Lol I ordered two will let you guys know what happens. :rofl:

One has to realize that the % reporting they got one is in the micro percentages of all TFAW customers. Iā€™d imagine the sample size of CHU regulars who post here are a very small percentage of TFAWā€™s full customer base.

I ordered 1 copy of DoT 1 5th printing and received the regular cover.

I know, it just seems strange when people are ordering 1 or 2 and getting one. Seems like a small chance that would happen much at all. I could be wrong.

I ordered 3 DoT 5th prints and 1 was a secret variant

The secrets always seem very inconsistent across shops. When Iā€™d hit up almost all the shops in Austin area on Wednesdays, one shop would get a secret at a much smaller ratio than the next shop. I often wonder if the retailers who order heavy get more than the shops who donā€™t, etc.

And Diamond packing isnā€™t always the greatest. Anyone remember V-Wars where they had the 1:100 and 1:200 variants? My local shop Dragons Lair no where near ordered 100 copies of that book but some how managed to get 3 of each and I bought all 6 cause apparently nobody wanted those ugly covers with the hands on them cause I only bought 1 of each the first time they were sitting on the shelf a week after release and then 2 days later the others were still there so I just bought the rest of them. Those were some nice profit buying at cover price. :slight_smile:

It probably depends on the rep you have with diamond as well.

I ordered one and did not get the Oswald variant. I did get one for cover price from my LCS.

I donā€™t think thereā€™s an incentive, but Iā€™m hearing Black Widow #8 will have a new character.

Is this a meme now? I swear Iā€™ve read almost the same exact comment like 5x today on here in various threads.

Sorry, I didnā€™t see that.

BTW guys did you know black widow 8 supposedly has a new character BTW BTW. Funny that people keep talking about and telling as many people as possibleā€¦and thereā€™s still gonna be peeps that miss the boat and scramble to get copies and will probably be a hot book :crazy_face:

I ordered mine last week. I prefer not talking up books until after foc, which was Monday.

Good thing I can add more copies to my order.

That Walker variant. :rofl: :sob: So many exclusives for #3 that the 1:25 is cheaper than TFAWā€™s own exclusive (which is still for saleā€¦ because there were so many exclusives).

High Republic #3 is going to be the albatross of the series.

Unless everybody decides, all of a sudden, that they absolutely need Padawan Imri Cantarosā€˜ unnamed cameo.
