Yo Goon Backers!

As most of you are aware, we've sent out emails confirming some of your survey details. These are not summaries of your donation rewards. (so if you don't see anything about a poster, pitchbook, etc. listed, DON'T WORRY!) This email is ONLY to confirm shipping information for the comic book, t-shirt size/gender, and the production painting print selection. (IF your donation level qualifies)

Great news... the print editions of the exclusive Goon Kickstarter comic are done and will be shipping soon! They'll be shipping DIRECT from Dark Horse publishing so the shipment will NOT include your t-shirt, posters, etc. (if you ordered them) But never fear, we're hard at work on getting everything autographed by the Goon high council and we'll be fulfilling the rest of the kickstarter swag soon! Stay tuned!!

Here's a pic of the Kickstarter Exclusive comic... get those apocalypse-grade mylar comic book bags ready!!

$100 Goon 11"x17" Production Painting Print: Awaiting proofs from the manufacturer
$150 Goon Kickstarter Special Edition Movie Poster: AT THE PRINTERS/CURRENTLY TRYING TO SCHEDULE FINCHER/POWELL/BLUR FOR SIGNING (which ain't easy... Eric's been in Italy sipping tiny coffees and giving Americans a bad name)
$250 Goon Movie Poster Combo Deal: (same status as $150 reward)
$300 Goon Production Paintings (full set): Awaiting proofs from the manufacturer
$500 Goon Movie Pitchbook (print version): Awaiting proofs from the manufacturer/scheduling autographing time with Fincher/Powell/Blur

$2000 Goon Original Character Art: Eric has your requests and he's working through 'em!

Hope this helps, Goon Backers! Also, we've received quite a few inquiries about the PRINT SIZE of the movie poster. We can now confirm it's a standard 24" x 36"! Also, we're investigating the possibility of shipping them to you mounted/framed (for an additional charge, and only if you're interested) Here's a sneak peek at the poster proofs... they're looking great!
