I see your point.
But I have looked for the red ones to become available and from what I have seen is most collectors just won't let these go.
So I guess I'm rushing to just get a for sure answer on wether or not I'll get one.
Also maybe because I was so close, and couldn't pull through with one..

I bought a red one on Ebay not two days ago. Pretty sure they'll pop up again eventually.

Once people get them in hand and see the announcements for a HUGE october drop and december drop they will be easier to snag.

[salazar4id]

Do you guys know if every drop will be a different color scheme.?

Yes for anything with colors but everything comes back at least once a year in clear, black, and glow in the dark it seems. Occasionally some other things get revisited as well like silver.

From Onell:

"An assortment is planned months in advance, with the entire year roughly mapped out. Decisions are not made out of left field, and we gamble with each new toy we make. Product sometimes get pushed around due to circumstances beyond our control and we have to scramble to stay on track. I honestly did not expect the Armorvor to be so intense of an item.

The Armorvor is extremely popular right now, and will be for a bit based on the activity that we're all seeing, so the production numbers are being bumped up. The assortment planned for October consists of three all new styles of Armorvor as well as few small surprises and that's it. Late November will see a larger drop which will close out the year, with the next scheduled release taking place sometime in January 2013. We generally do six proper releases per year, with a little thing or two wedged in between. It's been this way for a while and will stay this way for the foreseeable future. We know times are tight, and not really looking like they are going to improve without more bumps, so every time you guys come out and support what we are doing we are truly grateful.

Things will most likely continue to sell out when they are brand new, and then eventually cool down. It's been the pattern for literally every new mold we've put out. In time the Armorvor will find a steadier pace and I will do everything I can within the realm of reason to speed that process along.

To wrap up, October's three new Armorvors will probably go quick, as they are already near completion and the numbers are only slightly higher than last night's tally (I should have boosted them higher). The limit will be dialed down to 2 per customer for October so that the odds are better for everyone to get what they are after. I have already jacked the amount of Armorvors up for November to uncomfortably high levels, with the intention of satisfying the demand. The Travelers will also have increased production numbers in November."

I'm sure no drops will be the same.

Personally I think they need to incorporate a "1st Edition Colorway Drop" at least every 3 to 6 months. That will give old collectors a second chance to revisit the standard colorways they always wanted but missed out on and allow new collectors to start from scratch. I just feel they should have a basic platform for collector's to collect from. It shouldn't be just about custom galore, but also an actual primary selection to focus on IMO.

[Clawfreak]

How are you getting desperate when the drop wasn't even 24 hours ago and no one will even have these in their hands for 2 weeks or so

Just stay calm and throw some trade bait out there after people actually receive theirs and I'm sure you'll be able to swap for one pretty easily

Hahaha, exactly....

[Red Marauder]

I for one will be seriously scouring eBay for a black Hades mimic Armorvor. They looked awesome. I wanted to get a Hades Pheyden as well, which were also sold out in five minutes. I'll still grab a full line of everything, Rig and Bike and Glyans and all, but I wanted those wolves!

[Thisredbox]

Yay, shipping notice!

[b00sted]

I am excited to see if the heads swap...

If they're anything like the promo I had, the head isn't pegged in like the arms/legs. Although it would make some pretty sweet looking armorvors

aww that makes me a sad panda

[Thisredbox]

Is anyone/does anyone know someone who is looking to trade a red for a black or clear? If not, maybe a place that's a good resource to find traders?

I have three black and three clear coming today. Excite! But I was cartjacked on the red. :/

[Onyxiaphil]

I wouldn't worry. I'm sure TGB or someone else on here will find a way to rip their heads off and put them on pretty much everything

[Ericnilla]

Got my Armorvors~!

[jkaris]

Sweet! That means mine should be in today as well. Can't wait!

[Jackson]

the smell caught me off guard lol

[FANtomCore]

They are cool indeed, and yeah the smell of resin is apparent on the clear version not so much on the black version. The thing is they are just a little bigger than I wanted. They are even bigger than the Godbeasts. Not by much but oh well. The coolest thing about them is the space helmet actually doubles as a space dog face (atleast that is what I think it is). Also got some freebies which is cool. All-in-all, I'm happy with my purchase.

That smell is intoxicating.
Matt should bottle and sell it as a body spray.
That scent is the PVC.

I've been buying Onell toys for 5 years now and the smell is crazy stronger on this wave than it ever has been previously.
