While the majority of the Choose Your Weapon colourways were offered by public release, two 'VIP' editions printed in Gold and Silver were allocated to a small number of collectors. When an impression in Silver was offered at auction in 2018, it set a world record price for any example of this subject at the time of sale. A Gold 'VIP' example of Choose Your Weapon, also from an edition of 25, sold for £239,400 in March of this year.
