Maybe some reds again or colors we don't see that often, like blues or yellows. As for a "Standard" figure, I think it'd be cool if there was a "mascot" figure(s) either in an official "Onell" color scheme or with a special tampo print, be it a Traveller, a crayboth, or Glyan in stock at all times as a sample for new collectors. (Would still love and Apokalypse Crayboth)Blindpew68https://www.blogger.com/profile/10017255174017197262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-851241126807150374.post-61215095966039545612013-03-23T10:57:06.633-04:002013-03-23T10:57:06.633-04:00I would like to second (or third) the idea Shockpu...I would like to second (or third) the idea Shockpulse put forth -- of rotating the color available in the Buildstation. It wouldn't have to be a set schedule, when you run out white pieces, the next order would grey, etc. This way you would cycle through the basic five colors. Customizers would know that a specific color they need will eventually be back in stock, just gotta be patient.Cappyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02686650233295349736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-851241126807150374.post-51776198889728197082013-03-22T22:13:41.713-04:002013-03-22T22:13:41.713-04:00Since you recently had the Hades Force wave, I wou...Since you recently had the Hades Force wave, I would think Clear Colourless is a good choice.

Though, cycling the offered colors seems best.

He's just a classic at this point.<br /><br />-YES, for the love of all things plastic we need a Buildstation again. I rely on those for my custom figures and not being able to get access to them regularly severely inhibits my ability to make new releases. As for what colors in the buildstation? Black is always a good neutral color, so maybe another neutral color to accompany it? White is always a good choice, or gray. Clear is good too, but the clear parts always strike me as accents to solid colors. If you're making clear characters, then they work fine so maybe clear would be a good option also. Tough to say. :-/<br /><br />Keep up the good work Matt & can't wait for your new pieces. :-DChris "Bah'glenn" Negrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00532431568536171239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-851241126807150374.post-27672051153841635332013-03-21T08:06:46.475-04:002013-03-21T08:06:46.475-04:00Black over clear!

Both colors are great complimentary colors to any release, but clear has the added benefit of being modified to any shade plus any shade of see through.

But:<br />I'm terribly excited by the return of a constantly-stocked store.<br />The problem I have with a standard character offering is that we also need build sets to match. So a specific color might be the way to go, with build sets to match.<br />As for what color, I vote -- nay, demand! -- the dark grey we saw in the last release as a universal build color.Cappyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02686650233295349736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-851241126807150374.post-89199532468634204862013-03-20T18:52:35.446-04:002013-03-20T18:52:35.446-04:00I'd love to see standard colorways in stock at...I'd love to see standard colorways in stock at all times.

I am new to Glyos and while i'd like to have all the founders for collection purposes I think i'd rather have a larger pool of customizable parts around at all times. There are some figures I have where I just keep them intact and on display because I like their cohesive look how it is, but these figures aren't played with nearly as much.<br /><br />where glyos really shines to me is when I create a mashup character of my own that I grow really attached to, and create his/her own backstory for.<br />those are the figures that spend the most time in my hands, in my pocket, everywhere I go.<br />the problem is I am not confident enough in my painting/dying/airbrushing skills to be able to afford to take gambles on a bunch of clears/solid colors off the second hand market yet. So for me it would be nice to have access to some DIY parts without breaking the bank.<br /><br />but as some others have said I'd love it if their was like a cycle of colorways in the buildstation, and then a couple founders around at all times as well.<br /><br />maybe there could be some cool astrology focus to it to where at certain times of the lunar year Pheyden and Argen are in town, and at other times Sarvos and Exellis show up.<br /><br />PS. a DIY Rig/armodoc would be rad too in the buildstation.. <br />and there has gotta be Glyans!Podunkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00584940218997069676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-851241126807150374.post-59760199008870540642013-03-20T15:17:13.157-04:002013-03-20T15:17:13.157-04:00I want to have my cake and eat it too!

When a lot of us new guys have jumped in over the last couple of years, it's like jumping into Star Wars while they're doing an extended universe line of figures but not being able to experience the originals. That being said, I'm always about moderation, so I don't expect anything too crazy!<br /><br />As far as black and clears for building, I would really like to see that too! I love building new characters in the Glyos universe and these would be very welcome, and let's face it, we can never have enough extra Traveler arms and legs!

(And/or any of the Standards make a comeback; Sarvos, Argen, a new Standard Govie, etc) I think every Glyos fan would want (at least) one if they were available, and it would be great for new fans to be able to get the iconic character(s) from the store. When I was a kid, I didn't have to get a Luke first, but I had to get one eventually, I just couldn't have great Star Wars adventures without a Luke in my group; it's much the same with Pheyden and Glyos.
