TLT Best Buy Exclusive

[cruiser]

You know...us country bumpkins can't get into Best Buy all that often, especially with the price of hay going up the way it has. Is this another urban conspiracy against us here country folk? Harumph....Harumph!!!!

I must say that I think WB marketing sure screwed the pooch on this one...if you listen closely, I think you can hear it yelping in the background while the the credits are running....

I agree Cruiser.
I did finally get to watch it last night but wonder how many copies were produced initially for the entire country? Or worldwide distribution. IF there was a max of 6 special copies packaged... I suspect that the release party up in L.A. had the majority of the regular ones since they may well have had comics for autographs there.
Will have to keep tabs on the podcast to find out.


Other than that, I'm a happy camper. Other than not having the comic of course. Going to go listen to Episode #75 of the podcast right now.

B5 comic

Any chance that someone could scan in the comic and post it somewhere so that we could at least read the story?

Thanks,

"No, there's not." said the Moderator. Free item or not, tribute or not, we don't discuss pirating intellectual property here. My synopsis, poor substitute that it might be, is still available to any who request it by PM or email.

ETA: I did read somplace that somebody emailed WHV and complained about the fact that the comic was made available to people who waited rather than to people who pre-ordered and the person they reached offered to send them the comic. I don't know who or what email but it might be worth a try and also give WBHV a message about their marketing.

Sounds like a good idea. I just wrote to [email protected] and we'll see if I get some kind of response. I mentioned my disappointment and hoped that they could include it in the second Lost Tales release. If I get a response, I'll post something here.

EDIT: Unfortunately it appears that the email I sent it to is only for purchases from the WB online DVD store.

Somehow I made my way through the WB online maze and found a comment entry page and sent my comments in about the mini-comic only being included in the Best Buy versions of Lost Tales. This time I received a reply.

I apologize for the inconvenience. Please note that I have ordered the mini-comic and just waiting for them to arrive. As soon as I receive it, I will be more than happy to send you one.

I just tried to find that page again but it must be on Grey 17.

Unfortunately, it looks like there are no more of the B5 mini-comic. I received a new follow-up response to my note to WB Home Video.

I am sorry to say that because this was an account exclusive and only while supplies last, there are no more available to send. I apologize for the inconvenience.

Can I publicy thank the person who kindly sent me scans of the comic.
I'll not name them here, they know who they are. I did try and respond in email but it bounced for some reason.
Ergo not to hink that I'm ungrateful, I'm not.
I'm very happy to have read it, there is no way I could have gotten hold of a copy.
Thanky you again, you know who you are I was quite touched.
