Anyone have CB's New release Bloodshot Krakatoa Paly?

[ironman31]

I believe 1st pic is a mother polyp and 2nd pic is a juvi....all polyps never look the same... Z n PS collectors should know that....lol

 

[Paranoiattack91]

Lol. . These photochop jobs are getting ridiculous

 

[MrBret]

Here is a shot of part of the original colony I got. There are 3 different polyps that came on it. Some red/black granite looking ones. The Burning Cowboy's......and 2 types of Speckled Krakatoas. Some go orange skirt, to green to outerspace( with faint speckeling) the there were some that were completely Speckled in the centers. Following pics by J.Slemp

 

[MrBret]

This particular polyp is by far my favorite of the Burning Cowboy...Orange to green to yellow to orange to black to orange.

 

[bmeudy]

Wow those are sweet

 

[bmeudy]

Do you know, roughly, how much you paid pp for the burning Cowboys?

 

[MrBret]

Sent ya a pm with a little history.

 

[MrBret]

There is a whole stories I did on another sight called " How did the Speckled Krackatoa get its name " I can repost it in a separate thread if it's a point of interest.

I almost pulled the trigger on it Saturday but I dont trust pics from cb personally so decided against it. I would love to see a honest pic then maybe I will feel more comfortable buying it.

Good call.

All of his photos are over-saturated and shopped.

Ya they are. But I mean if it really was half as nice as it looks in pictures I figure grow it out to 5 polyps sell 2 or 3 to make my money back and now I have something only a few people have! Oh wait did I just admit I only want it to look rich and professional. Oops that was supposed to be a secret

 

[MrBret]

Cb's always do have that certain look to them don't they, lol. This pic in my opinion......as I stare down at them, is dead on for coloration.

 

[gregoryleonard]

The other ones you have there.....that you were told just don't look the same because they aren't saturated.....should be these. Here's a pretty Gooder pic of them. We call them " Burning Cowboy's "....pic by A.Seney

So these are the ones that Bmuedy posted he got from BSA that you call Burning Cowboy's and the "Speckeled Krakatoa" you posted is the same as CB Bloodshot Krakatoas?
How much are the "Speckeled Krakatoas" going for?

 

[gregoryleonard]

It's your money but lets put it this way, they have been selling for £25 pp in the uk which equates to $38.44 at the time of posting this.

Please post a pic of them so we can be the judge if they are in fact the same.

 

[MrBret]

Correct. The Speckled Krackatoas we have, have all been sold at $350 a plp to collector's.

So it sounds like you are the originator here in the states? Does CB's Bloodshot Krakatoa have lineage to your Speckeled Kraks?

 

[softy]

Not the originator... just got some when everyone else did... from GM i believe. As far as the UK price goes.... i believe that price was set there before any real pics were even distributed. So whomever is selling them at that price... well... they could have gotten more i guess. LOL!

 

[softy]

oh... so i guess to answer you question... yes.. same lineage... just not originating from MrBret.

 

[MrBret]

CB's are not polyps from mine...however, his, mine, the ones in europe all came from the same source/wholesaler. The very first ones I had seen were ones that Rudy got in 3 month ago, but that batch quickly melted. After getting these I took them to Rudy and we brainstormed a name over a week. Part of how that happened is in the thread I started called "How did the Speckled Krackatoa get its name "

Forgive my ignorance, Who is GM?
