As a huge fan of lipless/vibrating cranks for bass these look like they could be really good baits. I used the Yozuri 3d Vibes until they stopped making them and when Rapala came out with the X-rap style finish I hoped they would finally make a vibrating crank in the same style. Here it is. Great colors.

Yo-zuri made a 3d finish long before Rapala did but they now make their lipless cranks in a more metallic finish. I'd pay good money for the old Yo-Zuri 3d vibes in chartreuse. Very different from the ones you see now. These Raps are a close match.

Look to be a large size of 3 and 1/8 inch but I expect they will make a smaller size.

Sweet bait!!
I'm not much for cranks, but that's pretty nice!

Looks nice. There's always room in the tackle box for one more lure or room for a bigger tackle box!

Very nice. I think I am going to have to get a couple of them. I agree that they have some great colors.
