I'm assuming these were done in higher quantities as builders. Phase green is the perfect color for Villser and it's mutations, so it makes sense these had a higher limit and probably run in a higher quantity. Also, phase arms and axis joints in phase green to go with these.

20 Neo Phase and 5 Revenant left.

I'm not a big fan of Neo Phase personally. It's not a very attractive shade of green to me. I do own the original Phase Buildman, and it seems to me to be a different shade of green--yellower and more...ooze-esque. Like, it's the perfect color of Ecto Cooler and Retromutagen Ooze. It's gorgeous and I'm never gonna sell it and I wish we could get more of this color plastic someday.
>>
With Glyos this thing happens a lot where at drop time I'm like "meh" and pass on most of the stuff, and then months later I'll see someone's pic and be like WHOA WHAT IS THAT IT LOOKS AWESOME and I'll realize it's the same figure I passed on 4 months ago.
>>
>>6464996
A very similar shade came back and was released as a Battle Tribes figure. Onell also did a freebie phase arm in this color around the same time and then released some other stuff in this color, such as Skeleden and Crayboth. Then, Bio Masters used the color for their figure. So, there has been some cool stuff over the last year done with a yellower translucent green PVC.

Most glyos can be made to look good in photos. In hand is a different story- I've had figures that look shitty in photos look great and had figures that look great look like hot garbage.
>>
>>6464999
It also has to do with builds and adding little bits, for example lots of the more plain figures from recent years can looks shitty or boring in stock forms, but really come to life with the proper accent color or some detail bits from OSM or Spy monkey weapons.

It looks fucking fantastic, if only the yellow was more of a gold color instead of eggnog..

That's a pretty Villser to be honest.
>>
>>6466692
3 of 4 color options sold out in 2 days aint bad

Matt- more contained builds designs pls?
>>
>>6466640
It's cause in that photo it looks like all the paint apps are gold at first glance. Heck, I thought so too. Honestly though, I still kinda want that figure...I wonder how hard it would be to strip all that tan and repaint it in gold.
>>
>>6466755
I've heard from some people in the customizing community that Glyos factory paint is nigh-impossible to remove- And even then, masking the parts to strip would be hellish.You'd be better off just painting over the yellow.
>>
>>6466757
Yeah, I guess so.

It's nice to know that the paint is so tough...guess it would have to be, seeing as this is a toyline where the parts are constantly being pulled apart and rubbed up against each other. Not to mention the paint needs to be flexible enough to bend on thin parts like the Glyarmor. It's pretty good shit, huh?
>>
>>6466844
Hell yeah. My only complaint with Glyarmor is that the arm pieces just don't want to fit sometimes- Particularly on the open Traveler hand. I just can't see the fit working at all- I see that the wrist has an oval shape, but even turning the armor to fit it, it doesn't fit.
>>
>>6466851
Yeah, I just gave up in the end. I could not get that armor onto the arms no matter how I struggled.
>>
I can't stand that big open hand or the overly large fist. It seems the scale has been long adjusted but the Pheyden mold never got the memo or work done. Even the newest full figure has new smaller fists and such.
>>
>>6466965
The basic Traveler hands could use a serious rework. I'd appreciate mirrored hands, but the issue is colorways- Even if Matt was considering making mirrored hand packs or modified hands, he's digging himself deeper with every new colorway created. There are too many to make it a viable option anymore.
>>

Heat it up faggots. What the hell is wrong with some people that they can't understand that to really build with glyos you should heat it up.

>>6466969
I hate the straight arm and open hand. Its a ridiculous standard pose. Mirror the fist arm completely and I'd like travelers a lot more.
>>
>>6466640
Terrible example. This figure is super desirable and sells for good money on ebay, except for the fact no one is selling. The beige color is a fail, but everyone still wants this figure and those that have it are keeping it. Try again...
>>
>>6463662
I'm really curious to see how much I hate this figure in-hand. It seems like the only legit color for Villser is green. So, will the figure be cool enough I'm going to want 20 in different colors or am I fucking good with a couple green ones? Has this new mold already worn out it's welcome? Or is this thing going to be so cool that everyone will want to modify it and use it in other ways to build and beef up other figures?

