Also making their first appearance are some brand new color versions of Pheyden and Exellis. Each version has some kind of connection to things we loved as children. Influences range from tiny metallic plastic Star Raiders figures, Big Daddy Roth, Rat Fink, Antron, Membros, Henshin Cyborg and Saturday mornings in front of the tube (Galaxy High anyone?). This selection is a direct homage to the things that keep us smiling; a tiny representation of very big memories that are always fun to recall.

The new colors are amazing. I like the skull-like head of Pheyden in white, the green and purple look like they'd be at home with Repto and Antron. The clear Exellis is very Takara-esque and probably my favorite. The silver one makes me think of Rom the Spaceknight. The pinkish one evokes the MUSCLE/Kinnikuman rubber figures in my mind. So cool, all of them!
ReplyDeleteYou took me by surprise with these, I was hoping to get some Pre-Order action going for you.
ReplyDeleteStill nice colors on the Pheyden, and the metal Exellis is fairly striking.
VERY nicely done Matt! My friend with the paypal account ordered Rothan Pheyden & Solaris Exellis as well as Crayboth Pack #3 for me on Sunday. These will be my first Glyos System figures from you guys & I'm psyched to finally get a chance to own some. Keep it comin', good lookin stuff!
ReplyDeleteMatt,
ReplyDeleteThese colors are amazing. I've dedicated an entire shelf in my collection to Glyos figures. I can post some pics here if you want.
Wow, I'd forgotten I had posted a comment back in '08. This wave is one I always remember as it was my first foray into the Glyos system toyline. Looking back, had I the money, I would have got more figures from this assortment to use for custom characters down the road. Glad the silver colorway for the standard figure returned with the latest Passcode too, gives me a chance to get something similar to Eidrallim Exellis.
