  1. Wow...

    I know there's more awesomeness yet to be revealed but damn, these guys are incredible.

  2. I started reading Berserk Saturday, so this couldn't have come at a better time. So cool!

  3. These are blowing me away! Knights + Glyans? I must be dreaming. I've loved the concept of knight like Glyan armor since the Council of Travelers drop when you used a scarf as a knights visor. http://onelldesign.blogspot.com/2013/01/knight-out.html

  4. Knights! So many places to go with this! Love the varied face tampos and those capes.

  5. Those metallics are gorgeous. I'll be grabbing the trio and swings for sure. Will it just be the usual assortment of Glyarmor heads included?

    Also, is that another new background? You've really been knocking them out of the park lately.

  6. So looks like Metallic gun metal, the Blue crush from that Stowaway Crayboth from last year, and Neo Ultra silver?

    Questions... are those capes going to be included? Also curious if we'll be seeing a Armodoc/Syclodoc in this drop...maybe a Supercray?

    1. The capes are factory produced (a first for us) and one is included with each Glyknight. No cut up underwear and socks used on these!

      Vinyl is not in this round, just PVC madness!

    One of the things that really sucked me into Glyos seven years ago was the music of the Passcode stories. I became a fan of Disasterpeace, and I still have Neutralite the Hero on my phone's music player at this very moment. Back then I liked the idea of making a little custom Neutralite Glyos figure. Now it looks like things have come full circle :D

  8. Who will be the last knight standing?

  9. The envelope, it continues to be pushed. The different tampos for the visors are also a really nice touch! Couple of quick questions, though:

    1.) The capes: do they connect at the neck joint or the shoulder joints? And is it a starched, stiffer fabric?

    2.) Accessory sets: what are the odds we'll get some Swings to add to these knights?

    1. Hey Roy!

      1- The capes are attached via the neck, with the head connection and Glyarmor holding their default positions in place, nice and sturdy for play. We sourced a really great, slightly stretchy fabric so it contours and falls into place more naturally than something really stiff. You can fold the capes back behind the armor and around the back to change the look without a major hassle.

      2- Matching Swing Joints and Axis Joints for each type of metallic PVC, with the dark gunmetal also receiving a Hub Set and Phase Arm option.

    2. That material sounds fantastic. I'd love to get a sample of some in grey or beige so I can make my custom Govurom a tattered cloak like he had in Cliffs of Granthan. Man, Govurom... there's a dude we haven't heard from in a long time. Wonder if we're ever gonna see his crusty mug ever again...

  10. Those look absolutely awesome!! I'm getting such a Ghouls and Ghosts vibe from them!!! Definitely will be more satisfying than a certain Knight movie at the cinema right now.

  11. I'm dying to see what the Skeleden(s?) is gonna look like.

  12. I'm getting such a Krull vibe from these knights for some reason. Really looking forward to this drop!

    Also, I love that playset/backdrop. What the heck is that made of? Looks similar to something made back in the Voss days....ah the Voss, still pining away for a production version...

    1. I love Krull! The knights from the beginning of that movie are some of my favorites, so good eye! When combined with Arthur from Capcom's Ghosts 'n Goblins, the classic old Britains figure line and a little dash of Rom, you have a pretty solid cheat sheet for where we're coming from!

      The background is made from three pieces of plexi, plaster of paris and loads of paint.

      Also, funny that you mention the Voss in the same comment as a Krull shout out. The Slayers are another great love (combined with a sprinkle of Alien and a healthy dose of trilobites), and definitely carried some sway over of my design choices when it came to the Voss... and the Villser.

      Well, at least the PVC Villser.

    2. Oh shit.... don't play games with my heart Matt!!!

    3. Wow, cool insights. :) Still hoping you decide to do that Pheyaos/Villser steel mold...that would be the bomb! But I know you have a million ideas and have to be super selective. :D

  13. So do any of these colorways match or resemble any previous drops? Asking for a friend :)

    1. They are each close to our previous runs of Gendrone Legion Metallic Light Blue, Ultra Silver and Gunmetal Silver.
