The new set features three all-new figures, which push the boundaries of the Horsemen’s retro-hip sculpting as well as the Glyos figure design system with three unique and incredibly well executed figures. The Horsemen have been releasing a new set of Space Men about once a year, and they’re being as comprehensive as possible, with a line including both new versions of the original 1968 figures as well as characters based on the prototypes of the unreleased second wave, planned for 1969. So history kind of repeated itself when I didn’t catch up on the Four Horsemen’s newly relaunched toy line until this third wave hit… but I’m certainly glad I checked them out! The original 1968 figures based on Mel Birnkrant’s wildly imaginative alien creations were released well before my time, but when I first saw them as a kid I was instantly drawn to their retro sci-fi style and fun designs. I feel like I’m perpetually late to the game when it comes to the Outer Space Men. Orbitron, Gemini and Cyclops are all wonderful new additions to the retro-hip toy series, and prove that this property is in great hands. The fifth series of Outer Space Men has been released, along with the line’s first ever Deluxe figure.
