Sophia,

I agree with Torill.

If you want that pic, then I suggest you ask for one.

By the way, which picture is it?

Could you reply back with a link to the picture 
or the page you saw it on?

I'm really curious because I haven't seen too 
much POA promo yet.  I tried to limit my exposure 
to POA stuff, but lately I've found myself slipping.  
I'm glad though, because otherwise I would have 
missed the info about the trailer *grin*.
