So there is something I can do, besides scream like a woman?

If we're really lucky, they'll do it in that order...

This lot have an exclusive "in a tin" edition:

It says that it is out of stock, but it said that when I ordered, and it was sent out the next day.

It is pretty nice!

Edited because I can't do links.

This may be totally subjective, but I think the cover of the tin Serenity takes some of the wind out of one of my favorite HSQ moments. Although it's still a sweet pose.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

They used that shot on one of the posters, and it's not the same as the power shot of River after the Reavers, I don't think. I think it's kind of a silly, overdramatic pose.

Yeah I guess it is pretty silly. Makes the movie look like Ultraviolet whose premise in the previews is beyond my limited intellect to grasp.

What little I've gathered of Ultraviolet makes it look like a low-rent combination of Dark Angel and Aeon Flux.

Throw in a measure of Underworld with some Electra seasoning, and that's kind of what I figured.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

At least I don't wonder about the location of River's internal organs in that pose. Mila's freaking me out.

Just thought I'd stop by and mention what a great service ita is providing for fandom... [link] (Check out the link at the top.)

The cover is from the International poster for the movie. Whilst I don't especially like it, I do think that it's better than the US cover (llamas!). Which isn't saying much.

If it helps, River is embossed on the tin.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

An image of the poster is actually below the image of the tin, so you can see where the tin picture originates.
