Super sharp corners... check
that satisfying chalky texture... check-ish
smooth vibrant pastel colors... ehhhh
I love vibrant colors and I love crazy colored Pualsons. I have also recently come out of the closet for CPCs. But I would only consider less than half of the colors usable for my own tastes, and probably yours as well. I have just ordered two full sets of custom CPCs and I love the color schemes.
Get a color sample set and mold sample set and see for yourself! Hell, I am even selling mine now that I just ordered my second set.
