Alright, maybe I'm talking to myself, but tweet from IyemMary at Johnny Cupcakes says they are in and were given wooden skateboards with www.ThatAndBasketWeaving.com on them. The numbers are carved on the back. Store workers say they don't know anything.

Web site leads to Locke poster- which is "On Sale Soon".

Later- poster now on sale.

dcpb site has picture of skate board. Seems there was a green sticker in the shop window for the charity organization Siyid was working for. No photo yet. Skate boards are limited- dcpb says under 20 made and 8 given away.

You like it? I did it myself. It takes a very long time when you're making the thread, but, uh... I suppose that's the point, isn't it?

Damn. I really like Locke and the Locke fan-poster would be cool to have but it's sorta plain, if you ask me...

I'm going to go nuts deciding if I should buy this one or not.

Yeah this poster is quite dull, If you ask me. I liked all the tie-ins to the show in the Hurley Poster, but still, a collectors item is a collectors item.

It's a good poster, but...

...No Locke on a Locke poster is just perplexing. There could have been more on there than the symbolic wheelchair and footsteps, although that certainly should be included.

That Locke poster looks like an XBox 360 poster.

I like it, but not enough to buy it.

I'm baffled by this skateboard thing..

That look like some kind of map to anyone else? It'd be a very strange picture to include on the Hub page if it was just to illustrate a scratchy skateboard.
