Finally! A onedrop ano reference list!

Nerds, rejoice!

I have been working with the guys at onedrop for the last couple weeks to catalog the playable museum at the shop in Eugene, OR. I have just barely broken the surface of this massive project, but realized very quickly that I was going to need a reference sheet for the seemingly endless amount of ano options that od has offered over the last two decades. So I went through everything on their flickr, and made this:

Onedrop Master Ano Reference Sheet

This is V1 of this sheet, and it will be constantly evolving. It is not perfect, but it is functional. Some of my formatting didn’t quite translate to the published version, so I’ll be fixing that stuff first. I will also be updating this as I am able to with new releases, as well as adding tabs for models available in each ano, release timelines, and ano artist responsible for specific runs. I am open to any feedback, corrections, additions, etc! This is a community effort for the people, so if this is something that is useful to you help me make it better for you!

Enjoy!

Here is a shot of drawer #2 from the museum for y’all. Check out the museum on instagram at @onedropmuseum ! Big thanks to Shawn and David for their help with this project, and just for being cool dudes and good friends.

I believe this one is called ‘藤’. I can’t remember how I found that out in the end, but it didn’t have an English name.

Noted! Sudo had so many wacky colorways with so many names. Does that have any translation at all?

It refers to a wisteria or light purple (because of the colour of wisteria). There’s no One Correct Way of translating it, of course. :slight_smile:

Thanks you! Happy to do it! I’ve heard the idea of something like this come up a handful of times, but no one ever wanted to put in the time to make it happen. I’ve had some down time recently, and now that it’s something I can get some serious use out of I figured I might as well. That museum is so crazy to see in person, and so many people don’t have the opportunity to experience it.

thank you! incredible work and super helpful for reference and collection keeping.

My only suggestion, which granted is a wild one with a lot of work attached, is to add which models had each ano =]

That is on the list for sure. That may be a larger project than this initial list even :sweat_smile: but I am working on it!