I'm guessing the guys that have 80 repaints of Kabuto Mushi will also want 80 of these. Hard to say. Kabuto Mushi is so well designed. Is this figure going to turn out to be as cool? I just think there's no way it can be as interesting. Oh well...we'll all find out this week (except for the faggots that didn't order any because it wasn't a Delphi). But, I'm betting all the faggots ordered this anyway.
>>
>>6467950
I wonder how well it will build with kabuto mushi and bio monster. I sure hope those guys are planning to sync colorways with villser. If they do I'm all in.
>>
>>6468077
Maybe by coincidence
>>
>>6468123
Marty is smart enough to do matching colors when it's something he likes or Matt picks up on a cool color Marty runs. The other sister companies just tend to do whatever the fuck they want.
>>
I know this kind of thing gets posted here a lot, but I am working on some figure designs and I'm planning to make them glyos-compatible at some point., I'm ready to move to the prototyping stage. My question for you guys as glyos-system fans, is whether you like pvc or vinyl more? I can easily scale my designs for either. The first figure itself is builder-oriented, less about individual characters more about having some solid colorways
>>
>>6469111
If it's building-oriented, 100% go for PVC. We could always use more builder parts, and Glyos vinyl isn't in a great place for building at the moment.

Too saturated for my tastes....at least, if this is gonna be Neo Shock Force. Shock Force was a tastefully desaturated purple.

Anyway though, I do hope we see a Shock Force return someday, cause passing on that drop was one of the biggest mistakes of my entire Glyos-buying career.

Why is people complaining about how tight the glyarmor is not an acceptable complaint?? Damn just accept the fact it's tight. It's crammed on. I have two figures where the paint has come off removing it. But these fucking die hards every single time.. You gotta take a hair dryer to it or you gotta put it in the microwave. Yea don't get me wrong it works but why in the fuck should anybody have to do that and it's always said in the context of "duh" isnt it obvious you have to get a hair dryer to build with a figure that's intended to build with! It's like a mechanic telling you to start your car you gotta hold down the gas and break. Sure it might work but it's not right. It's flawed. Quit defending it. Rant over.
P.S. I hope the joints on villser are ecroyex tight and you burn out your mom's hair dryer trying to build. But really I hope villser is bad ass and really looking forward to the builds people come up with.

>>
>>6470586
What are you even complaining about? Matt has said that using a hair dryer makes things easier. If thats how he designed it then thats the end of the story right there. The paint coming off is a problem I'll agree but its most likely caused by the factory putting the glyarmor on when the paint isn't fully cured. So many cry baby bitches in these glyos generals. I could understand if matt or marc don't come here for criticism. Its fucking cancer every time.
>>
I'm complaining about people like you.
>>
>>6471327
I...I don't own a hair dryer. My hair has never been long enough to need one.

Anyway, I do struggle with Glyarmor myself, but I do sorta understand the problem. Think about it: Matt needed to engineer a part that fit not only over shins, but also over arms. These two parts are quite differently sized and shaped. It was virtually inevitable that one or the other was gonna suffer a little.

So I straight up did not notice the purchase limit on the Villser and ordered two. But after I saw someone on here comment that we wouldn't be able to make the double builds because of the limit I immediately contacted onell and asked what they wanted to do. Being the cool guys they are they said it was fine and not to worry about it.

Also this figure is fucking awesome.

Huh, I would have thought the purchase limit thing would have been baked into the store itself. Well, lucky you, you are one of the few who will be able to make the dual Villser builds in the proper Standard color.

I would do a lot to get a few light blue axis joints from the drop, I missed getting them :c
>>
I got my Villser today, and I'm actually a little disappointed. Cool looking figure, but it's less posable than I thought it would be (that's on me, I took detail lines for joint cuts) and so many of the parts feel monopurpose. Granted, I've never gotten much into the mix-and-match. No knock on Matt, you can't please all of the people all of the time.
>>
>>6473798
I just wish it had 1) an elbow, I thought that arm part was two parts and could rotate and 2) the the top of the foot was sloped down, the bend in the knees makes it hard for them to stand without being hunched over.

Shit man, this is beautiful. It's like you took Matt's two bipedal builds, smashed them together, and pushed them further. I like the hose connecting to the arm. And this REALLY makes me sad that I don't have a second Villser or matching axis joints. Damn, it looks awesome.

