Review: The Outer Space Men, LLC Outer Space Men Cosmic Radiation Metamorpho Action Figure

The Outer Space Men, LLC Outer Space Men Cosmic Radiation Metamorpho Action FigureDoes this one look familiar to you? The Outer Space Men Cosmic Radiation Metamorpho is new, but a glow in the dark Metamorpho was sold way back in July of 2010 as the very first release of this line, a San Diego Comic-Con exclusive. I reviewed it shortly before Figure of the Day launched - and it's different. This new one has a greenish hue rather than a bone one, and has completely different decoration.  

This new one is better.

Review: Onell Design Glyos Sarvostar


Onell Design Glyos Sarvostar Action FigureI missed the Sarvostar but Matt had one and sent it to me - thanks, Matt! What I love about it is that it looks just like the vintage Alpha Star driver. What I didn't like was that my vintage Alpha Star driver cracked at the crotch while I was taking these pictures, which is surprising given that it was a sealed-box one I bought in college to replace the one my parents made me sell as a kid, and saw little to no actual playtime. I guess life isn't fair, but I digress. This set has a scarf, four heads, two bodies, and a set of limbs - just enough to not make two full figures. The alternate parts are to make a variant Alphaden Commaynder or whatever it is, based on the bearded sci-fi figure from Fisher Price of old.

Review: Onell Design Glyos Traveler Xycoss Clone


Onell Design Glyos Traveler Xycoss Clone Action FigureSurprises are fun, and the Traveler Xycoss Clone was surprising design taking cues from a few of the Adventure People-themed figures from 2017. The sub-line was a treat, and this clear red figure has silver markings while the Rayexx and Pheytron figures sported other colors. The Traveler Xycoss Clone isn't as ornate, but it's plenty cool.

Review: Onell Design Glyos Fireyden


Onell Design Glyos Fireyden Action FigureIn a year of several tribites to the classic Adventure People action figures, Fireyden was a mystery figure this past November. Onell Design ramped up the paint, and generally speaking their experiments are worthwhile. I was wondering if it was going to be more than a Rayexx head on a Clawden body, and indeed it was.

Review: Outer Space Men Cosmic Radiation Inferno Action Figure


The Outer Space Men, LLC Outer Space Men Cosmic Radiation Inferno Action FigureI'd say "this is a good one," but you know they're all good ones. The Outer Space Men Cosmic Radiation Inferno the first time the mold has been sold as a glowing figure - that's good! What stinks is that for whatever reason, there are no new glowing red Glyos figures being made. If they jumped on it a few years earlier we'd have flaming, glowing red men from Mercury, but it was not meant to be. At least we got a glowing green one in a surprisingly vast collection of figures.

https://www.instagram.com/p/BaCa5wuFG1Z/?taken-by=the_outer_space_menMeet Inferno! If you love Cosmic Radiation The Outer Space Men figures - and you know I do! - three more are coming.  The first of which is Inferno, dropping Wednesday, October 11, at 9:00 PM Eastern.  (Or earlier a bit, if history has been any indication.

In addition to Inferno, packaged samples of Inferno and Xodiac were posted to the official Outer Space Men Instagram.   For those keeping track at home, this means Metamorpho, Astrodite, Jack Asteroid, Terra Firma, Ohpromatem, Horroscope are the only figures not yet sold in the Cosmic Radiation style.  According to Gary Schaeffer, a very limited number of carded figures - including a Signed Inferno to celebrate Mel Birnkrant's 80th Birthday - will be going up soon as well.
