Micromag 2009 "special ano" poll

[p8ntbal4me]

I Would love to see it in the style of the old airstar nova 700 or supernova purple/blue scheme. If you have seen one you know what I am talking about

Oooooo thats a a good one!!! I remember that anno color. Probley one of the better multi-color fades that came stock with a gun..... IMO.

As a Micromag Guru like robertsr, I would love to see some kind of splash. Rather it be slime green and black, tequilla sunrise, alien, blue nights, jungle, or lightning, I think there should be some kind of splash offered. When I think Micromag, I think splash and that is what I think the new body should have the option of. I mean, come on, this isn't Henry Ford, you have the option of any color as long as it is Black or white. I mean, dust black, gloss black and raw? Even gunmetal isn't that great. Not exciting, especially for an unvailing for the first Micromag in years. I opt for a gloss blue, purple, red, or green if they cannot do a splash but splash should defintaly be it. Any color splash, as long as it is gloss. Just my 2 cents.

They called it Heavenly Anno. It was a black background with a blue to pink "acid" type fade.

I'll see if I can PS it onto one of the MM2k9 bodies tonight.

Here is a pic of my Unibody Micromag. I call it "Spearmint" since these were mainly one-offs or extremely limited runs on the Unibodies. PTP didn't have a name for it since just about every splash Unibody was different. This is actually a sponge and a splash mixed. It is a clear silver with a green songe scattered with a green splash. I call it "Spearmint" because it is just so fresh looking. Here it is:

Note: The wood grip looks faded but it is the flash from the camera. That thing is clean right down to original valve number 206 and the original color annodized powertube spacers with foamy bolt! Ok, lets stay on topic.

Now see people, splash is so nice. Now, keep it up, everyone vote some kind of splash scheme. Thanks.

Like this one?



or this one?





Don't hate me too much...I don't have the second one anymore.

Don't lie. You have both of them. We know that is what you tell the Mrs. but you can be honest with us or can you? (Gets in car to go break in to robertsr's house) But seriously, if the Micro2009 had the ligtning finish, WOW! Just WOW! The sweetest mag ever, period.

So do we have a decision on this? The slime green and black acid wash (polished)?

[micromag-man]

YEAH, the decision is NO on that slime green and acid wash

[Dend78]

although i like the idea of the acids and all of that stuff i think when the offered another color im thinking they are thinking solid color nothing to fancy. im guessing something like a red, green, purple, pewter or blue, something that along the lines of the x-valve colors. i could be wrong on this only Tracy and Forest can tell you this for sure but thats just my .02 cents

[shadow one]

i voted gunmetal grey, but olive or dark brown would be nice too. maybe bronze

[Tracy_ptp]

I was looking at the poll!! And even though a lot of people like the acid wash, what I looked at was who out of the people who voted actually are purchasing the micromag body and when you look at that list it changes the numbers!!!! I am more concerned with the people purchasing than those who just wanted to vote. I hope you can all understand that!!

[micromag-man]

Maybe take the top two and combine them to make a cool coating?

Tracy

I agree with you,.. to some extent Tracy.

While it doesnt help you know what the buyers in the order want 100%,... this list does specifically tell you what certain percentages of what groups want for colors if they buy ANY of your body designs.

In a reference to re-sale value,... the numbers speak for themselves.

Tracy, I've got to think that no matter which way you go, people will be happy. The problem here, is that we are letting everyone's imagination run wild.

I'd like to see a comeback of one of the classic PTP color schemes...but in the end, its up to you guys. No matter what, I'm still getting the body, and I'll be happy.

As I see it, we have a black so I discounted the gloss black.

Gunmetal grey I see as being close to black too so I discounted it.

Bead blaster raw. I ask why?

Gloss red...ok, if you have a red X. A lot of people don't and unless you are prepared to dump a lot of cash to get one this isn't exactly great.

A "wild ano"...Ok. Depending on what that is.

That leaves slime green and black splash OR slime green and black acid wash (polished) of which I voted for slime green and black acid wash (polished).

I voted this way as I wanted something different in color from what is already being offered.