Regarding the new black/trans pink Phanost--do y'all think it's playing with fire putting that painted black scarf onto the painted pink Pheyden head? It feels like a squeaky tight fit, and I feel like this is just asking for paint rub to happen. I mean, I know someone in the thread recently said that Glyos paint is some of the strongest out there, but I'm still kinda wary, yknow?

>>6474434
Speaking of paint- Bio Phase Pheyden's joints were a fucking nightmare. One of the legs was pretty much stuck on to the point where I was afraid I'd break the joint if I forced it. The figure looks fantastic, but it was frustrating to loosen the joints.
>>
>>6473848
I was also hoping for a little more advancement in the arms. After seeing Noboto's arms, and how the angle of the cut allowed him to spread his arms outward, I hoped future figures would learn and grow from there. Oh well.

I'm quite pleased with my Villsers. No time to build yet, but I like them just as chunky bruisers. The only part I'm really displeased with is the biceps--no matter how you rotate them, they just look awkward and bulbous and break up the flow of the arms in a bad way.

Honest question, is it too late to get into glyos as a line or has there never been a better time?
>>
>>6474440
Little bitch bitching.

Can't you fucks just play with your toys and stfu?

Nothing but bitching and complaining here all the time no matter what.
>>
>>6474669
Its not too late in the sense that a good number of the same molds are available currently. It is too late in the sense that a good number of molds are also unavailable/retired/out of business and that's never good in a building toyline. The worst aspects are paint is far worse than it used to be and some of the more fun aspects like vinyl are on life support at best. So the true glory days are over, a common meme is glyos is kill and while it's not entirely true it's not entirely not either.
>>
>>6474669
It's a great time. Drops are frequent between companies, there's more sculpts than ever, and the community's doing great. Don't let the naysayers fool you, this is a fantastic hobby.
>>
>>6474700
Fair point, actually. I hate people like that just as much as you, I should have read through my post again before submitting it. The joints are absolutely fine now.

(Speaking of bitching, did you catch that one dude's rant on Instagram a few days ago? It was a massive wall of text about how he's basically become disheartened because he never gets freebies and he's had a couple inconveniences, lol.)
>>
>>6474701
>>6474669
Plus gobons will be in the next drop and they haven't been around in forever. And battle tribes (the best thing to come out of glyos since glyos) is dropping sunday. It's always a great time to get into glyos.
>>
>>6474395
Oh and thanks. The standard villser feels a little lacking to me, but they have great build potential. I like to imagine them as the bulbous, constantly-shapeshifting biomasses, basically like shoggoths. Like the form and reform and merge together on the fly and the sculpt really reflects that. I honestly wish I'd gotten the transparent ones too.

Your a good dude for rereading your post and seeing how this place sounds most of the time.

I missed the ig bs post what was his photo of? Typical of a handful of collectors every year. That said an equal amount or more find Glyos and jump in every year as well.

Most of the quitters usually buy very little to begin with or came in hard then immediately a drop or two later barely buy anything.

Yeah, he's not the only one who sings that song in the Glyos fandom. I remember when Matt was including the little notepad with Marc's Glyos art on it in some orders - so much butthurt from the ones that didn't get it.

The freebies have long been a topic of pissyness for Glyos fans.

Man, TJ is relatively new to the Glyos scene, but in the Kamen Rider threads and on /toy/ in general we've know him for a long time. Dude definitely IS an asshole. One well-known example: a fan once sent him a huge box of free toys. He opened it on camera, then proceeded to get fucking bummed out and publicly chastise the guy for putting duct tape on a belt which he would now need to clean. Who fucking gets toys for free and then bitches about them to their entire fanbase? Sometimes I can't believe TJ still even has any fans. Or another time he included his female neighbor in one of his videos, and proceeded to ignore or speak rudely and condescendingly to her for the entire video. He's quite an immature prick, he just hasn't exposed himself as such in the Glyos community specifically.

I understand where he's coming from. I'm one of those people who have only ever gotten phase arms, axis sets, and crayboths from his orders instead of whole travelers, test shots, and wave previews. It's a fundamental problem that arises because of Matt's liberality with such freebies. I've felt the disappointment of getting "just a crayboth?" from Glyos orders. Meanwhile, I got two free warps packs and a old head from a Callgrim order and a felt like a winner.

