Woohoo! So glad they made it okay! Monster Kolor pearl coats are notoriously hard to photograph. There are two different flavors on these as well, which just makes it that much harder to capture.

Thanks, and btw, looking over your site, there are some killer color combo's, really digging your work! Excited to start doing my own custom paint jobs, once it gets warm enough to work in the garage.


Aww, shucks. Again.

And the more the merrier! I also encourage anyone who wants to customize to get an airbrush, and look into Monster Kolor paints. It just completely revolutionized my work.

Besides the glut of clear figures I intend to buy, a Can-Opener Trooper is a must-have. :banigoth1:

I'm so hyped for you guys to get your hands on these! And the tanks look awesome, I hadn't seen them yet!

The Can Opener's Turbosaws are my first 3D printed parts, designed by Boris, printed on my Ez-Bake Jr. :lol:

I am super excited about this drop. Even if I'm only able to score a clear Banimon, I'll still be happy. Great job with this drop you two!

I'll second that, seeing these customs has got my mind filling with ideas! :o

I'm honestly just excited to see such a wide range of color and paint application, I love the tarnished metallics on the tanks and the Can-Openers, and the gummy bear rainbow Marauders!!!

can't wait to see more! :mrgreen:

Thank you guys! I know I keep saying this, but these are also notoriously difficult to photograph, the whole "I wanna eat these for desert" effect of Seth's paint job is intensified when you hold these little guys in hand. We'll keep snapping and posting...

You guys are going to love these!

Snagged a "Rainmakers" tank, "Can-Opener" Infantry, and Marauder set. Can't wait to see them in person, these guys are awesome!!! :hades:

I went in sure I wanted a Rainmaker, but then I realized I had nobody to drive it (and having an anti-tank guy drive a tank would be insane!), and the Can Openers weren't quite custom enough for me.

So I got a Marauder and I have my fingers crossed for a vehicle.

Picked up x3 Banigoth Invisibles and one of everything Psuedo CC except for the Battlescarred Hellsmoortal Tank, 2 vehicles would be way too much $$. Psyched to see what I'll end up with for the Rainmakers hope to see a Rig arm or two on mine, they look bad ass!

Thank you for the amazing support, guys!

Just a few Quickening Infantry left, but plenty of Invisibles!

Wish I had had more time to appreciate this drop, but it's been crunch week at work. Stepped aside just long enough to grab an Invisible Squad and some customs, it all looked like fun. Looking forward to my Rainmaker surprise!

Yes! To echo what Seth said, we are extremely grateful by the response last night. Also, many of the board members have helped spread the word about the drop over the social media and whatnot, so again, THANK YOU! I'll never get tired of saying it - it is a privilege to be part of this great community and continue to share our projects with you guys.

Has anyone received any of the Pseudo-CC vehicles or figures yet? If so I think we would all appreciate seeing some pictures :D . I especially want to see all the different Rainmakers and the Quickening Marauders!

I plan on posting some when I get my order in. What is the file size limit for posting pictures? Is it better just to link to a photo/file sharing site and if so which one do y'all suggest?

My package left Boston on Wednesday night and hasn't updated since then. Scheduled delivery is Tuesday, I guess due to the Monday holiday. I'll post pics of my can openers when I get them.

Ok, so looks like a shipping update is in order. Most of the orders from the drop weekend went out early in the week, some of the larger or more complex/combined orders I just now finished processing/packing and will be taking to the Post Office first thing in the morning.

Really wanted to get this out to you guys by Wednesday, but we were shorthanded for this drop and this week ended up a little crazy for non-Glyos-related reasons. If anyone starts to get anxious about their package just hit me up with a direct message and we'll do what we can to track it down or whatever the case may be.

And thanks again to everyone who supported the drop!!!
