UPDATE: The cut versions are sold out.
UPDATE: This poster is now for sale!
Yes, affirmative. My much anticipated Flight of the Conchords will go for sale Tuesday at noon (PST) at my online store.
The printing looks great and I am really digging the colored paper. All the little details came out great and super tight, with hairline registration locked in.
The posters are official and in a limited edition of 80. They are five color, hand screen printed, on 100 lb Steel Gray French Cover Paper. All posters are hand signed and numbered. They cost $25 each and can be found in my online store starting Tuesday at noon (PST).
These Flight of the Conchords posters are special from other posters I have done. ALL the costumes and props can be cut out and fitted onto their respective figures like a paper doll. this is great for the FOTC fan who is hands on. In order to hold everything together, I suggest using adhesive glue dots, the acid free variety that allows for re-use and repositioning, which can be purchased at most hobby/stationary stores.
It’s really hard to cut all these shapes out, so for an additional $12, I can ship you a poster that has the shapes perforated (cut in dotted lines, so it’s not fully cut out and stays in the poster), so you can just punch them out or keep it as a poster. There will be an option at my online store for the cut version. The cut version will only be available for a week and will be limited to 20 orders. Cut and uncut versions can be combined into one order. For cut versions, please allow 2 weeks for shipping.
Below is a video that shows how the laser precision cutting process works and how you can mix and match the figures and props.

Whoa, lasers! I think those are from the future. And the perfs…Dang, that’s awesome, the convenience makes it a must have. You’re on the cutting edge of gigposters! Get it? He.
But how will you ship the cut posters? Seems tricky.

Ha, I get it. Hey there Sundeep.
If people select the cut option, then the posters are perforated, but not fully cut. They stay together and behave like a normal poster until the buyer uses his/her hands to punch out the pieces.
Therefore, to answer your question, I plan to roll them and ship them in secured tubes, just like I would of any order order.

Only available for a week? I would be shocked if those 20 copies last a week.

See! I told you the cut versions wouldn’t last a week. This is something really unique and special.

Hi, I bought your poster at the Amsterdam show but comparing with your pictures I see now that your print is precise and the edges are even. The print and colours on my poster are uneven (http://www.flickr.com/photos/44189524@N05/4579083253/sizes/l/in/set-72157623869220529/). It’s still awesome, but If I wanted to cut out the shapes, it wouldn’t be the same. Have you heard about this problem from anyone else?
