    Still no Tetran w/ guts though, maybe with the next reveal?

    Edit: Thought it could be nice to collect these here, but let me know If I should move them to the appreciation thread instead.

    GID with glitter is pretty nice.

    When I saw this show was announced I kind of had a "hmmm" pause considering the circumstances around it... Covid of course is still a big issue and then you have the whole China taking over Hong Kong thing. I remember AA were holding shows during the endless protests last year so I guess they must be on the other side of town away from the more "excitable" residents.

    Was pretty bummed to read this post from Kiyoka:

    Hello folks,
    This is Kiyoka Ikeda, who is afraid and hateful of COVID-19.
    I have two intractable diseases and a weak body, I think I'll die if I get infected.
    So, I'm being as careful as I can.

    While the world is forced to live an uncomfortable and inconvenient life at COVID-19.
    I was Just thinking Why don't we do a custom show?
    The custom show in Hong Kong has been postponed due to travel restrictions, but
    Andy from Angel Abby said, "How about doing half of it now and then doing the other half when (I'm able to come to Hong Kong)?
    So I decided to do it!
    Hong Kong seems to be doing a better job of preventing infection than Japan.
    I felt that the decision to hold the event should be respected by the local people.
    In addition, since EMS has been stopped in the United States and China, mail order from outside of Japan is also not possible.
    We have also postponed the release of regular products that we had prepared.
    Since I want to make sure that there is no time lag in the release time of my regular products.
    We can't send it to some wholesalers still, so we can't take the plunge to release.

    Also, we don't know when we will be able to do a custom show in Japan yet, so
    I'm thinking of selling 20-30 of customs by mail order in late June or early July.
    I'd really like you to see it directly and choose the one you like while chatting with me…it's a pity.
    We will announce the date and how to buy when it’s decided.

    If you go to Angel Abby, I hope you will take precautions and follow the rules to prevent infection and have fun.
    Thank you very much for your cooperation.

    Took me a while to appreciate the spiral paint of the past shows.
    Came around after reading Junji Ito's Uzumaki.

    I love Gargamel, always will... but I can’t help but notice that they’re using the “all metallic paint with a black rub” style. It’s better than the stuff we see in the “fugliest” thread, at least. Still have no interest in them.
    Now those camo Tetrans.... :shock:

    I like the black rub on the mechas, it gives a bit of interest to the flat surfaces and overall fits a metal type character. It's a bit much on the very textured "zag" body. Those double pour glitter/glow tetrans are the easy winners of the show! That water pattern is an absolute stunner!
