I'm excited to see what 2009 will bring for Cronic collectors. yes, a nice cronic collection that anyone will be proud of. i am also excited about how 2009 will turn out especially with the bars raised SO high now with all the BPII stuff. Maybe a good indication will come with the LB09 due to be delivered anytime now. Can't wait.

 Re: Cronic Collections
The one-offs were great, but I really think it needs to be stressed that people *should not* expect to see figures of that caliber in "regular production" figure runs. It took Naoki hours to create each of those. It's just not realistic to expect that for every new release - especially the weapons, which were either handmade or customized. Having said that, I'm sure we'll see loads of awesome releases this year.

 Re: Cronic Collections
Amazing as always. Your Cronic collection slays all that stands before it.

 Re: Cronic Collections
Cheers. Sorry the pics are kind of dark. I wanted to shoot these outside, but it's been raining on and off, so I couldn't take them to nearby Kaiju Park.

 Re: Cronic Collections
That is one uniform looking rainbow crew! Love all the individual pieces you've managed to collect. Hopefully you'll be able to get more rainbow schemed paints from other companies. Imagine a rainbow clear hedo or zag or <insert favorite sculpt here>

 Re: Cronic Collections
That Cronic Rainbow crew looks amazing... this specific colorway works really well for the Cronic sculpts.

 Re: Cronic Collections
I love keeping this thread picture rich, even though I'm posting against the heavy hitters who have all this stuff. Here's my latest contribution, Cronic shelf #1. I'll post a picture of the HPs and limited in a few days.

 Re: Cronic Collections
great pic keiboba! some of the resident heavyweights make my cronic collection look pretty humble too. nevertheless, I'm a diehard cronic collector and feel pretty lucky to have amassed what I have thus far. let's see those HP's!

 Re: Cronic Collections
Awesome pic, Keiboba - you've got a figure in there that I haven't been able to track down. I prefer dispays like yours that give each figure space. Cronic figures really need that kind of room so each piece can be seen individually. Now like Paulie said, let's see those HPs!

 Re: Cronic Collections
Awesome variation of stuff and nicely displayed... Looking forward to the HP pics!
Joe, there's never been a better time to collect Cronic. A lot of ridiculous deals going on...

Must stay away. it won't take an HP or an exclusive to make a fan out of you. once you get that first cronic toy on your shelf Joe, you'll only want more. it's toy crack. i'm constantly picking up pieces and handling them. the paint, the figs themselves, the paint, the smell, did I mention the paint? it's just all there.

 Re: Cronic Collections
I use to do Cronic. But then I quit. It was better for my health.
