    Love the public bathroom soap dispenser. All you need now is to replace your light switches with the ones that require keys to turn off and on

    You know... I'm not really sure. There is for sure a clear pink, and also the Cure red. And then the other one looks more like clear orange... but its only a few shades off from the pink. I'll post a closer photo of them together tomoro. Maybe someone could help answer that. And then there are at least another 4 that I'm missing, too.

    I was thinking maybe just sun faded or something, but he came with the SB sticker on his foot which makes me believe he was a fairly recent gacha gacha type release or something along those lines.....

    Which makes me think of another post:

    I saw those TWIM bees on YJA Mark - I think at least - but just put the odd colour down to the photo not the actual toy. :?
    The sticker on the bottom of the foot I've not seen before. That denote something from the SB Gacha?

    I know some of the newer figures came with the little certificates and stickers on their foot. Not exactly sure which ones, but they were fairly recently, so I'm pretty sure he is a newer release than the original glitter Bees.

    I think the sticker on the foot and certificate was around the time of the yellow pin-striped Bees.

    I really like the restrained use of smaller glitter in these Bees. It adds a little extra to the figure without being overwhelming and gaudy like the 'super rame' vinyl figures tend to be.

    Incredible collections - mind is blown again by Marks glitter bees and the sdcc unpaint, Cube's minimalist bathroom bees, Gimtrees great photos and Phil's superb unpainted collection.

    An anti climax then after this perhaps, but I am stoked on some of my recent SB pickups and thought I'd share. After all this time, ups and downs and fickle fandom, SB still deliver.

    Newest Skull BBB release, dark smoked green translucent vinyl with glitter. Three versions that I know of.

    That dark translucent vinyl with glitter is so nice. Hope we see that on more figures. I guess we did just get it on the new DBM.

    Not anti-climactic at all Carl. Your collection is always amazing. My stuff is all the same old stuff, just photographed differently... I wish I had the scratch to be able to pick up all the SB releases (well the fight figs ayways) the bagman look great, and shit you got a great mix on the astrobrain! It's got a great flow from one piece to the next!