He's also correct about the clique/circlejerk being really defensive. On the OTT you could never complain about anything without prefacing with "Matt's great but . . ." and you'd still get people like kent telling you "then don't buy it if you have a problem with it". /toy/ and the old #glyos (the one I started up, not the new official one) were the only real avenues of frank discussion in the glysosphere.

That said, top wew what a sperg.
>>
Hey you know it's still freebies. "Just a Crayboth" or some extra build bits is stuff you would never have otherwise. I know I would have never bought a cray on my own until I had a few in hand as stoways. I don't know the method to Matt's decisions, other than bigger orders tend to get more freebies. I feel like we shouldn't antagonize Matt for his freebies. (Not that anyone is right now) If you get something extra, come talk about it and show us. We're not all here to whine about line, or want to sit and grind our teeth about paint or molds. Some of us just want to buy cool plastic and show builds.

Matt does come in here, i wouldn't want to make him feel bad about the little extra he tosses in for his customers. I'm no shill or anything, but when it comes to Glyos, what we have is a almost entirely consistent line of good quality sculpts and colorways, with just a dollop of risky colorways and releases. I don't think he's charges more than what's fair for his product, with shipping. So if you get a little cray-boy and a phase arm in your order, that's like a "thank you" or a "please come again". If you get some off the wall fig or colorway that hasn't been seen, I'm very certain is because he wants it leaked and talked about. The rampant speculation and guessing games we play before drops land is part of the Glyos fan experience.

I stopped posting freebies long ago because of all the bitching. I think it's pretty damn random. I have put in HUGE orders and gotten maybe a cray. I have put in small orders and gotten 2-3 full figures tossed in. I don't believe I've ever gotten a "preview" item. I would post that for sure just to share with people what's coming down the pike. I've never gotten older figures tossed in...just current drop stuff. But, I've seen people get some sweet older figures from time to time.
>>
>>6477219
Um but it's Matt's work that he's shilling out. The Robo Force kit might very well his magnum opus. It's been years and we're stil discovering builds like the AT-AT not too long ago. And he nailed it on the soldier head sculpt.

Dr Can't really doesn't have much to do with it other then selling it or hiring Matt to do it.
>>
>>6477253
I'm sorry that the reception you've gotten has be poor. I still like posting my freebies. It's ok if you rather not, my dude.
>>

Yeah I've always had it where it seemed like I spend less and get more free things.

You think it's bad now, you should have seen back in the day. Matt was trying to get Gobon done and out but was having problems with the weight and design. They set up the shipping boxes and randomly threw Gobon test shots in there like shooting hoops. He also put some in the big spenders boxes and some in the people who ordered very little. You should've seen the reaction!!! More salt than the Dead Sea.
>>
>>6477264
I think that's how freebies are distributed. After the initial orders, just take a bunch of every drop figure and toss 'em in at random. It's pure luck, and if people bitch about it, then they've just exposed themselves as entitled manchildren.

I've been supporting Onell since around the time Glyos launched. I remember reading coverage about Pheyden and Exellis on CollectionDX back in 2007, and before that, seeing Matt's custom figures featured on microforever.com.

I've been lucky enough to snag early colorways, a bunch of production molds that appear to be out of commission now, several Custom Corps figures, and even a couple Microshin heads (because I happened to be at Grass Hut in Portland, OR at the right time).

Here's the thing: I've paid for everything I've wanted. Or I've missed it, because it sold out. I've never expected to get anything for free, and anyone with that mindset needs to reevaluate their relationship with toys. Glyos doesn't owe you anything.

Matt's always been kind—much more so than nearly any other toy manufacturer, big or small—to throw in freebies. 99% of the time I've received my order, there's a Crayboth or Phase Arm or Axis Joint set stowed away in there too. Every time, I think, "Wow, what a nice guy."

That's why people get defensive—because one person's sense of entitlement reflects badly on all of us. Not everyone who collects Glyos is playing the freebies game.
>>
>>6477521 (cont'd)
Secrets and surprises have always been part of the Glyos experience, but they're entirely transactional. Back in the day, there were these little games (like the Cliffs of Granthan, but more rudimentary), and if you beat them, you'd unlock a figure. The original Classified Sarvos was one example, IIRC. You would then PAY FOR for the figure. And it was okay to hide stuff behind a little challenge back then because "mystery" items didn't sell out within ten minutes.

