About a year after the similar Neo Astrovos [FOTD #1,797], the yellow Retro Altrovos
was a mystery figure of a figure I actually had as a kid. It pays
tribute to the yellow Astro Knight from Fisher Price's Adventure People
series, which I got from a neighbor at a garage sale at some point. The
bizarre yellow figure had angled shoulder joints and legs fused
together, removing vehicle compatibility while augmenting its ability to
look like a super hero. This figure takes the color scheme and applies
it to the template we saw last year - and of course, I love it. It's
also not too far off from Samus Aran, which I'd absolutely love to see
some day - of course given my druthers, I'd probably pick something more
esoteric for one of these figures. But I digress.

Generally speaking, you can't go wrong with a good mystery figure. The Glyrecon
is the Alpha Recon driver from the old Adventure People line, but in
Glyos form. You get a cool helmeted head, a Pheyden head, a bird head,
and a bunch of armor bits. It didn't sell out opening night, so
hopefully you got one if you wanted one.
