Your wish is my command! It's a beautiful day here today, so here's one more of some Chaoe - sort of the 'West Coast Chaos' set. (The rest are back in Miami, where I can only hope that my Fungus is not adding genuine fungus to its coloration, there in the swampish clime. I still hold out a hope that S7/Mori will perhaps some day release some more Fungus paints - a Fungus Bat, Akro or Jinja would be SO sweet.) And my apologies, somehow I'd not caught tavaro's pic. Sadly however, when I look at it, virtually all I can even SEE are the 2 Chaoe in there that I don't yet have - it's as though they are blinking neon, strobing with my humiliation and desire. I do maintain the faint, fond hope that someday at least that orange-vinyl Chaos, and maybe even that GID, will join my own little Chaotic Clan. CC PS - Xonocostle: Entirely as a result of seeing your great pic, my resistance finally broke down and I got the green Shinto. He is a beauty. Those eyebrows!
Wow, great line up! (Kicking myself for not going for the "fruity pebbles" Chaos.) Which Shintosan did you get? At first I thought the eyebrows were too weird, but that was just because the first Shinto I saw was the green and white. Now it all makes more sense. Great sculpt, but if more colorways come out I'm going to have some major display space issues.
Miami, what a beautiful shot. Good thing you have that Jyanrinko to separate those blues. They would just blend into one another otherwise
Hey Miami! how much did that green shinto cost ya if you don't mind me asking (you can pm if you want). I've been looking for one of those bad boys for awhile. Has anyone even seen the White Shinto?
I ended up paying $185 (shipping included) for the green Shinto - Probably a bit high, but I haven't seen one cheaper for quite a while and am feeling sorta flush these days, so wtf. I feel like I do remember seeing a white Shinto pic somewhere (green eyes, IIRC), maybe last spring, but my (extremely vague) recollection is that it was a trial run/NFS/one-off ... something wholly unavailable like that, which allowed me to scratch it from my mental list. And, thanks for all the gracious commentary on the Chaoe - When I get them all together into one time zone, I'll post the whole gang of them in a Total Chaos pic. CC
yeh you're right i haven't seen one any cheaper then that for awhile. I didn't think the green was that low of a run.
The white Shinto was seen on Mark Nagata's blog before its initial release, and I think we were told that it was a one-off.
I think instead of saying it's a one off, it's more like a prototype. The makers use white as proto figures because it's the most available vinyl. So yeah, I just think a one off and a proto is different in a way.
I love seeing everyone's collections--fun stuff! ...but it hurts...it hurts! tavaro, you're collection kicks a lot of fuckin' ass. miami, I almost cried.
