Review: The Outer Space Men Cosmic Radiation Orbitron Action Figure
Since its debut, the Outer Space Men Man from Uranus has really grown on me as one of the best. Sure Cosmic Radiation Orbitron looks like they just cast a Metaluna Mutant in glow plastic, but there are a few differences - not the least of which is that this one is a more convincing space alien thanks to it not wearing normal pants. Now cast on glow with silver highlights, you're either going to totally appreciate yet another Cold War-era monster in radioactive glow, or you're over it. I can see it being too much of a good thing, but if you're going to give me too much of anything I'm glad that it glows in the dark.

Review: Four Horsemen Outer Space Men White Star Commander Comet Action Figure
Believe it or not, I expected the look at White Star Commander Comet

times. By the end of 2013 and 2014, fan sentiment toward the Four
Horsemen's two Glyos properties seemed to straddle the fence between
adoration and loathing. On one hand, Power Lords and The Outer Space Men were amazingly well-crafted indie toys using familiar licenses to make
something for the discriminating action figure fan.

Cosmic Radiation Orbitron - Friday!
I guess we're just reprogramming with Instagram now. Glow Orbitron goes up Friday! It's really cool, you'll like it. TheOuterSpaceMen.com will be selling this figure - along with any existing stock - and you're going to dig it. It has that glowing Glyos-compatible brain you've been wanting.
