I'm starting to really like this print. The drawing of the house has that kind of child-like quality that kind of humanizes the barracks, which is kind of how we were introduced to them - just a bunch of friendly folks living together - OH WAIT IT'S THE OTHERS.

Anonymous said...

I'm LOST - where are you guys seeing the print?

reAnimated said...

@Claire, it was! I was pretty stoked. Wish I were back there again. :(

maven said...

This poster really doesn't say LOST to me! I thought it was just a poster of a house until I read the title! LOL Not a WCM at all.

MeSoCrazy said...

Sayid'sgirl your post is classic. I'm sorry but it made me laugh out loud.

Anonymous said...

Nate Duval is a class act. I bet this print looks much better in person.

Michael H said...

If this is legit, it's not one of Duval's better works. I'm still skeptical.

Jeremy said...

technology confirms this is a valid site for this promotion

feel_the_insanity said...

Don't go for it if you don't want it...I don't think I will.

bonesaw said...

This poster is so bad, I bet it will take at LEAST 40 seconds to sell out.

Anonymous said...

Jesus, this is confusing. Real or fake???

The Bench Coach said...

Hmmm...maybe this print gets better if we "look closely..."

brian g said...

i think its pretty sweet actually.

Capcom said...

LOL Christopher.

maven said...

I'm trying to get a reply to how the URL was revealed...no one's answered me yet.

Michael H said...

Too bad. Not anything to get excited about here.

Lisa-Maladylis said...

I hope it's not going to just sit there for two hours before we can buy, I like it !

Capcom said...

How can you look closely if it won't enlarge?!

Nachosaur said...

Probably on a ping-pong ball.


"Look closely..."

Anonymous said...

I'm going to do the right thing and NOT buy it since I like it.

Jeremy said...

no for real.. i've done the dirty work for you guys... this site points to the same server as the rest of the URLS.

maven said...

Apparently it was on a video?

Anonymous said...

How can we check Jeremy...

Attorney Greg said...

With due respect to Mr. Duval - not my cup of tea. Goodluck to those that try to get it.

Capcom said...

Yes, what's the word from our intrepid Spin-sters on the go?!

Scott said...

Did you bury it? - Sawyer from LaFluer when talking to richard about the bomb.

tim armstrong said...

i dont think this is up to snuff for the final four.

that being said i'm sure it's legit.

x said...

there were a bunch of ping pong balls with the Dharma logo and the URL on them at SPiN. My sister, an NYU student, is there right now.

Anonymous said...

Looks like there is an image in trees above the house, no idea what though..

Jeremy said...

looks like they caught on and didn't add any more URLs to that server except for this new one.

MeSoCrazy said...

I think the style is cool, it's the fact that this is the WCM combined with the style that doesn't work. I think the cartoonish element is fun but it looks like just a house. And I don't feel water or cool from it. Just a house, laundry and a chair. And hills. IMO.

feel_the_insanity said...

Not really too into it...passing.

Dan said...

At least have the Red Shirt getting shot or something...

maven said...

No ping pong balls with urls spotted. Asked Amy Lynn is there was any swag!

ted said...

how long has it usually taken to go on sale?

x said...

@maven, my sister has a handful of the balls in her possession, maybe the ones there just weren't looking in the right place?

lora said...

I keep refreshing the site, hoping the picture will change...

Jeremy said...

i shit you not, i have the knowledge to tell you the truth.

maven said...

Amy Lynn said there was no sign of Dharma balls.

Unknown said...

30 minutes after reveal? Although I think sometimes the on sale time varied...

Dan said...

Either they added bandwith or nobody likes this one....

Capcom said...

I'm so surprised that we haven't heard from the pingpong reporters yet.

Jeremy said...

i think they changed servers too

Lisa-Maladylis said...

someone bring me home a ping pong ball pretty please ?

DvdBos said...

Legit. it is up into huckfinnwastaken too

Nachosaur said...

Good luck to whoever's buying this one.

Lars said...

None of the other 4 remaining leaked sites are up, so I'm agreeing this one is real. Not a fan, however. Good luck to those that want.

maven said...

@arbiter: I guess the balls are the swag? Wonder if Amy Lynn saw them?

