Got these over the weekend:

Gwendy's is a 3rd printing (for all of you completists out there, notice the red banner at the top of the dust jacket). Found the Funko of Bill, now I just need Beverly and Ben to have the full set. The model of Christine is molded with red plastic, so I guess one doesn't even need to paint it. I'm not even going to open the box.

What does the red ribbon say? Sorry I can't see it enough to read it.

I thought I already had a 2nd printing but discovered yesterday that I don't, so I'll have to go back and grab one. There were also 1st printings in the pile at Barnes & Nobles.
I will have to see if I can find a second printing. I have a first.Maybe this weekend or soon I can take a trip to Barnes and Noble and see if ours has one.

Hey guys, do you know a website called Fright Rags? They specialise in horror-themed items t-shirts, hoodies, etc. I just saw an ad on their FB page stating they'll be offering officially licenced SK themed t-shirts featuring the cover artwork of some of his classic novels (Skeleton Crew, Dark Half, et al). The items will be available for pre-order from Wednesday.

You can Google the site, as I think there are rules here about posting links. Heck, I don't know if I'm already in trouble for mentioning this, but they did say it was officially licenced merchandise, so I figured some of you would be interested.

I don't know if it's legit or not as Stephen wouldn't be the one to authorize it. He does not own any of the artwork so permission to use covers would have had to come from the publishers/artists. They're crediting the artists so chances are they did get permission but that's just a guess on my part.

It looked pretty legit to me, though the only king things for sale were Misery related
I'm tagging Marsha so she can make sure there is no copyright issues.

It would not be the first nor the last time that someone has tried to sell Stephen King-related merchandise without having secured permission so this is SOP to alert me in case further action needs to be taken. Wayoftheredpanda Dana Jean is just doing her job as a moderator by letting me know as I might not have otherwise read the post.
