Down to only needing one to finish my set of Deluxe HCs.

Looking to buy Rai deluxe. Let me know if you have one available.

It's a beast. It was pretty hard to find shortly after it came out. I'm not sure why they printed so few. I have only one, and it's still sealed. I dare not open it until they reprint!

Trust you got the Harbinger & Q&W 1 2nd prints? The Harby 2nd is hard to find. It has the red emblem on the cover.

Yup I have all three second prints (X-O 1, Harbinger 1 and Q&W 1). Q&W 1 second print has a different cover than the first print.

We talked about this before in http://www.valiantfans.com/forum/viewto ... =1&t=51937" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; thread when you mentioned the different color emblem. I do not see that on my second print what I wrote then was:
magnus20009 wrote:I just pulled my harbinger 1 deluxe 1st and 2nd prints. The dust jacket covers are exactly the same. Only difference between the two printings seems to be the indica lists first print and printed in the USA vs 2nd print and printed in Canada.

X-O Manowar Deluxe is exactly the same differences as the Harbinger 1st and 2nd prints.

I would note that the 2nd prints (Canadian printer) are just slightly thicker. They have the same pages so the paper or the binding process must have a minute difference.

Just got the Rai #1 Deluxe so am closing this thread. Paid $200 for it shipped which I think is quite high but I have been looking for half a year and never found one for sale at a reasonable price to pulled the trigger.

I am up to date on my deluxe books now

That's reasonable when you think of the original price. It's not like you paid $200 for a $4 book. Just 3 to 5 times cover price for a book you wanted 18 months is completely understandable. I would do it for single issues in a heartbeat.

I agree. It finishes the HC set off and was hard to find so it is worth it. Was a good weekend Valiant wise as I got a Harbinger 6 and Solar 4 both in CGC 9.8 so only need Harbinger 5 CGC 9.8 (plus Vintage Magnus 2-4) to finish my pre Unity set off.
