amazing Doromes all around! I can't wait to see which one I may have gotten in my c bag!
I just got two of the japan Doromes in the mail yesterday which are amazing...but these two that have shown up in US bags take the cake!
All Hail Cronic!

But our bags will arrive soon and if there's only 15 of the large bag then each standard Maverasu gotten by someone else means a better chance of a secret one for us.
It is kind of torturous though.

The chances of getting some form of Maverasu seem good for C bags. I'm just glad that I didn't jump the gun for one of the XYZ Mavs on YJA.

I did jump the gun on a standard Maverasu on YJA but its different enough from the US standards pictured here that I'm not regretting the purchase.

It's a good kind of painful, though...right?
perhaps I'm just trying to make myself feel better just in case...

C bag has arrived at my office; no ship notice. My co-workers must think I have problems- it happened to show up on the same day as a Celga box.

I think Mav is a shoe-in for every C bag (same as for the Japan Z bags)
What I'm hoping is the number of B bags is sufficiently high so I can pick up that Zyurai!

I'm thankful that Nougakis are not popping up in the US bags in a way as it allows me to focus on the Japan ones...
However, I'm digging the Zyurai in B as well...Andy needs one...I just really want one...may even trade a Mav. for it...
so I'm hoping some pop up for sale here and there...
and i don't even know if my bag has arrived yet as I am away from home for another day or so...so yes, anxious pain is a Cronic symptom right now...
does anyone know how Naoki gets his colors to look the way they do? his blends and choices almost make the colors holographic on some pieces...

i've seen some automotive paints with this hollographic effect--the color changes, depending on how it faces the light source.
but i dont know if automotive paint could be used on soft vi.
if naoki mixes/blends them manually...wow!

i'm guessing he must use some kind of light interfering paint such as the kind golden makes. just a guess.

Sorry guys, nothing new from me. My bag had the same assortment as hmatter's.
If I were to take a guess, there is probably something like 3 secret paints of each figure distributed among the 15 C bags. We seem to be each getting 1 secret per C bag.
All of the figures are beautiful- it's not clear from the photos, but they are all (excepting Dorome) cast from pearlescent vinyl. I am particularly taken by Ankoron. He looks like a little lucky frog statue in the pearl jade vinyl.

Best $295 spent in like a year. Thanks for the heads up!

Kidding about buying it its still up as of this post.

It's funny because I am waiting for Andy to post a response, then of course he might have known about this one and been keeping us all in the dark.
Also waiting to hear Khanate
