Merry Christmas to all!

Netkid wrote:Yeah, this drop sold out stupid fast. Though I got one of each I wanted (save for that mystery holiday zero Crayboth), I think they should have increased the production numbers on this drop because it's the first drop I've seen in a long while where 90% of it sold out in the first 30 minutes.

I don't know if it's painfully obvious or I'm just a fool, but the mysteryboth is all but confirmed to be Enforcer colors, no?

I'd like to see the enforcer glyarmor set come back in buildstation type numbers. Just not right away. A lot of wallets died tonight.

I would say I learned my lesson with that HUGE gitd drop whenever that was, but I wouldn't be iterating the truth.
I thought I burned myself out on gitd, but that Spectre Glyarmor seduced me.

As a decrepit and rotting phase jumper, I am most pleased that I arrived at the right time to hear about the new mold pieces.
Fools will say happenstance.
The Wise will say Fate decided this long ago.

Can anyone confirm limits on the crayboths? And as fast as the mystery went, were production numbers already low?

No limits were put on the Crayboth so someone probably bought them up in hordes.

So I just noticed Hades is 22 pieces. Think he'll have his own set of Glyarmor?

Thirteen Traveler parts, plus scarf, plus five pieces of Phase Arm/Gobon Blaster is nineteen. Plus he has a "special" extra set, which is presumably some subset of the black Pheyden, Sarvos, Scar Pheyden and Phanost heads and Pheyden torso.

So..."no" I guess is what I'm saying.

I was in such a rush to get my whole order in I didn't notice Hades came with the extra set, would have loved a second for a Hades Sarvos. One more added to the massive list I'll have to track down later.

Why? Just because there were Enforcer colors in the drop? Crayboth are always turning up in unrelated colors.

I was assuming something Christmassy. Red and green.

What if it has a little Santa hat glued on it? Or maybe it's painted up like a Christmas tree with a star on top?

Maybe I'm going overboard, but I do hope it's something wacky and fun, and not just another little dude that looks like the bigger dudes.

Metallic red with bright green paint apps?

Ah well fooey. Was hoping for bulky armored Hades Pheyden. Ah well, least it's awesome to see ol' glowhead back.

You can put Glyarmor on Hades Pheyden if you want to...keep the glowing scar head...it would probably look great!

Unsure. It could be my hype for Enforcer, but I could have sworn I could have made out black and white on the cray in its darkened image.
But you are right- it is a mystery, crays have always appeared in a multitude of colors sporadically, and for Matt to go as far as calling it a mystery, something must be up his sleeve.

Yeah well of course. Just my OCD nature to display my guys as intended on my shelf. ^_^

I'll be honest. This drop went a LOT better than I thought it would. I'm glad that Matt has found a near perfect stock amount.

So wait. Argen clearly survived the whole rumble with Enyriun, but it looks like Noboto and Gobon have since left his force's ranks, judging by their absence from the Village Core stuff.

And what will happen with Enyriun now, assuming that he survived the fight with Argen? If the Varteryx have their own agenda as a force of good, and seeing as how Argen has gone all "dark side," does that mean they'll be seeking the Red Rocker next?

And another thing: do the Neo Sarvos still have the "kill switch," or would the Varteryx intentionally leave that part out for their own reasons?

Ah, Glyos: one question answered, about two dozen emerge...

Noboto and Gobon were with the Gendrones? I always thought they were Protoclones and generic Gobons. Hmmm...

Or perhaps Argen will strike first, or more wisely, just wait for the Glyaxia, and the Armorvor/Neo Granthans to exhaust themselves with all their fighting and decimate them both at once?

or Neo Sarvos IS the kill switch

Isn't that always the way...

I second this. I wanted at least a couple more of the Enforcer Glyarmors myself. Hopefully, we can see a MK II in the Buildstation early next year.

The first time I ordered back in December of 2008 I did the same thing. I made a small order of a junkpile and crayboth box. For those that don't know the junk pile was a way to get 3 complete figures for $10 but they were all mish-mash made of parts that Matt didn't feel were up to quality standards (bad detail lines mostly) so I get these things and loved the feel of them so much I threw them in the boys stockings and have been buying ever since.

Its also a great way to buy things that you want and say its for the kids...I got so many orders that way, every holiday/birthday was glyos related!!

Matt told me the mystery crayboth uses colors from the next drop not featured in this drop. So it's not hades/glow/voss/white.

I think it might be red & green because they recently used those colors in the latest kabuto mushi drop.

I can't decide if "Hades Bastille" or "Village Core" is my favorite phone-correction in this thread so far. Both so evocative.

I was so tired when I read both initially that I assumed there was some hidden meaning I just wasn't getting.

I wonder if you can put Glyarmor parts onto Enyrium somehow...

I don't see why not. Whether they would stay in place or not remains to be seen.
