I'd like to see some pics of Mandics line as well if anyone has any to share. I have VPI in my collection for the reasons mentioned most often in that they don't brown out. It'll be neat to see what happens with the black axanthics...be cool to have a solid black ball that doesn't duckbill or have some of the issues super cinnamons and/or super black pastels exhibit but I don't think I'll be jumping on buying any of them in the near future.
