    ^ I think it would look better if it was in a smaller size.
    I'll pass.

    I'm inclined to agree about the color choices on this one, although I have more of a problem with the green vinyl than the paint scheme. I think this toy is a great idea, and I love the planets and asteroids, so I would have thought black vinyl would be the ideal choice here. Maybe Nari feels like he's done too much black vinyl recently, but everyone here has been pretty enthusiastic about it. I know I wouldn't mind more.

    I'm still going to go for it -- I haven't met an Elegab toy yet that I didn't like, and they almost always look better in hand than in photos.

    As for balance, remember that Mr. X is one of the most top-heavy Elegab toys and it can stand on one foot, so I'm not too worried about this guy.

    I'd bet that it's on light blue vinyl. Look closer at the seams.

    I personally think it's pretty great. Down the line, there may be versions that I like more, but I like this one enough to try for it when the time comes.

    I want one on black vinyl with swirls and splashes of metallic paint.

    You are right -- I didn't have the picture in front of me when I wrote that. I do like the blue vinyl, but I'm hoping to see another paint version to pick from.

    Another good thing about Elegab is the first release of any new toy is always a preorder instead of a lottery, so there's no trying involved, and no worry of missing it.

    Love the black hole critter! It would be great to get him in red glow, with a black or dark purple rub.

    Wow, I think I might like the unpainted version better than the blue painted one that we previously saw.

    If it comes unpainted in that yellow-orange I'll have to get 1. He can battle with my S-taiin.

    The unpainted black is amazing. I hope he will propose blanks and that the painted ones will be space-ish !

    Did Rich leave some vinyl behind from the DX Sludgie run? The painted better rule or else it's unpainted for me too.
