Review: Bit Figs Mega Bit Spectre Pheyden

Ever since the line was introduced, I was looking forward to the Bit Figs Mega Bit Spectre Pheyden Set. I wasn't sure if it would be painted or not, so seeing them do both versions was a nice surprise. Naturally, I bought both - it's a big pixel figure with soft, glowing plastic. It's also a small figure with glowing plastic. It's two figures! The little one is the same size as the Bit Figs you'll find in vending machines (and should buy), while the bigger one is about the same size as a regular Pheyden figure - about 2 3/4-inches tall.

Review: Bit Figs Matryx Pheyden

Boy howdy am I glad I got a Bit Figs Matryx Pheyden. This is the kind of thing you know and love if you're just the right age - the Onell Design stalwart has been made in the colors of the original 1989 GameBoy, which has been recolored many times, in many formats. It's a good fit - and it has an insane multi-color tampo on the chest that shows just how fancy these figures can be at a reasonable price. It's basically the same old Pheyden with new deco. This is good enough for me.

Review: Onell Design Outer Space Men Neo Astrovos

Another success in the mad science that is Adventure People cloning, Neo Astrovos was a mystery figure in June for just $12.00. Surprisingly, the Fisher-Price homage wasn't added to the Glyos database like many other mystery figures. Why? I have no idea.

New Outer Space Men - Meet Luna Eclipse and Zero Gravity

I missed this - Mel Birnkrant slipped in two new sketchbook pages for upcoming Cosmic Radiation glow-in-the-dark humans from the moon with Luna Eclipse and Zero Gravity (new heads and glow bodies for Terra Firma and Jack Asteroid, respectively.)

Luna Eclipse and Zero Gravity both come from the dark side of the moon, and feature glowing suits and glowing facial elements.  Luna's hair partially glows, and so does Zero's teeth - designer Mel Birnkrant wrote: "I visualized a big glow in the dark grin, which is something that, in my very limited involvement with action figures, I have never seen."

No release date was given, but these are being tooled along with the long-awaited Astrodite - which we first saw around February 2013.   A four or five year wait is nothing - about half of the Glyos The Outer Space Men figures we've received thus far were based on designs from the 1960s and didn't get produced until the 2010s.   Five years is nothing.

Review: Four Horsemen Outer Space Men Beta Phase Ohpromatem Action Figure

It's easy to forget, but from 2010 to 2013 each and every San Diego Comic-Con and New York Comic Con had at least three exclusive The Outer Space Men action figures. Now you might see some at a New York show here and there, but the sets you could set your watch to are long gone. One of the last sets to be sold at New York Comic Con included a White Star Ohpromatem, at least sixteen convention exclusives in 2013 - easily one of the most prolific years the line had ever had for this kind of thing. The figure shares tooling with Terra Firma and Horrorscope, plus a few of Metamorpho's parts for good measure. It's a nifty figure, combining the cartoon proportions of Playboy's comic panels with nightmares from outer space. It's also largely unpainted.

Cosmic Radiation Outer Space Men Alpha 7 - Available Now?

While I got an email today saying Cosmic Radiation Outer Space Men Alpha 7 was available Friday, this link in the store appears to be active now.  He's $20 - and I got one early, and it's awesome.  Due to travel I can't have the review up right now, but it glows, it's cool, and I love it.

As far as  I know, this is all that is planned for now - the girls and the two humans aren't yet announced as glowing figures.

ICYMI: Matryx Pheyden at Culture Pirates Shop

But fret not totally - the Culture Pirates Shop has some glow-in-the-dark Bit Figs and other goodies.

...dang I wish I was home to get that Pheyden.

Review: Onell Design Outer Space Men Neo Granthan Reptoriun

As any line goes on, you can be forgiven for saying "Hey, have I seen this before?" The Neo Granthan Reptoriun is brown with green, similar to the copper with green Neo Granthan Sendollest Hunter a while ago. That one had richer colors and different paint masks, too - this new one looks sort of like an orc or an ogre from a fantasy series. I quite like it - especially the new deco on the Armorvor head.
