It's kind of funny, but it's possible that Cosmic Radiation Jack Asteroid
sat unreviewed in my house for close to five years - I picked up a lot
of these guys to open and enjoy, but also to review, and the reviews
frequently take precedence. Who needs to be written and shot quickly?
That's who gets opened - so I just grabbed Jack since he's been one of many glow or white OSM who needed to finally be opened up.

Review: Outer Space Men Cosmic Radiation Jack Asteroid Action Figure
Saturday, December 16, 2023
New Figure: Zollmen x OSM Astro-Nautlius
It's due around March, and will probably be one of the lowest-run items in the license. It's super cool.

Review: Outer Space Men Bluestar Maximilian Gravity Action Figure
Having launched at a surprisingly fair (if not cheap) $15, Bluestar Maximilian Gravity is kind of a fascinating figure. (The Cosmic Radiation Zero Gravity [FOTD #2,310]
was $25!) As of my writing this there have been four versions of this
mold - or rather, this head - and three of them glow in the dark.
It's a little silly, but I'll allow it. The first ones were called
"Zero Gravity" and now they're being sold as Maximilian Gravity.

Review: Outer Space Men Bluestar Colossus Rex Action Figure
I
swore off completism until a 40% off sale hit the same week I got a
little something extra in a paycheck. I'm not made of stone. The Bluestar Colossus Rex
normally goes for $30, which was too much for me to pounce on in early
2022. But $18? With the rest of the line, also mostly 40% off? I can
do that. At this point I recognize that what I'm paying for is a big
wall of glowing blue plastic more than an action figure I'm going to
cherish in and of itself, but I was surprised to see that this guy
delivered more than Cosmic Radiation Colossus Rex [FOTD #1,546] in new colors.

Review: The Outer Space Men, LLC Outer Space Men Cosmic Radiation Terra Firma Action Figure
I slowed my roll reviewing the glowing The Other Space Men
figures because we got a lot in short order. Too many, you might say,
since she's still available for retail price and that retail price was
on the higher side of things. Cosmic Radiation Terra Firma shares
parts with Luna Eclipse - and functionality, there really wasn't a good
reason to do both - bringing you what may well be the epitome of
midcentury adventure and space fantasy during the space race. We got a
really great Infinity Edition Terra Firma [FOTD #944]
way back in 2014, and we've also got an orange Alpha Phase one, a white
Beta Phase Whitestar figure, a couple of custom Galactic Holiday
figures, and I assume a complete run of unreleased Bluestar Terra Firma
sitting in a storage space somewhere in New York as I write this.
