A few vaguely interesting "new-to-me" boxes cropped up:

Bypassing various stages of the pedal = super flexible and a gooooooood idea

Pretty neat although a bit overblown and probably destined to die a messy death onstage

Delay + envelope/volume-sensitive fuzz + vibrato? Eeeeeeenteresting.
Post more oddball boxes!

I dunno if it's just the style of the pedal but that "Mid-Fi Electronics Clari(not) Vibrato Fuzz" looks pretty promising.

Word. That thing looks dated as fuck, and cheap and plasticy.
Mid-fi effects sound entirely awesome, just checked-out some of the others.

Seriously. Fucking love Midfi.
There are so many cool pedal builders out there innovating.

I thought it had a certain charm, even if it didn't sound that great.

It costs รยฃ450. For that it had better sound good as well as being a bit charming.

Yeah, very true, although they were probably running it through the 65 AMP SOHO which apparently is never clean, definately not gonna help get a less overly-saturated toooone.
