Its a pretty cool looking design. The guy that did the final production on it and the printer made a pretty massive mistake. I put 90% on the printer. The file was sent with a substrate layer clearly labeled substrate do not print. Mistake by the production dude was to leave said layer in the file at all and as a swatch on the color palette.

Mistake by printer was to print a plate that was clearly labeled do not print and anyone with a brain could tell shouldn't be there.

So... none of these were suppose to go to market but I just read a review on the product and the product pictured was the one with gray bars... looks like ***.

I know its no big deal but it irked me being the perfectionist that I am that the screwed up prints went to the market when they were suppose to all be pulled. Stupid *** printers.
This is what press checks are for. Unless somebody f'd that up too.

Word. Press checks are good.

Unfortunately I don't think they did a press check. Not sure. That part of the deal is up to the production manager. I've only done one press check solo and it went off with flying colors. WOOT!

I produce a lot of stuff but the press checks when we do them aren't my domain per se. Usually we have proofs sent. Have a bunch of proofs in the conference right now for a booth.

Oh man that sucks. I think your design looks pretty awesome.

BTW - I feel that the pancake bunny is getting a little long in the tooth at this point, so here is a photo of an inflatable alien in full gangsta lean whilst wearing a hoodie and looking after my new clutch. No caption yet, feel free to jump in there.
