Where are the teaser posters? What I mean is has anyone seen them for sale?

EDIT: Clarity.

I got one of those sewing kits and rub-on tattoos at the NY Comic Con as well; I'll try to get you a scan of them soon. I don't know if the individual threads in the kit mean anything - I did notice that there's a silver thing in there with somebody's portrait on it, and one black button & one white button, but I don't know how to sew, so I have no idea if this is normal.

On another note, there was a SECOND teaser poster that premiered over at Ain't It Cool; I snagged it so I could display it here, and compare it to the first poster:



Anyone see anything?

that binary on the sewing kit says "everylifehangs" which is the first part of the code already deciphered for the weavers website.

I know it's nitpicky, but I just checked the code on both pieces with the binary code alphabet at http://www.tekmom.com/buzzwords/binaryalphabet.html (Google is my friend!), and it's actually the code on the TATTOO that says "every life hangs".

The code on the sewing kit says "bya t h read" ("by a thread").

Oh, and if you look at that poster's scan, they have that silver thing with the portrait I metioned in the top left - is that thing normal? I don't sew, so I have no idea.

The silver thing is normal....although I never use it. My grandma and mom sew quite a bit and I've noticed some similar in their sewing boxes. I think it might be a threader or something. Meh.

It is a needle threader. You put the metal wires through the eye of the needle (they are quite thin), then you put the thread through the much larger eye formed by the wires. When you pull the needle back off, the thread will go through the eye and you're all set to sew.

Ah, a needle threader! That would explain the little wire thing on the end of it.

Is the face imprinted on it normal, too, or could there be a purpose to that? I mean, it doesn't really look like somebody from the Wanted comic or movie or anything that obvious; it looks more like it's supposed to be some sort of woman, but that's all I can really make out.

Eh, they always have little faces on them. I have no idea why.

Blast - Ok. I may still want to see if I can find a picture of a "normal" one, just to make sure it's the same face, but you're probably right.

I'm assuming the "one black button, one white button" and the different colors of thread are probably normal, too.

Yeah, all the needle threaders in that style that I've ever seen look pretty much the same.

Yeah, the portrait on mine seems to be facing the opposite direction, but other than that, it looks pretty much the same. Damn. Razz

Oh, and like I said, I'm guessing the black button/white button thing and the thread colors are normal too, but just in case, here's the colors of thread that came in the kit (from top to bottom):

dark brown
dark green
bright yellow
bright red
white
black

I don't see this anywhere. Am I the only person who has stumbled across this on the website? It came up when I first opened www.fraternityofweavers.com

The code is "Every life hangs by a thread" I think it's been discussed on the previous two pages.
