  1. Oh snap! So is this a similar case to Exellis from a couple waves ago, where it's some stock that's been saved for a rainy day?

    1. Brand new productions runs for everything in this wave.

  2. Hell yes!! Stoked to see the MVR colors make a comeback, and even more stoked to see Gobon and Noboto still kicking. Noboto does things to my brain — anytime I get one in hand it has me wanting to play a game with him.
    Also, a very happy 18th anniversary to the Onell crew. It’s been a hell of a ride!

    1. Thanks Noah! The MVR selections line right up with another anniversary around here, so the timing felt right.

      Noboto appreciates that he affects your gray matter!

  3. Well it's already looking like an anniversary drop then, congrats on 18(?) years to the whole Onell and Glyos family!
    Can we expect any other MVR surprises in the drop, eejit Gobelins maybe?

    1. Thank you! There will definitely be a couple special weirdos on deck, along with an unusual subset homage that scratches a long-time itch. Something Jesse D and I have been discussing for years!

  4. How about them vors? Will they be making an appearance?

    1. No vors in this wave, but you will see them before the year is over.

  5. Nice! Excited to see these 2 back in action! Also loved the vest from the Sincroborg on Noboto, the popped collar just emits "cool" energy. The reminds me I have to make a plush Gobon to go with the Noboto, maybe I'll add that to my "Plushie Playlist" this week.

  6. Aw junk, they’re back!! Always excited to see these two return. Looks like Noboto has taken some bruises since the last time we saw him, is that a scar? Would love it if this were a rematch with these guys and the Gatekeepers! Happy Anniversary!

  7. I see parts of a glyan to boost up our old friend there but what of the rest or indeed a complete one?

    1. Noboto and Gobon look to have spent some time in dimensional parts unknown, modifying their forms to stay functional. Some Glyan bits and maybe a stray vest rumbled into Noboto's possession, for better or worse. Gobon might have also snagged a couple mechanical chunks during their travels.

  8. Words cannot express my excitement for more Noboto

  9. I like the addition of battle scars to the MvR boys since last we saw them. Will this be a large drop or another more focused wave with matching accessories?

    1. This will be a medium-ish level assortment, sort of split between 2 connected narratives.

      The dented duo will indeed be sporting a couple scars between them.

      The aforementioned subset should appeal to fans of the creative genius that is Japanese sci-fi legend, Keita Amemiya.

  10. Noboto has been working out I see. Wonder if Quallgru will be showing up, too, in some form. Quallgru seems like a good companion for these adventurers.

    Or is this a strayline take on the MVR crew where their adventures have a more sinister bent? Like dropping off myxomatosis on the Glyos version of watership down…

    Not everyone loves rabbits after all.

    I’ll add my voice to the growing chorus calling for Gobelins.

    And my god man peeking behind the curtain on the four horseman video just blew what was left of my mind.

    1. Zen! There are a few PVC colors that might grab you.

      The "antagonist" this time is very MVR and very weird. Michelle, Marcus and I have been laughing about it since it landed. It's a character designed to hopefully activate some fun ways to stack those plastics!

    2. Color me intrigued, then. Farewell!

  11. You know what's funny? I had literally just finished, like two days ago, a build with the old clone-boto head! Then I see the original is making a return!

    ReplyDelete
  12. Super special! Will there be a limit on the Gobons? Hoping to pick up two so my son doesn’t steal mine ;) lhb

    1. We'll have some limits in place for the first hour as per usual.

  13. Glad to see the duo return 10 years later…wonder what trouble this iteration will get up to? We looking at any other long awaited characters to return this wave? I’d be down for a Metallic Pink Viyer or a new Dark Traveler. Heck been a while since we’ve gotten a Delphi proper -Witchwitchwitch

    1. You'll see a building subset to tinker with that includes a couple PVC colors -coordinated to construct! Think of it as an intersection between synthetic substances and mercurial mechanics, all under the coded mind control of one strange intelligence.

      Delete
    2. I really liked that old 3-way, brown, yellow and green PVC colour swaps on early Nobotos. I know you've been fighting fires and trying to keep costs low, would PVC colour swaps like that see a return?

      Delete
  14. Will there be a sincroborg this time around? What kinds of colors can we look forward to for this release?

  15. Very happy to see the Gobon return for a new release after so long. Wasn't able to catch any of the drops that had 'em so I'm definitely not missing out on this one.

    Having skimmed through the current comments and replies, it certainly sounds like one I'll have to grab multiples of. Speaking of grabbing multiples (and the possibility posed by Zen of this being another possible Straylines wave), really curious if there's gonna be more old molds making a full comeback here alongside the Gobon. Lord knows I'd love some Phaseons to further bolster the Buildborn squadron.

    1. Phaseon has always been a favorite of mine. Would gladly see their return

  16. I love seeing the return of some classic molds! I hope we get more Gobon lore as well

  17. Will we be seeing any Crayboth this drop?

    1. It's kinda tradition. You'll get used to it.

    2. Same for me - trying to keep eyes open…..Zzzzz ha ha

    3. Nothing yet for me. It’ll be out in a second, hopefully!
