Wow, that seller ripperx has sold at least two full sets of buttons already and has a third up for auction now. I'm not really surprised but I'm kind of sad to see this. We handed out every last button at E3 -- we didn't even have extras to bring back for people on the Tales of MI team. It's sad to me that someone took that many buttons, which could have been handed out to other fans or mailed to people on our forums, so he could turn around and sell them for crazy prices on eBay.
Oh well. Like Lindsay said, we are planning to print more.
Well, I think the best way to crack down on such a people is to make the goods they sell more available and less palatable for "collectors"... i.e. exactly printing more of them and letting anyone know!!
Merch democracy!
...Have I already said how much I love TTG?
PS: Yes, I hate "collectors", they spoil the fun on so many things, they complain when things are re-printed, etc. etc. ... despicable.

YES! Quantitative easing! I've heard it works far more effectively if you fly over England in helicopters, throwing them from above! (That way I can gett one without flying to America.... Mwuhahahaha!)
... Oh but make sure the pins are in, before you hurl them to the defenceless masses below.

Just got mine this morning. I got the "Le Marquis De Singe: What's His Theory?" one. Very cool, thanks for signing it everyone. Telltale really are the coolest!:D

Oh we're familiar with that. We've done it before to great success in fact.

ARGH! No matter how hard ye tried to hide it, I can plainly see in this here map, Doctor Octopus in the eye of the cloud, Area 51, El Chupacabra, the Loch Ness Monster, and the X marking the spot of the new location of the legendary Big Whoop!
Whoops, wait, never mind. It appears I lost my contacts again.
I just watched the new gameplay video, and I've got to say guys, this is looking pretty freaky amazing. I LOVE the animation and cool movie-like shots. Really, really awesome. I can't wait, this week is gonna be hell.

Really, really impressed!
Where be this video of which ye speak?
Forget that, found it! And its AMAZING!
Well done guys, didn't think I could GET anymore excited.
Oh my Gooood! I just saw the new gameplay footage!:eek::eek::eek:
Must...not...scream... I'm...at...work...
....Aaaaaaahahahahaaaa! This is GREAT! It's incredible!!!
I dare to say...I DARE to say that this might just be the best in the series!!! The atmosphere, the voices, the music!!!
Superb! Simply Superb!

Just few words about the video:
- Humour - yep, thats Monke Island for sure : ) Thanks, TellTale.
- Graphics - neeeat. It's 3D and that's a shame, but that's the second best 3D I've ever seen.
- Character design - better than EMI, very close to CMI. Hard to do it any better.
- Voices - here comes one complain - LeChuck's "Har, har, har" is a bit too... well, that just doesn't sound like a villian in a momet of victory. Sounds more like Ozzie than LeChuck I know.
I agree on LeChuck's "Har"'s, but apart from that the video looks (AND sounds) fantastic. Great to see some action too, since the scenes from Flotsam Island seem more on the slow side.
And yes the music. It's Extra Epic that Michael Land is back on board. As in, back on board doing something Monkey Island-related. I can't wait to hear more of his tunes. On the same topic, will Bay Area Sound be contributing to this project at all? Would be interesting to hear Mr. Emerson-Johnson's interpretation on an MI song or two. I love what he's done at TTG so far.
I'm super excited for this, and way to stick it to the collector's by saying you'll print up more buttons, those convention hoarders are the worst type of people imaginable I'd like to sick El Pollo Diablo on em I would

You just made my day!

And they usually fight like a cow, too.

Oh we're familiar with that.
Next time, make sure to implement some kind of psychological test before you give away those buttons.
lmao! I have completely missed Newswipe... Now i'm gonna have more youtube to watch

But I think on the map we can see part of a verry special island: let's say the Monkey Island.
You'd be mistaken if you said that, but you're welcome to.
Bytheway, what time is it at your place? It’s almost 10AM in germany now. And Wednesday. Six days left, wheee!
/me hugs Jake.
Thanks for the timey-wimey-info.

Yo-oh-oh, I very well know!
And by the way, as I said in other thread, I really loved the re-edition of Surfin' The Highway! Great work, indeed!

...calming down...calming down now....
Good job, yeah, good job...
I mostly managed to control myself. My colleagues just wondered why I had such a big, happy smile on my face
How did you get that
I cant find it:( Can someone tell me where it is please.

If the first island is called Flotsam, does that make that Jetsam?
You guys are way overthinking this.
Wha...? No, that's precisely when you SHOULD be popping open the liquor cabinet...
I think those are called "LeChucks".
