Oh man deadbeat is pure awesome.

I like fruit punch too since it brings back fond memories of hawaiian punch but he needs some boxing shoes and a black eye or something.

Lil pumpkin dude is pretty neat too.

None of the ones I voted for, have cracked 10 votes yet.


Meh.

[Strontium Dog]

the only one of those i'm vote for is the puke knight, hopefully it makes it.

I loved the concept of that, but the running sculpts of it have been pretty lame.

Latest word on next AP figure.

Maybe by the end of the month! -Unofficially-

This is for King Castor

AP Castor should sell out quick if the new members are looking to buy.

[fkro6784]

Been waiting for the AP Castor. That and Multiskull are my favorite sculpts from series one. I am still bummed I missed out on the AP Stroll, though.

[iwao]

AP Stroll will go down as the toughest in the series to get, along with Onell Pheyden blue. So many AP Strolls went to people that bought 5 and used some for customs. I got lucky to get 1 when Spanky Stokes added 10 more to his store without much warning.

Yeah, and it just so happens AP Stroll and the Onell set are the only OMFG figures I don't have, haha (well, besides the customs). I contributed to the Kickstarter when it was still in the funding phase and registered at OT back then, but somehow wasn't even aware of the whole AP thing until the day Multiskull went onsale. I wish I'd have been keeping an eye on their forum. I am still hoping some kind soul has an extra Stroll they're willing to make a deal for. It's going to bother the completist in me if I can't get him!

After series one is done I'll be offering up a complete set/near complete set based on how last two APs go. I've noticed how much room having a loose set and having a still packaged set is taking up in my display cases. The pinhead in me thought having both would be a good idea, but not any more after series one is done. They will be for trade and trade only. I won't be trying to get a "Fortress Maximus" or "USS Flagg" type of deal. Meaning, I don't expect to "upgrade significantly." I'll be listing the stuff I'm looking for and how I want to run it after series one is done. I have zero intention of turning this into a "trade bidding war." I will NOT go back and forth between people who want to trade and say: "hey, so and so is offering this......"

I might keep my extra flesh set for custom work because I might want it in the future based on other customs I see. APs will be available.

Trade will be ran in LRG only.

The set that will be offered up is the packaged set.

Chalk me up as another needing AP Stroll and the Pheyden set, although last time I wrote that, Clawfreak -1'd me for it. Odd.

The irony that Stroll is the weakest figure and Pheyden blue the least attractive colour set isn't lost on me.

[PimpNugget]

The Glyos junkies swooped the Onell sets up real quick.
They were also the first to be made available.

[iwao]

I think cost+shipping on the first four AP releases has been $33.50 for me, so Castor will put the AP set around $40. Single Stroll cost me $9. I wanted to buy an extra when I saw the $4 shipping, but I knew a lot of people were complaining about missing out.

I got the Onell set off eBay for $25. I agree that it's main appeal is as a completist. Not a great color. I think the flesh and UofM yellow show of the details better than the other colors, yet those are the two sets that are still readily available.

[fkro6784]

Without having seen the Onell color in person, I actually kind of like the greyish blue. But considering I have the Rotofugi blue (which I like a lot), it's not an essential color for me.

It will be interesting to see what the color choices are for series 2.

I hope they do bring out that GITD version they were talking about for series 1, if not at least for series 2...... not long to go it will come round quick enough I bet. My favourite colour was the dark blue set but I also like the black for its exclusivity

x2. Please bring on the Glow.

UofM yellow is my favorite color.
I didn't think it would be from the pictures we were shown.
It looked mustard-ish in the pics.

[walker13.1]

When I say complete set available for trade, that means everything minus customs. All colors will be up for grabs. There won't be a limit of what I trade per person. I'll announce the list of toys I want after the APs because I still don't know what I'll want.

113 BABEE, 134 Cuddlehard, and 357 Puke Knight are holding their advantages with 30 votes or more each.

11 Shirtle with 26 votes and 42 Pumpkin King with 25 votes are still 4th & 5th.

125 Living Candle with 21 votes and 392 Plague Doctor with 18 votes are the closest challengers to the top 5. Next closest is 153 The Elder with 15 votes.

Any edited votes since I started tracking yesterday will throw this off, but it's probably pretty close to where things stand through n/a's votes on page 9.

174 different designs received votes so far. 79 of those received 1 vote. Eliminating the 0 and 1 vote designs cuts the field from 461 to 95.

Count me as one of those Glyos Junkies who swept right in on that Onell set ASAP.

I think it's the best color, though. It shows shadow well.

I can understand why many may dislike it, though- it's the color furthest from traditional LRG colors.

Also, count me in the 406 Snake Girl fan club.

I like the Pheyden Blue for much the same reason.
Also think Snake Girl is a cool idea, and it got my vote.
Bring on the Glow-in-the-Dark already!

[imperfecz]

Like Z.O.M.B.I.E. can't people order their own runs in their own color for these? I know with Z.O.M.B.I.E. you could order color, glitter, GITD.... is it not that way with OMFG?

[Metalmonkey]

^ nope, the colors have been split up this time.
Octobertoys sell standard flesh colour sets, whereas kickstarter backers got the option for black sets.
Then, the others were broken up-
Pale blue @ o'Nell designs, bright blue @ Rotofugi, yellow @ university of muscle & bright green here @ little rubber guys.
Later, designers/sculptors individually released hot pink as artist proofs, some even did customs.
Now, everyone's hanging for glow-in-the-dark!

I'm sure someonme could by a run of them.

[LittleGeorge]

Don't forget that even if a design doesn't make the cut for the top 5 this time, doesn't mean it will never get made. Anyone that wants to roll over a design into the next series for submission is more than welcome. I took the next top pics form series 1 voting and put them into series 2, and I would do it again for the next round.
I wish we had the backing power to make two to three times as many figures at once, but i think 5 is a manageable number to deal with raising funds for.

[seekingxar]

I voted and it was my first post on that forum, just a heads up...not a fake account I would love to see that pumpkin in glow in the dark colors

[iwao]

That would look good. I think the current sculpt loses a little something by looking like it just has a basic stem. The original design was "Pumpkin King" and it was a jack-o-lantern guy with a crown. monsterforge's re-design made it look like the stem broke off in the shape of a crown, and I thought that was coolest part of his sketch.

I wonder if Shirtle has a sculptor yet. I think I might not edit any of my votes. I'd still like to see 265, 122, and 304 get made eventually and I don't want to make them look less popular by throwing my vote to a different design that has a chance to make series 2.
