The Return of Glyos Secret Santa!

[kranix]

After a year's absence, let's get back into a time-honored Glyos community tradition!

Hey there, everyone! Since it seems like the holidays come earlier and earlier every year, why not bring something else back just a little earlier, too? With that in mind, let's get the ball rolling on the Glyos Secret Santa for 2017!

The Basics

Interested board members, please PM me by 11:59 pm Eastern Time, November 30th with a current mailing address and "Secret Santa" in the subject line. The drawing for who will be gifting to who will happen before midnight on the following day. (Also, please let me know if you are willing to ship internationally or not!)

Anyone who enters is asked to try and have their gifts mailed out by December 15th, if possible. That way, gifts should make it in time to our boardies who celebrate the Christmas holiday, or at very least Boxing Day.

Once we start receiving our gifts, please use this thread to post pics and celebrate the season!

The Rules

Since we missed a year, let's stick to something simple and set a rough price cap of $30.00. Just like previous years, you can give customs, but keep in mind that this will be open to folks who want to give parts for an Accessory Set build or an older figure, too. Just remember that the goal is in the giving, after all!

I'll still be keeping track of things, so please let me know if you have any issues once we get to the gift swapping part itself. In the several years facilitating these gift swaps, we have had one single issue with an imbalanced or unreceived gift, so I'm confident that we'll continue that trend!

The Totally-Secret, Absolutely-Hidden, No-One-Will-Ever-Know-About Contest

What? Why are you looking here? Why is this section even here?

Thanks for reading, everyone, and have a great holiday season!

Am I to late to sign up?

[kranix]

Am I to late to sign up?

Not at all! Remember, folks, the deadline is by 11:59 pm tonight eastern!

[kranix]

And we've hit the deadline with ten participants! Woo!

Expect to see PMs with your recipient by midnight tonight, everyone! (Oh, and you may want to keep checking the first post once we get further into December . . . just sayin'...)

[kranix]

And as of this post, everyone should have received their recipients!

Until people start receiving their gifts, please use this thread to give others ideas as to what you'd like to get this holiday season. And remember, the goal is to postmark the gifts by December 15th!

I'm looking for anything older than this last fall. I'm new Glyos and have about 30 - 40 figures, a mix of some new and some older stuff. I don't have a lot of GITD stuff yet. I'm really into Onell stuff. I'd love to get into Callgrim and/or Outlander stuff. I don't have much from either of those lines. I'm not really into customs, but more interested in getting older figures I might have missed before this last fall. My favorite figure is Phyden (Skelden is a close second), I also love Deep Space Glyans. Glyarmor is pretty cool and I have the purple and brown Glyknights from back in September, but wasn't able to get any of the other ones. I don't have any Gobons or Vors, but wouldn't mind adding them to my collection. If anyone wants to see a picture of my collection to help, I'd be more than willing to snap one and post it here. Hopefully that'll give people a feel for what I'm interested in.

[MaxEPadd]

I truly love being surprised. I enjoy building, so anything from building runs would be great. Anything i can add to the build supply!

[Rangerman]

My favorite Glyos figure is Pheyden. I also like clears and metallics. Joints (axis & swing) are always welcome. That being said, I don't mind surprises either. If it's a part of the Glyos universe I'll be a happy camper!

[andiufc]

Surprise me!

[WTGTIV]

Yeah, surprises sound most fun.

[Artic_]

Anything Sarvos, he is the one mainline molds I still have nothing of, and I’d love anything from late 2014/early 2015 Onell(Tracker ,MSC)!

[grune]

I enjoy the colored clears or Henshin. to be more accurate.

[VENENOR]

Surprises are always fun and suit gift exchanges the best. As for hints of what interests me my trade thread covers that pretty good but anything would be appreciated. Glad this was brought back this year, thanks Kranix

[kranix]

Hey there, folks! Just as a note, today was the "deadline" to have your packages out by, though if you still haven't, please try to get them out very soon!

Recipients, if you've gotten your gifts, please let us know what you've got here in the thread!

[andiufc]

Shoot! Didn't get the chance to send it out yet. No worries. Whom ever my surprise goes out to will get well over $30 worth of surprises. Happy Holidays y'all.

[VENENOR]

My very cool gift arrived over the weekend and I definitely want to give my sender thanks. I plan on posting some pics sometime tonight, don't forget to post pics of your gift when you get the chance too.

[GBPackrat]

Shipped mine out on the 4th and it arrived sometime last week. Just waiting for them to open it. Enjoy!

Sent mine out last Thursday, I think. Hope whoever gets it enjoys!

Well 'last night' turned into this morning but better late than never. Here's a pic of the build I received along with the great drawing of it. Thanks WTGTIV!

And now a couple actions shots:

Yep, that's from me. Glad you dig it and have a spot ready for it to go. Post a pic if you can, Merry Christmas!

[MaxEPadd]

Thank you Secret Santa! Xycoss is a new favorite, so this was perfect. Love the card! Merry Christmas!

[Dwellington]

Mine came in the other day.

Oh my god.



THANK YOU SO MUCH MYSTERIOUS SANTAMAN. There's some amazing stuff in here, including a Rockum Buildman?!

Bless you, Secret Santa.