When the fandom grew exponentially and "cartjacking" started to happen, Matt very quickly realized the fairest way to give everyone what they wanted was on a first-come, first-served basis. Old-timers don't get special treatment. Trust me. There's a lot I've missed out on because I wasn't fast enough.

The people who do seem to receive sneak peeks and substantial freebies are either lucky (I was one of the lucky people to get a Gobon when Matt was tinkering with the weight balance), or are Matt's friends—like, friends who know him because they've hung out together. Many of these people met Matt through Glyos, and have gone on to start their own Glyos-compatible toylines, but they didn't get to that stage simply by showing up for every drop, commenting on the blog, or sending emails to Onell. There are relationships happening behind the scenes as people make an effort to actually meet each other and make a connection beyond "hey give me all that cool free secret stuff."

I think people forget that there's only a few hundred Glyos collectors out there. It's pretty easy to track people across social media platforms and comment sections and see who has what, if you really want to dig into it. There aren't many test shots and unseen figures floating around—there'd be a lot more posting (and drama) about them if there really was a secret club who got all the exclusive shit.
>>
>>6477522
Finally, if you really, really want freebies that "no one else" gets, here's a tip: try placing an order that doesn't coincide with a drop night, at a time when the blog is relatively quiet. I've done this a few times over the years to stock up on parts and have seen some surprise heads/figures (that would eventually show up in the store a couple weeks later). No guarantees, of course. And if you're placing the order solely in the hopes of receiving an awesome freebie, you're probably not going to get it.

I hope so. Too much paint and it also brings the price up to the 35 range, in addition to limiting build options.

Holy shit!!!! It must be time for Kent's annual fucking drop. Nice to know I'll be in my 60s by the time he get to making the other robots from the kit or the actual Vader rip off. I don't know if I can afford much Glyos on social security.

>>6479083
Who cares? Kent likes making toys from 1978...we already know that; nothing has changed. That April Fools press release is still probably the gayest thing in Glyos history...because it wasn't a fucking joke! Would've been epic if it wasn't real. What a shithead releasing that on April Fool's day and then actually thinking people give a shit about a fake Darth Vader rip-off being resurrected. Fuck Kent.

TOYFINITY Presents: The Return of the Greatest Villain from ALL of the 70’s Space Franchises – ROBO FORCE’S THE KNIGHT OF DARKNESS!

For immediate release – April 1st, GROVERS MILL NJ – Somber. Powerful. A grim-masked menace that strikes terror into the bravest heart. A perfect bad guy for long hours of imagination and excitement.

– Ideal Toys Catalog 1978

So read the official description of the awesomest bad guy from the greatest space franchise in the 1970’s, Ideal Toys’ SPACE TRAVEL AND RECONNAISSANCE (S.T.A.R.) TEAM™ – THE KNIGHT OF DARKNESS™. And now, HE’S BACK.

Originally created by a nameless Ideal executive in the late 70’s as a way to revive the long-dormant IDEAL’S ZEROIDS WORKER ROBOTS OF THE FUTURE™ franchise and their own SPACE TRAVEL AND RECONNAISSANCE (S.T.A.R.) TEAM™ franchise of the early 70’s, Ideal Toys’ SPACE TRAVEL AND RECONNAISSANCE (S.T.A.R.) TEAM™ was a completely original concept revived by Ideal because they knew kids of 1978 were dying for some awesome space-based action figures for some reason. With impeccable sculpting prowess, THE KNIGHT OF DARKNESS™ was formed from the imagination of one of the artisans of Ideal Toys to provide the key figure in the franchise which the heroic ZEM-21™and ZEROID SCOUTS™ could battle in endless original adventures throughout a child’s imagination. Along with their human friend KENT AND HIS COSMIC CRUISER™ and their S.T.A.R. TEAM SPACE HAWK™, ZEM-21™ and the ZEROID SCOUTS™ battled THE KNIGHT OF DARKNESS™. His magnificent black and silver uniform encased THE KNIGHT OF DARKNESS™ in a cloud of mystery, as his futuristic weapon cut a path through the toy shelves of the time, destroying all the cyborg and military heroes that were his competition in the 12-inch action figure market.