Anonymous said...

what is the link?

MeSoCrazy said...

I'm trying to look deeper and is there something visual in the hills?

reAnimated said...

Amy Lyn - "I have Dharma Balls"

LAWL

Scoutpost said...

@me so crazy- I was wondering the same thing...zoomed in, but I still can't tell. Looks like there MIGHT be.

Unknown said...

Why do people keep questioning the validity of the URL? It's been posted tons of times, run a WHOIS on the URL and you'll see it's valid.

DougZ said...

I see a polar bear in the top right of the hill.

BarbaraJay said...

I'm looking closely at the poster.

tim armstrong said...

i'm skipping this one.

MeSoCrazy said...

Amy Lynn has (Dharma) balls.

brian g said...

man lots of haters on this one. I like it more than walts kidnapping or the swan for sure.

Anonymous said...

Duval has very different styles in many of his posters. I think he may have done too many different things here, but it still doesn't look completely horrible. This kind of image reminds me of Juliet for some reason.

Anonymous said...

what is the main merch site address?

Capcom said...

You know this is one of the hardest decisions, I don't really care for it, but do I want to try to be a poster buddy? Yarg!

ted said...

is this anyone's house in particular?

x said...

@maven: Yeah, I guess they are, my sister didn't mention them having any other stuff to grab. She said she snagged quite a few, so we may have some to send out if people are real interested.

Unknown said...

I see the bear

Capcom said...

Looks like Juliet's house kinda.

Anna F. said...

I called Spin and asked what we are supposed to look closely at - and they said the video. Can we tell them to look at the video?

maven said...

@the arbiter: I'm interested!!!!!

The Blot said...

Wish I could have been there, a Lost ping pong would be awesome! Good luck to everyone on this print...long time lurker, first time commenter.

Unknown said...

am i the only one who thinks this poster is kinda pretty? it's very art-y without being overly Lost-y, i.e. I could hang it in my house without getting 83957298537 questions about what it is

Roxanna said...

@the arbiter
If you do have some extra left, please let me know!

geekboypress said...

Me too! Gotta love some Dharma balls!

K. said...

I cant see the bear :(

LOSTnSC said...

Interest in South Carolina as well. ;)

Capcom said...

Yeah, tell them to look at the video for us, we're too busy watching for the On Sale sign!

Scoutpost said...

Tempting to buy...just to see what it looks like up close.

tim armstrong said...

i like nate's work, i have one of his print framed 8 feet away from me. good dude.

semicolwin said...

@the arbiter, yes, I'm also very interested in one :)

Unknown said...

@ the arbiter: i'd also be very interested in a dharma ping pong ball, when I mentioned it to my bf he said "SWEET!"

Dennis said...

Someone mentioned this in the chat room, but this poster would have been much cooler if Flight 815 was breaking up in the sky.

Martyn said...

@the arbiter...

Hell, even i'm interested in ping pong balls but ping pong balls with a dharma logo???

Please, oh pretty pretty please!!!

MeSoCrazy said...

Again I don't think it's bad, I just find it a teensy bit boring. Style is very cool I just wish there was more than the the house. Like the Others, something. It ust doesn't feel water cooler to me personally. Not trying to be a hater.

Unknown said...

Feel like a monkey presing Apple R (F5 for pc users)over and over

Actually I feel like a speeded up version of Desmond hitting the numbers in the computer

maven said...

Here's the Ping Pong ball with blurry URL. (From pandalum)

Capcom said...

Caryn, except for the question, "Why do you have a picture of a yellow bungalow in your living room?" :o)

Unknown said...

The bear is big, covers most of the right hillside, the large light green is the arm that leads up into the lower jaw. Then the little light green bit at the top is the ear

ted said...

dibs on a ball, in case someone intends to give one to all the commenters, haha

x said...

When my sister gives me her full report I'll let you all know if we have enough of the ping pongs to dish out.

semicolwin said...

@Dennis, I also suggested that earlier in this thread...that would be the best, but really, anything that links it to a SPECIFIC scene would make it a pretty awesome print, IMO.

Capcom said...

Agree totally, Dennis!

Jesse! Rikkitik said...

wow...sites much faster than last week :P

Capcom said...

