I don't think you want it.

Yea that is not as cool as the Silent Hill one.

Yeah, I'm not too impressed by it and I just grabbed it because it was Resident Evil. I'm looking forward to receiving the Daniel Danger Silent Hill poster a lot more. However, I still wish somebody would do a really good Resident Evil piece.

Yes! A Resident Evil 1 or 2...no movie.
 
Finally got my Stout prints today. :D

I've got them up over my mantle and they look great, but I'm still not entirely sure what I want to put in front of them. I'm experimenting with putting some PFs there, but part of me thinks it should just be the posters by themselves. Any thoughts?

Yeah, I'm just not sure if it makes them seem too busy. If I do go this way, I'd probably want to add one more PF (in front of the Empire poster -- maybe Boba Fett?), but these are the ones in my collection at the moment that seemed appropriate.
 
By the way, I decided to go with these frames from Amazon. They were a little less than $70 for all 3 shipped. They're not fancy (they just have a cardboard backer and use those metal pins that you have to bend when putting art in or taking it out) but they look better than many of the cheap ones I saw in local stores and fit perfectly where I needed them to go. I'm happy with them.
 
Looks tacky and cluttered with the pfs in front. Hides to posters too. Display them separately, to much going on in such a compact area has you eyes working to hard to take it all in.
 
So, I know glass is preferred, but is a plastic frame really safe for a valuable poster such as these? I recall some horror stories about plastic sticking to the paper from shifting temperatures, or something to that effect.
 
Acrylic is perfectly safe, it's a bit lighter than glass on a poster size frame too.

You just have to be careful cleaning it, can be scratched easier than glass. One big plus is you can't break it. Ever.
 
My wife agreed that it was too busy with all of the PFs up there. I have limited display space and I think I was trying to cram too much in. For now I think I'm just going to keep Obi-wan and Vader there, as they are emblematic of the entire trilogy and they don't obscure too much of the posters.

Now I think if you gave the figures some space, maybe just six inches between each poster, it would all look even cleaner. I can see the outside posters would hang over the edge, but believe they would still look fantastic. Just an idea.

:D