>>6479130
But THE KNIGHT OF DARKNESS™ had one problem – he was just too evil and imposing for the children of the time, who had never seen such an evil and imposing character in any medium ever. He’s just so evil and imposing and dark and knight-ish. So after only one series, Ideal Toys’ SPACE TRAVEL AND RECONNAISSANCE (S.T.A.R.) TEAM™ disappeared from the shelves, never to return. Or so everyone thought.

Now, after multiple years of complex legal matters, Toyfinity Toys has removed Ideal Toys’ SPACE TRAVEL AND RECONNAISSANCE (S.T.A.R.) TEAM™ from the scrapheap of toy history and they will now be part of the revamped ROBO FORCE™ franchise. Toyfinity CEO and Owner John Kent said, when reached at his new mansion in Grovers Mill, NJ, “I couldn’t be happier with the acquisition of Ideal Toys’ SPACE TRAVEL AND RECONNAISSANCE (S.T.A.R.) TEAM™, which will now be known as ROBO FORCE’S SPACE TEAM™. I mean, Starriors wasn’t available and I wasn’t paying six more figures for the rights to MANTECH™ and STARCOMM™, so this was the next best thing, I guess. At least until we finish up the DOCTOR DETROIT™ license.”

To mark the occasion, Toyfinity Toys has prepared a special piece of artwork showing ROBO FORCE’S THE KNIGHT OF DARKNESS™ dispatching some type of robotic entities and reclaiming his territory on collectors’ shelves, in a piece done by Robby Musso, acclaimed artist who has worked on many, many comic book projects. Additionally, ROBO FORCE’S ZEM-21™ and ROBO FORCE’S SCOUTS OF ZETON™ will appear in an all-new ROBO FORCE’S SPACE TEAM™ comic book on Toyfinity.com to continue their adventures in the cosmos later in 2014. The very first ROBO FORCE’S THE KNIGHT OF DARKNESS™ action figure will appear later in 2014 utilizing the revolutionary GYLOS™ System from Onell Design , with ROBO FORCE’S ZEM-21™ to appear in 2015, maybe.

ROBO FORCE’S KNIGHT OF DARKNESS™ – dare you add him to your shelves? Your other toys will be terrified as #DARKNESSFALLS.

These are the kinds of comments people were making on blogs:

"Hmmm, considering it's April 1st, I'm gonna go ahead take this with a grain of salt."

"The PR reads a little like an April Fool's joke as well. By that, I mean a little too fan-boyish and casual for something coming from a PR department."

This whole thing was funny if it was an April Fool's joke, but Kent was serious. What a loser. This was back in April of 2014. Fucking put out the intended colorway or just go away. Nobody even cares, so it really doesn't matter. Just dumb and funny...

This press release was posted all over the internet. More comments:

"LOL “never seen such an evil and imposing character in any medium ever.” Except that the characters were blatant ripoffs of Darth Vader, C-3P0 and R2-D2."

"Nice! Great April Fools write-up! "

"Dammit, I can’t believe I got punked. See, April Fools jokes are usually funny because they are so impossible, this is totally in the realm of possibility, so it’s just a tease. I shake my head in disappointment."

That wasn't that bad. Matt did the d sign and sculpt for the Knight's head. You can even see his Zem design there.
>>
oh cool it's time to complain about darkness soldier again because that hasn't been run into the fucking ground yet right

I really like the head sculpt, regardless of source material or other complaints. I just wish the base body wasn't a Glyarmored Glyan- Gylans are the weakest link when it comes to Glyarmor compatibility.

>>6479135
On the topic of Darkness Solder colorways, maybe we'll see the 'standard' colorway soon now that we have production capes? It wouldn't have looked right without one.

Fuck, why couldn't we have gotten this instead of just the head? I'd love to get a more slender and human-like Traveler body with hands that can actually hold shit.

>>6478246
I spent more than that on almost every drop from 2010-2015, but I've gotten plenty of stuff free. I have also nearly stopped buying glyos this year because I'm sick of supporting a line that's no longer doing things I enjoy. Paint is worse and most of my favorite items are no longer produced. New items tend to look far more bubbly and rounded. I always saw people saying they didn't want to get into glyos because everything looked like the michelen man, I never thought that was true until you start putting recent items like Noboto, Mushi, Glyarmor, Vilser, Darkness soldier etc next to eachother. The neat mechanical lines of exellis and vinyl have been dropped and retired for the most part. SAD!