So, is this poster-buddy worthy for the effort?

mistersh0w said...

This is the first print I'm willingly not going to buy...

Since at least the Love Triangle print...

I feel the anger I have for not being able to get Jacob's Cabin makes me want to buy this one to relieve that pain, but it won't ultimately...

sigh...

DaveLinneweh said...

I'm interested arbiter!

Let my fingers be magic tonight!

Martyn said...

@Dennis...

This poster would be so much cooler if anything was happening in the scene.

Smoke monster in the hills

all the others standing looking upwards off the page

a dharma van on fire

BTW ON SALE!

Ugh, got a sql error.

@maven

i agree. if it was like the big overhead shot of the whole barracks from the opening of season 3, that'd be something cool. Or if it just incorporated the plane splitting in half. Oh well

BarbaraJay said...

Good luck, everybody! The mountains intrigue me but I'm going to pass and regret it later.

MattLauer said...

Order #2415

Brad Sobolewski said...

sold out.

congratulations to the ones who were able to get to the end before the fatal error.. i put my credit card datas and... fatal error.
There is no order with my name, and that's fine :D i've given up :D

sold out in 3 minutes, like an eternity!

Can't believe that sold out quicky again! From the tone here, I thought people would have a real chance!

kiwilostie said...

WTF was that about - massive amounts of page load errors - unbelievable.

lostsailors said...

Amend last statement (such a party loser but couldn't leave that last thing out there), not all apparently about 85 percent. Sorry for taking out emotions here!

Jesse! Rikkitik said...

Oh, Order 2347! Guess it worked after all.

Scott said...

Took just over three minutes by my count. Hope everyone who wanted one got one.

Ari Cohen said...

i meant 2460!

Dan said...

WTF just happened?!! Were we supposed to wait and not do anything after those error screens showed up, or were we supposed to wait?!!!

Unknown said...

f this. i had it in my cart twice and got a page not found error after entering my cc.

ryan said...

Wow nothing but sql errors. Now it's gone. Awesome.

Lisa-Maladylis said...

got to the end and they ran out !!

Anonymous said...

sold out.

Anonymous said...

This is the first one I've missed... oh well.

Unknown said...

Order #2497 Kept getting error messages, realized I just needed to keep refreshing not back up, I ended up going through twice. Happy in the end though.

semicolwin said...

@Maven, the thing is, the flippers don't care what it looks like, just what they can make off it reselling it.

MeSoCrazy said...

Sold out.

Wow.

Unknown said...

I got to the order confirmation page, and hit complete check out and it errored... said "duplicate transaction" but I don't have a confirmation email and now it says sold out.... any one have a clue if I got it or not?

Anonymous said...

Gotta keep refreshing until it worked

The Blot said...

2436!!!!

K. said...

This time and last time- got all info in automatically except CC info and pressed the confirm button and POW! sold out.
Lame.

Ben Ritter said...

2476, and I messed up a bunch of times and started over twice. I have a feeling this one will look awesome in person.

StrobeJams said...

#2433

site behaved EVEN worse than last week

Jason said...

So... I got "Sorry we just ran out of item #13" -- is it true that sometimes they get released a little later when carts get cleared?

StrobeJams said...

this is NERVE WRECKING

Anonymous said...

Got one - # 2434!!! I am very happy. Good night everybody (0:28 CET)

LOSTnSC said...

Thanks for the refresh info, next time I guess. Congrats to all who got one.

Ophendor said...

I got a fatal error at the checkout page, fortunately a quick refresh worked. Still got #2334.

Unknown said...

Well it wont let me.
[[ FATAL DATABASE ERROR ]] Can not run mysql database , please wait !

Tried about 10 times. What's the deal?? Made it to last page, now sold out.

Unknown said...

Martyn said...

Wow, really thought this wouldn't sell out for a change, the buy now button was there for ages.

I almost did buy it for someone with crap connection but I refreshed loads and the buy now was still there so presumed/hoped we'd gone back to the good old days.

Truly think only LOST fans went for this, otherwise, flippers will be severely disappointed with their return.

Unknown said...

Ugh stupid errors were the death of me!

Lisa-Maladylis said...

