 Re: More Cronic Goodness!
Yeah, I really don't get the connection. That staff is sweet, though. Once again, glad I'm not a completist.

 Re: More Cronic Goodness!
The Zyurai/mummy head collab is easily my favorite of the fest releases, but I like the non-customized heads better for some reason. I noticed that Maxtoy is listed as a collaborator on the box. Is there something I'm missing? I'm assuming the tripasu would be considered the 3-way collab. Confused...

 Re: More Cronic Goodness!
in theory the mummy head Zyurai should be easier to score than some of the previous Nerd One collabs, but methinks this won't be the case...
Cronic has basically been putting out a ridiculous amount of amazing stuff lately. I came home from SDCC with a ton of new Cronic, only to see all this amazing goodness I missed out on in Japan a few days later...I gotta track that mummy Zyurai down...

You are probably right. It shouldn't be too difficult to find if u really want one. This collab is a run of 22, which is not that small an edition. Each came in a box with a numbered card. For that matter, most of the cronics at WF this time are surprisingly more attainable with a slightly higher edition then the usual on or two-offs.

 Re: More Cronic Goodness!
I was on the site when it posted, and I was considering getting the secret version, but I didn't pull the trigger. When I went back about three minutes later, the secret and the unpainted versions were sold out. The green version took a few minutes longer.

Looks like I'll be chasing on the aftermarket :<

 Re: More Cronic Goodness!
It went up at 6 HST, which would be midnight for you. I checked back at 6:04 and only the green one was still available. The next time I checked was 6:10 and all were gone.

 Re: More Cronic Goodness!
starting to look like more flippers than fans got these...as the Cronic roll call comes in and most of us missed it...
there goes the secondary market price through the roof.
I haven't been this pissed in a long time about missing a release...

Mavs always end up being trouble. I'm not paying that ass AT $300 plus for this...I'll hunt for it but he can shove his (which is prob. already listed) where the sun don't shine. die. flipper. die.

Retail would have been us actually buying them from K-T instead of jackasses like this guy buying up multiples. He does the same thing with new RxH releases. RealxLame.

 Re: More Cronic Goodness!
Actually he had 2 of each piece...still weak but not as bad as 6 of each. They don't look nearly as cool as the ones shown on KT but I guess it could just be the photo skills at work.

 Re: More Cronic Goodness!
They went up at midnight est and sold out in 5 minutes.
Wasn't lucid enough at the time to notice the secret versions but did get a regular version from KT, they were available but sold out very fast.
