From the Edge

To kick off the New Year, I wanted to shine the spotlight on ol' Skullface circa his days on Planet Issaris. This little custom was one of about 7 that were created way back in the urethane days of figure making. As discussed before, that cape is made from a dirty old sock. Jesse has many of them.

  1. How big is he next to Rechlen and Aves? I was just wondering since he's so much taller than Pheyden in the usual scale of Glyos. I do dig the old western feel to the Old Callgrim. I was surprised (but not disappointed) to see it ditched for a more Terminator look when the initial Callgrim figure came out.

  2. These guys have an incredible amount of detail for being this small. I love the Old West feel as well.

  3. I remember seeing pics of him back in the beginning of the blog. You should totally post a picture of this figure with the new Callgrim figure, sort of a now & then photo.

  4. yeah.. I was a little sad when the production callgrim didn't have the hat/cape.. I still love it.. but I am hoping there might be something coming to fix that... considering how pheyden/travellers have gotten scarves and the some of the CC gobons were fully cloaked, I really hope it is a plausibility..

    I'm really looking forward to the tiny travellers..

  5. A nameless Bounty Hunter strolls into town with his hat pulled low over his eyes...

    Please make this Callgrim

  10. Something I've always wondered: is that hat detachable?

  12. That body reminds me of the StillSuits from the old David Lynch version of "Dune." One of the many nostalgic charms of the Glyos System!
