 Re: Toygraph Space Troopers
red paint on the teeth as opposed to no red paint on the teeth...
it took me a while to get my head around this concept

 Re: Toygraph Space Troopers
I think the automatic mindset in this vein of collecting is to assume that anything not like the rest is a super secret fanclub insert chase one-off, when in reality, these things are hand painted thus won't all be exactly the same.

 Re: Toygraph Space Troopers
The one with bloody teeth is more hardcore

I mean the creator had to be thinking something when doing the different teeth right? I'm not into "ohh I have a rare", its more curiousity than anything else as there has to be a definitive reason. I guess it doesnt matter as I have the one I would prefer anyways. Thanks all.

 Re: Toygraph Space Troopers
I only asked because I wanted the bloody teeth like the photo...and just assumed that they had ditched it for the release. When I saw Joe's photo, I realized mine basically was because of painting oversight.
I never once thought about my non-bloody teeth version being a "rare variant" and was actually bummed when I opened the can for it...
also, I think ToyGraph would be in favor of "burnout" in respect to the flipping that happened with the early trropers...and thankfully I think that's already here (hopefully). I think these will sell well as more come out, but I think the initial insanity is wearing off...

I was only asking as a true curiousity, not because I'm seeking a price or only want a rare. I figured if it is a rare cool, if not he is still cool as sh!%.

 Re: Toygraph Space Troopers
That wasn't directed at you, Lorne, or even you eLoco....it was just a general observation about people in this colleting...niche.

 Re: Toygraph Space Troopers
oh, don't read my post as a defensive one...I was just laughing at how a simple question became a theoretical discussion on why some have bloody teeth and some do not...Jeb made me laugh with his response.
anyhoo, I'm going to bloody up the teeth on mine myself...now THAT'S hardcore, Mofos.
