We all likely know about the "normal" repaint color gimmicks, such as:

Atomic, Final Evolution Energhia:

Volcano figures change color in hot water (from red to clear)

Water figures change color in cold water (from clear to blue)

Earth figures have glow-in-the-dark highlights

Forest and Air figures have transluscent parts


And in Final Evolution:

Sun and Metal figures have metallic paint jobs

Diamond figures have transluscent parts

Moon figures have glow in the dark highlights

Burning Forest figures change color in hot water (dark brown becomes light, orange-ish brown)

Ice figures change color in the freezer (from blue to clear)

Fossil figures do not have a gimmick. They just look really cool.


But what about Mythos figures? As near as I can tell:

Light figures turn orange in the sunlight

Dark figures have glow-in-the-dark highlights and turn dark in the sunlight (like my glasses!)

Water figures change color in cold water (8 Celcius)

Forest figures have some transluscent parts

Volcano figures have glow-in-the-dark highlights

Earth figures have glow-in-the-dark highlights

Air figures have glow-in-the-dark paint and transluscent parts

Water figures...????

Forest figures have some transluscent parts

Volcano figures have glow-in-the-dark highlights

Earth figures...???


Info from the mini-catalog fold out:\

Water Figures have silver paint and change color in cold water (8' C)

Air Figures have glow in the dark paint and transparent parts.

Earth figures have silver and glow in the dark paint.

Solaris doesn't really change much. Does anybody have a figure that turns a better orange?

Divide & conquer works because of attachments people make to push-button issues, individual "leaders," parties, clans, tribes, policies, or agendas, leaving them open to manipulation.
