Post by drmirage »

Due to the popularity of last years enjoyable *2014 Valiant Photo Scavenger Hunt*, Valiant has granted Bruce and I another chance to promote a second round. In the past, we had the occasion to see various photos of Valiant themed street signs, band aids and mail boxes. We even got an opportunity to see the elusive "Bloodshot #0 Platinum Error". All participants who entered last year won a special Gold Book.

For 2015, we've made numerous modifications. Some tasks are simple, several will be tricky and many will be exceedingly serious. What will be the mystery prize this year? Will we finally see a Valiant Wedding Theme or a Set of Quadruplets holding Valiant books?

With that being said, Lets share everyone's original creativity. Lets get all our friends involved. Enjoy. Smile. Be safe and above all HAVE FUN!!!

Feels good to be working with Elery again on another promo to help both VEI and reward the loyal fans! :clap:

A WIN WIN all around.

Last years photo scavenger hunt was probably the most popular promo we have ever done and ever since that, we've talked about doing a sequel to it. So here it is.

Have fun with it. We're both VERY anxious to see what everyone comes up with.

This was fun last year. However, like last year, May is a tough month for me. I will be out of town until 5/8, and then I move 5/9. Not a lot of time to participate. I'll do my best though!

When it says "various" does that mean they all have to be different?

For example: 5 Various Divinity #1 Covers ... five totally different covers or maybe 3 of one and 2 of another?

Various does mean different such as 5 different Divinity 1 covers. Thanks for asking and sorry for any confusion.

"A 2015 CGC/CBCS Graded 9.9+ Valiant Book"

Graded in 2015, or a 2015 book that is graded 9.9 or 10? The former is possible (but not probable). The latter doesn't exist...yet. I'm not sure it's even possible. It usually takes me 3 months to get a book back from CGC!

One thing I'm not clear on, are we supposed to be in all of our pictures along with the items? It seems that was the case last year.
