 To the next level... I received these two today. The "prototype" Maverasu is the first Cronic figure ever made. (It's the only example of this piece that I've seen.) The Zyurai Asu came packaged with a Chicken Fever. It's also the only example of the piece that I've seen.
Comparsion shot of the Mav with the first painted Mav (which is still my favorite):
Close ups of the Zyurai. It has a really nice "camo" color design, with a great play off of opaque and clear colors.
The figure came with two beauty pageant sashes which, naturally, complement the camo design very nicely:
Here's a comparison shot of three clear Amber Zyurais. Left to right: Clear Amber Zyurai (prototype version - first Zyurai Asu release); Painted Amber; 2006 TTF release:

I didn't get them off Mandarake. Bought them from a US seller.
I think Mandarake may have had a Chicken Fever set for sale a couple of years ago.

Do the sashes not stay on properly unless you hold them? Do you know what they say?

Yep with the Fever.
The sashes say "Zyurai Asu".
I think they're stickers, but I didn't want to muck with trying to pull them apart. ^_^

Congrats on winning the proto Mav. I'm glad I didn't bid on it, knowing now where it went!