These two zeroids are probably the most fun I've ever had with a single Glyos order just by itself.

So many contained builds and just enough parts to be creative but so many that you run out of uses.

My opinion on roboforce has completely changed.

I'm already a little bored of villser. Like I made a cool build and I don't feel like even taking it apart. I'm still having a blast with those red zeroids though.

Also, I got my battle tribes stuff in the mail today. I love the vampires and I'm glad I got two vampire bats. I might try and off load the purple ones though, they're not really doing it for me. I'll take some pictures tomorrow.

How am I wrong? Refute it. I'm in every single glyos group on FB and the boards and I've seen the same one guy who always posts glyos pics post a couple of builds and then literally 3 or 4 other photos. If the entire glyos fandom is supposedly so amped up about a new figure then where are the pics? Where are the builds? We used to get more haul pics of the 36th release of Noboto than we have of this supposedly super exciting new figure. If a full new mold can't energize the fan base then what hope is there?

>t. Guy who futzed with vilser for 20 minutes and realized it's awful
>>
>>6487043
People are absolutely amped up about the Villser, I think you're just looking in the wrong places. It's been all over Instagram and the Alliance on FB.
>>
>>6487043
I don't think it's terrible but it definitely could have been better. It also should have been the Delphi first then an extra set for the Vilser. The arms are bad, no getting around that. Having a torso piece that is roughly traveller sized that has ports on both the front and back though is incredibly useful. Also I love the unique accent pieces like the front hose, the head cap and the backpack. At this point most limbs will feel varying degrees of same so it's detail parts that will make or break future figures IMO.

I disagree on the arms, I am in love with the hands, and to stock range of motion is much better than other releases. You are right about the small detail bits though

Are the gray parts on this completely coated in paint? It looks like it and if so count me out on Hun-dred. The zeroid and maxx look cool though.
>>
>>6487962

Yeah sucks that we're deprived of matching matte black arms. No blanks this time, either.

>>
>>6487962
I'm guessing all the RF parts are on the same sprue so molding half in black and half in grey was an impossibility.

It does look a bit bad, sorta chunky, but on the other hand, that grey does really remind me of Hun-dred. And since Glyos paint is so strong I'm not really worried about it scratching or flaking.
>>
>>6487656

How do they compare size wise to Meg's Construx? The new He-Man and Skeletor could use addition people to fight.

>>6488202
>I'm guessing all the RF parts are on the same sprue so molding half in black and half in grey was an impossibility.

But the weird thing is that the club exclusive Maxx in "bootleg" colors had red legs, green arms, blue body, yellow head, and orange hands. Plus a few RF figures come with extra sets of arms. So it seems possible, but I guess he goes with paint for more control over colors.

This thing? It's in the wiki under Ding. Why Ding?
>>
>>6488646
>>6488761
I'm gonna assume this is how the parts are distributed between sprues then. Looking at the arrangement of parts on Hun-dred, there isn't a clean separation of parts that could have been molded in another color without still having to paint. And there might have been a weird mismatch between paint and PVC if they'd tried to go partial molded color, partial paint.

>>
>>6494900
Like the old Gobon, but in a different color.
>>
>>6494910
Gobon fought the Villser and rebelled from their masters after the Old War. Several have said it will probably be changed up from a remolding. New alternate head or maybe circuit tampos
>>
>>6494917
Matt said there'd be a Gobon in the next drop, nothing about it being updated.
>>
>>6494951
Yeah, Matt never implied it would be updated/changed in any way...that's just dumbfucks making shit up again.
>>
Please. You know gobon is going to be slathered in paint with a new tampo and glyarmor!! Joking aside I hope. I'd like to see him in the pheyden colors from last drop!
>>
Glyknights, Gobons, likely Villser for Sept. Oct feature Skullboto and likely Skeleden. Any others we know?
>>
I'm hoping for some kind of red Villser, like the color of the stowaway Cray from the last drop, maybe with orange highlights.

Also, I'd love to see a full Argen/Gobon/Phaseon 'Villser Defense Force' Gendrone lineup. Something like Shock Force, unified color schemes and all Gendrones making a return at once.
