2019 eBay Auction Picture Thread

Wow, these guys are coming really close together! From the description I thought they’d be a little more spaced out, to let people’s wallets recover (or to let them get one home and fall in love, so they’ll rush out to buy another!) Especially since many collectors do like to focus on a particular sculpt. If all the Fledgies are gone in a week, that’s tough on people who love the sculpt but couldn’t afford a test paint this particular week.

Maybe the larger pieces will be more spread out?

You’re right about the wallet part. I hadn’t realized that. I did get the sense that all of one style was going to be released in a row, though. Releasing all of one color in a row may not have been a better choice, for those who like to collect the same color. Now that makes me curious…

I knew they were going to come out in runs of one sculpt, but I guess I thought the part about offering other pieces ‘in between’ meant in between the TGs of a sculpt, as well as in between the sculpts! So there’d be the TG Ruby Fledge, a castle, TG Citrine Fledge, a test paint griffin, a Pebble Cat, TG Topaz Fledge, a print, a Sir Garlen, a candlelamp, TG Peridot Fledge, and so on through the whole group and on to the next.

Maybe there’s going to be longer breaks between the groups, if the groups themselves are all listed close together.

Those griffins are gorgeous!

I love the detailing on the wings. I don’t care for the blue overspray into the white areas. Had the same issue with the recent antique jade batch and the black pastel rainbow pieces. Inherent problem with airbrushing I guess.