I'm going to go have lots and lots of wine- damn it !! I wanted that one and it was sold out I got to the end and it said sorry, gone ! ^&*()^&(*

Unknown said...

lame. I could not even get past the first login screen without errors, and I refreshed like crazy

well, I'll be the first one to put my name out there wanting one...almost a complete collection

Trial Attorneys said...

Didn't want it, still tried to buy it and still got errors all the way through. This one won't be a big seller.

Justin said...

wow...so many errors this time...took me about 3 min to order after having tons of "Fatal database errors", but kept reloading and I got order number 2452

AndySchex said...

2324

Capcom said...

I got a bunch of errors all the way thru as well! I tried to be a poster-buddy but it just didn't work out. I hope that Karen got one this time.

Unknown said...

What is typically the 1st order number?

Unknown said...

#2419 - I kept getting the database errors, but just hit refresh and after a couple tries it went on to the next screen.

LostinLondon said...

order 2465

liked it the more i looked at it - want to see the mountains up close

just had to refresh on the fatal database error pages

Unknown said...

i forgot my password!!!!!!!!!! I still managed to get to the last screen before it sold out. I had one if it wasn't for that.

ted said...

i am furious. like above people i got 2, 3, 4, 5 steps in, then had to backtrack because of error messages. is it worth continuing to try? anyone get an order through after an initial sellout message?

Ellen said...

OK, same thing as last time. I entered everything, and it was sold out. I think I'm finished with this! Good night all!

Unknown said...

organic_herbal(at)yahoo.com

Anonymous said...

Number 2451. It started to grow on me the more I refreshed. Hope I don't regret this later. lol

Unknown said...

At least 30 before the last number, I should be good :)

Scoutpost said...

Well, I didn't really want one, but thought I would runt through the registration just in case...and to see how fast I could do it- got all kinds of errors and never could get past the first couple of screens...so obviously there are still plenty of people who wanted this one.

Sam G said...

Order 2506 I kept getting the error and going back and finally got to go ahead and then back and ahead but finally got it.

DvdBos said...

This is incrediably less stressful when you don't want it or try. Can't believe it sold out so fast.

ChrisL said...

404 404 404 404 404.

Damn

Can't believe i got to credit card and it was gone.

Really really wanted that one.

Congrats to everyone who got one though. Well done.

Anonymous said...

Yeah, that one sucked. SQL error on sign-in, and every time I even clicked Buy Now after that. Didn't matter if I refreshed or started over with the URL. 8/13 so far.

resident01 said...

Odd. I'm on the purchase page, and it's letting me continue with the ordering process (shipping, etc.) while saying at the top of the page that it's out of stock. Not sure what that means since I'm being allowed to continue.

MeSoCrazy said...

Everyone talking of errors from the last two reveals means that if "we have to go back' does happen, I will never ever get it. This has turned into the most impossible thing ever. I say with full realization that with only 200 prints and millions of LOST fans that's the reality anyway, I just liked it better when it was not that way. That's all.

This had to be another record.

x said...

Order #2395 here. Congrats to those who were successful, and again I'll keep you all posted as to the ping pong ball situation.

Capcom said...

So "funny" how the site says to check back in a few days to see if the item has been restocked. :-p

Anonymous said...

Ah I'm sick of this- how the hell are you supposed to have a fair chance of getting one if there are errors all over the place? Well done everyone who got an order...

Lisa-Maladylis said...

that's where I got too, then keeps going to sorry, were sold out.

Den said...

@K.

How'd you get the info be in automatically? I can't get firefox to remember my email/pw for that site.

btw, passed on this one.

It means your special. Charish this moment.

missed it :(

got to the last screen pretty fast but then I had a moment of clarity and realized I shouldn't buy it since I'm not in love with it. can't believe there's only 3 more to go!

Capcom said...

Hey, keep trying, I did and just got order #2527! Probably will be rejected though.

Anonymous said...

This one wasn't actually too hard for me to snag. I'm not fully in love with it though and would be open to trades if anyone wants

It's apparently true they release some, I tried again (just reloading an intermediate page in the checkout process), and I just got Order #2522.

So go into your history and try one of the interior checkout pages!
