of Stranger's Wrath posters, of various sizes.

These are just images printed out. Bad, bad show.
And yes, I know that's all a poster generally is.

Bullet Magnet · #**102** 10-05-2009, 12:51 PM

Does "canvas" actually mean "printed on canvas"?

EDIT: never mind. Nothing could be that straightforward.

Well, the A4 and A3 ones are going fairly cheap. I've just ordered one, so when it arrives I'll let you guys know if they're worth it or not.

EDIT: Oh, and the seller's got a very good rating. If the posters were bad quality, that wouldn't happen, right?

So... does it?

Bullet Magnet · #**105** 10-05-2009, 12:58 PM

Wait... wait... some of them actually are printed on "Ultra High Quality Waterproof Canvas Material"

Just wish I knew the resolution.

***Nate*** · #**106** 10-05-2009, 06:05 PM

When did Amazon become Ebay?

Fuzzle Guy · #**107** 10-05-2009, 11:26 PM

They would, clearly, make such a wonderful addition to anyone's kitchen...

Manco · #**108** 10-09-2009, 08:55 AM

Okay, poster arrived today. It's definitely better quality than I expected, and I'm happy with it. There is some pixellation, but you have to lean in pretty close to spot it - from a distance, the quality is great.
I took some pictures so people can see. The lighting and photo quality aren't great, but they get the point across. Note the close-up photo was taken from about a centimetre or two away.
That said, this is only the A3 version. No idea what the A2 and A1 will be like quality-wise...

OddjobAbe · #**109** 10-10-2009, 07:57 AM

I'll kill anyone who buys the last A3 Stranger's Wrath poster. It's in my "basket", waiting for my nephew's birthday next month.

Josh · #**110** 10-10-2009, 08:04 AM

I'm buying the A1 80x50 cm one. Hands off.

OddjobAbe · #**111** 10-10-2009, 08:08 AM

Actually, I might get him the A3 battlestone poster. Be wary. If it isn't ordered in a fortnight, feel free to buy it.

Manco · #**112** 10-10-2009, 08:44 AM

I don't think it's a buy-once-and-it's gone kind of deal - the one I bought is already back in stock.

I think I might buy the A1 Battlezone poster; I always loved that scene.

***Nate*** · #**113** 10-10-2009, 06:42 PM

Surely all this is in the same category as the Abe sculpture that we've been discouraging people from buying because it's essentially stealing IP from OWI?

Fuzzle Guy · #**114** 10-10-2009, 07:37 PM

This is even worse. At least the Abe sculpture was a work of art. Someone went out of their way to make a statue which had to be crafted to begin with.

This is just a photograph stolen from OWI and printed onto a canvas for money.

OddjobAbe · #**115** 10-12-2009, 11:11 AM

Looking again, I don't think either of us will give a shit. He's been talking about Abe, and it sounds like that he prefers that to Stranger. If anyone sees a cheap PlayStation on Amazon that they don't want, tell me. It will be better for him to have something he can play the games on.

Josh · #**116** 10-12-2009, 11:13 AM

PS1 or PS2?

OddjobAbe · #**117** 10-12-2009, 11:18 AM

PS2. I'm keeping my eye out, but if one cheaper than £45 comes up, please message me.

Josh · #**118** 10-12-2009, 11:20 AM

That okay?

OddjobAbe · #**119** 10-12-2009, 11:22 AM

Shit, I didn't notice that. Thank you!

Josh · #**120** 10-14-2009, 07:51 AM

My SW poster arrived! It hangs by my bed. :P
