Alien Memories


Micronauts still stands as one of the absolute greatest toy lines of all time. I love those Aliens and remember playing with my first one, Antron, back in 1979. I hope we can achieve even a fraction of the creativity that came from those plastic masterpieces.

  2. You're a cruel, cruel man, Monsieur Doughty...

    Especially since these will likely drop tomorrow (well, later today, technically), when I will not have internet access at all.

    Also: nice touch with the glowing "brain" on Antron there.

  3. I mentioned before that Matt was teasing us. I would like to correct that... Matt is TORTURING us.

  4. ::spits out his water::

    *PFFFFFTTT!!* Whoa, whoa whoa. There's gonna be a PURPLE Buildman too??? O_o?!? We almost have a rainbow of Buildman, I think we're only missing solid green, other then that you hit almost all the Roy G. Biv colors.

    REALLY awesome Antron custom though, I totally think between all of us we have enough creativity to come close to the awesomeness that was the Micronaut Aliens.

    Yes, like Roy said, kudos on the "glowing" brain. Nice touch indeed. ^_^

  5. I don't get it. What is this guy supposed to be? Some kind of purple and blue ant-guy with red stuff on his arms? I don't know Matt...

  8. Matt, the gasp came from my sons mouth as he pulled up your blog and saw Antron, mine followed a few minutes later as i ran over to see what it was.

    Look at it this way for us you come really close to that magic, but for my kids this IS the magic! When they are grown they will look back fondly on Glyos the way we do on Micronauts (even though my kids play with both).

    This is the toyline that they see new and exciting and can't wait for new releases.Thank you for making their future memories so special.

    Antron is amazing, you make me totally rethink what colors I would want to get. Great work.
