Review: Onell Design Outer Space Men OSM Mystron Demonula

Onell Design Outer Space Men OSM Mystron Demonula Action FigureAs part of a wave of fantasy guys inspired by swords and magic and demons, the Outer Space Men refugee OSM Mystron Demonula fits. Space-faring knights can do battle against a red being of evil from another plane, who just happens to be from a popular compatible toy line. By now you've had many shots at Mystron as a clear figure, a glow figure, a plain white figure, a painted figure, with about 8 releases to date. It's not a lot by Glyos standards, but compared to most other toy lines it's a ton. Thanks to new colors and new paint masks, the results are pretty solid.

New Onell Design Drop Thursday with New Figure

http://onelldesign.blogspot.com/search/label/new%20release
It has been years since Onell Design's last completely new figure, and it looks like a mysterious new arrival is slated for Thursday, August 3.  But what?

Over a dozen new parts have been lovingly photographed in stunning portraits that do absolutely nothing to establish what the final item may be.  I'm impressed.  I love the pictures and of course I'll be ordering one of whatever the heck it is when the chance comes up - at press time, I did not see the release time.

Reviews: Onell Design Glyos Pheyden Zardurac


Onell Design Glyos Pheyden Zardurac Action FigureIt feels familiar but it ain't! Standing about 2 3/4-inches tall, Pheyden Zardurac is yet another take on the signature Onell Design creation. The distinctive dome head with skull-like face and big, colorful eyes have graced dozens (if not hundreds) of figures by now, with the savvy Onell Design crew finding new and interesting ways to dress up the same basic figure. Sometimes this would be an alternate head, a phase arm, or a recent popular addition is a scarf. This one goes an extra step by including the debut of a new "shirt" design on his chest plus a whopping four bonus accessories from The Outer Space Men figures. There was a Cyclops figure in this wave, and the runner shares accessories for Gemini and Orbitron. This means you get a lot more stuff for your money if you bought this particular Pheyden.

Review: Outer Space Men Cosmic Radiation Electron+ Action Figure

The Outer Space Men, LLC Outer Space Men Cosmic Radiation Electron+ Action FigureI know what you're saying - wasn't there already a glow in the dark version of Electron+? Yes. This new Outer Space Men Cosmic Radiation Electron+ is cast in a slightly different (and better) glow plastic with more paint highlights and for the first time, bent arms. The original release, for reasons not ever truly revealed, just had the straight arms only. If you just need a glow Electron+, either version is great - but if you want a matching glow set or the very best version you can get, get this new one.

Knighty-Glyknight Glyos Figure Preview

http://onelldesign.blogspot.com/2017/06/order-of-glyknights.html
The always affable and persistently punctual Onell Design posted a preview called Order of the Glyknights showing off three new figures - with capes - in a stunning diorama setting.  According to previous comments from Matt Doughty, we should expect the capes to be included and these are just some of the nifty new things going up Thursday night.

Review: Onell Design Glyos Neo Granthan Rocker


Onell Design Glyos Neo Granthan Rocker Action FigureWith monthly drops and all sorts of gorgeous figures, it's easy to get lost in the output of Onell Design and the related Glyos family. We're now seeing over 100 figures per year, which puts this family above even Star Wars in terms of sheer variety. The nifty Neo Granthan Rocker is made of 29 pieces, all of which come from existing toys specially (and heavily) painted to look like Rocksteady of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles fame. He might look like a familiar face - the color scheme and head deco recall a popular character from a comic book, TV show, movie, video game, and so on. But who? Obviously it's not Rocksteady - it's just an armored dinosaur figure with paint that makes you think vaguely of the rhino mutant from the classic cartoon series. By now you've no doubt seen a few reviews of the Neo Granthan figures and the Armorvors from which they were born, so know that this is a plussed up version of those sturdy, nifty figures.

Onell Design announced "Crossed Swords," a post in which we are told to expect... something... June 29, 2017 at 9:30 PM Eastern.  It looks like the Varteryx may be present, but will there be crossovers?  Or Noboto?   Or Gobons?   We don't know!  More as we have it.

Review: Outer Space Men Cosmic Radiation Mystron Action Figure

The Outer Space Men, LLC Outer Space Men Cosmic Radiation Mystron Action FigureWas he sent here by the devil? No good sir, Cosmic Radiation Mystron's on the level. The same figure mold is back for another go-round, this time in glow plastic with silver highlights. Do we need this? No... but yes.  It glows, it's awesome.

Outer Space Men Coming in July - Cosmic Radiation Electron+

The first Monday in July! Apparently that's July 7, and you will have a crack at glow-in-the-dark Cosmic Radiation Electron+, so says the official Instagram. You don't need me to tell you this, but it is pretty fantastic and glows a smidgen more brightly than the 2011 San Diego Comic-Con Exclusive Alpha Phase Electron+. It will probably be around $20.
