The Glyarmor fits the Glyan like a glove. I love the way it looks. I'm looking forward to trying it on the various compatible figures, specifically a Noboto and a Phaseon.

Here's what I could get from the screencap.

Maybe someone else can make a clearer image themselves.

Crayboth Type Zero.

To me it looks like that picture has been desaturated -- all the color pulled from it.

I think it will be Enforcer colored honestly. I will be happy if it's that nice bright white and shiny black.

The biggest argument to me against Enforcer colors is...why would that have been a secret? Those colors were already visible in the drop. It doesn't make sense to hide the colors of a toy that's just in the colors of something else we knew about.

It's easier to sell a Mystery Figure than a confirmed colorway I'd guess.

Crayboth don't need a special mystery gimmick in order to sell out. There's probably more to it than a known colorway.

Yeah I would have bought an Enforcer Crayboth in a heart beat and I'm sure I'm not the only one.

Plus why would it be more expensove than the Spectre crayboth? GITD plastic is more expensive, so it gotta have something special about it right?

It would be more expensive due to paint. The reverse hallowboth from October was $5 as well and it had detail lines, a rarity for modern figures.

So it'll at least have special paint apps, in addition to being a preview color.

Definitely on board with what the majority of folk are saying here- while I thought at first it would be Enforcer, that just wouldn't make any sense. I guess we'll see when we see!

And actually, who knows if that mystery picture is the actual figure? Onell could have used any old archival picture, run a couple of filters, and viola! Purely to throw us off the scent.

The pictures are nearly identical. We should go through the archives and look for more similar images.

Another thought- maybe Type Zero refers to Maxx Zero?

While I don't like the idea of enforcer colors that are kind of boring, I can support that.

I believe Maxx Zero was ran in what was also the Search Corp. Ankram colorway, so we've gotten crays in that color already...like the one pictured in the posts above.

I was using that picture to show the source of the mystery photo. As for what does "Type Zero" mean, well, Hades went to the center of the universe, maybe it's a Delphi colored crayboth.

I'm kind of excited to see what the bonus is for this drop. I realized that I have gotten a bonus every time I have bought from Onell so it should be interesting.

All those black heads from the Sarvos tool have to go somewhere. Also, I'm pretty sure black Axis Joints mean a black Argen X head now.

I kind of miss Govy heads.

*looks futilely for a Govy emoticon, only finds Pheyden, Exellis, Phanost, the LSA, Argen, Noboto, Gobon, the Armodoc, Callgrim, BANIGOTHS...is Govy legitimately the only Edge of Space character who doesn't have one? Out of sight out of mind, I guess...*

Maybe he just wasn't a very popular head sculpt. He is honestly my least favorite Traveler, but I'm sure there are more fans of him.
