These were offered via Kickstarter and Indiegogo for $50 USD and $20 USD respectively. First, I didn’t know you would bother running the exact same crowdfunding campaign simultaneously on two platforms, but it funded on both. So now you can get these from your local comic shop and pay a little more but save the shipping, which works for all of us outside the United States.
