 Re: Cronic Collections
Two shades of red for the hp Zyurais? Are these two different releases or the same?
Fantastic set! I like the Nougaki twins and that Black Marble Mav...aw, man, too many to hunt.

 Re: Cronic Collections
The pink marble Zyurai is a one-off.
I'm still looking for a few marble HPs. Tough to track down.
I hope he does a marble Ankoron. That would rule.

 Re: Cronic Collections
One issue with marble paint style though---don't you have a hard time moving the arms?
I suspect its because of the paint has dried up, I don't want to move it too much and destroy the vinyl.

 Re: Cronic Collections
Yeah the arms are stiff, probably because of the type of paint used. Best not to force them to move. The way I see it, these versions are meant to be handled with a bit more care than standard V-color painted figures, so I'm fine with them being less poseable.
They're really tough to photograph because of the dark paint and subtle color designs. That's the case with a lot of Cronic figures, but especially these. I usually find the clear versions the easiest to shoot, indoors or outdoors.
Recently I got the purple HP. Amazing figure in person, but so hard to tell from photos.

 Re: Cronic Collections
Its tough to actually distinguish the lines of the sculpt since they are blurred by swirled paint---challenging to photograph.
Andy, any info how many marble hp were released all in all?

 Re: Cronic Collections
Yeah I guess that's part of it. It's definitely a heavier paint app than a standard V-color paint job. But the marbling effect also adds its own character.
There are somewhere between 15-20 different marbled ("HP") figures. Most were made in runs of 5-10 figures each.
