Happy 15 years of Glyos! Arguably the jewel of the 15th anniversary wave, Pheyden Quindecim
takes a typically $9 figure and plusses it up with loads of silver and
gold paint - quite a bit for a PVC figure! I hope some day we can get a
vac metal take on this guy, but that probably means new tooling and
higher prices. So, let's be happy with this one.
A number of older Raiders and Assassins were added to the Healey Made Shop this weekend, so if you missed Trando or Lion or some of the other really cool figures, here is your chance. They're about $25 for painted ones, same as before. Get 'em while they last!
Behold, the ravages of age! I shot this figure right after I got it way back in 2013 - I really loved the wave and shot Neo Phase Pheyden MK II
and some of his buddies outdoors. I've got a lot of great Glyos
figures which still haven't been reviewed - many of which have been
photographed a long time ago. Let's fix that! Originally a cheap
$8.00, this figure last sold on eBay for around $24.99. New figures are
still pretty cheap when you buy them new, the dark brown Pheyden
Gloucenn at the end of July 2022 was a mere $8.00 with pretty much the
exact same paint apps as this green fellow from 2013. [ READ THE FULL REVIEW ]
A review is coming, but I had to try something new. Pheyden Quindecim showed up so I decided to make a Six Second Toy Talk video of it. It's short!
With orders from Wave 94 being delivered on Monday, fans reported getting a bare blue Pheyden, a bare gold Pheyden, or a bag of orange parts. Reviews/videos/etc. of these should follow soon.
It's time for wave 94! It's rare that any toy line have more waves than Kenner had Star Wars figures, but Onell Design is getting very close. The 15th anniversary of Onell Design is celebrated with outdoor-inspired deep browns, bright oranges, and of course some swell robots. You can click here now to see what's still in stock, but here's the menu of what was available at launch today.
As of my writing this, none of Matt Doughty's trademark hints/outright confirmation comments are available.
I missed some, but if you're fast you don't have to miss the Assassin (1987) from Healey Made. The 3 3/4-inch alien figure is modeled on the colors of the G.I. Joe Pythona character, who did not get a figure in 1987. However, here she gets a cloth Kenner-style cape and a nice new colorway.
If you're a fan of Glyos construction, all limbs, the head, and the tail are removable. Her blaster can plug in her back. She's also roughly the same size and style as the old Kenner Star Wars figures, so if you've got your childhood toys from the 1970s and 1980s - or the new The Retro Collection guys - they may enjoy having a new alien friend. She's $25 plus shipping.
Welcome to wave 93! There's a lot of silver, some purple, and a bit of pink that makes up the bulk of the first new Onell Design release since January. Click here to see what's still available.
