White with black paint accents, 16 pieces

Some fun examples of how the parts can be reconfigured from the wiki with white backgrounds)

Pretty versatile toy. Block and pipe shapes allow for a lot of fiddling.

Rearranged it a number of times while watching “The wrong Missy” with Mrs and Pye on the couch last night. Very stupid-funny movie with a couple of good slapstick moments.

Dead Guy – Roman, c. 300 BCE, terra cotta

Part of a tableau depicting a battle between the Greeks and the Amazons.  Photo by Charles Reeza at the Museum of Art and History, Geneva.

People have been fooling with little toy soldiers and civilians for a while now.
That booty just makes me laugh. I can’t help but wonder if one of the other figures had a tiny arrow or three in them. (I know if I had made a tableau, at least one of them would have an arrow in the rump.) That shoulder blade hole would hold a weapon nicely. #toyphotography

Callgrim The Order and warp pack.
I am unsure which specific wave this is from, because there are a lot of different types of theses dudes out there. If any members of the glyos gang out there can help, I would appreciate it! I didn’t have much luck in this case with the wiki or Rawshark’s I’d page. Maybe it was dyed by the previous owner?

Plastic is less brittle, a little more pliable, like a classic star wars figure. It has memory and returns to shape pretty quickly.
25 pieces total, a lot of attention to paint on the lines of the figure in a dark blue / indigo too match the head, gloves and boots. Reminds me a bit of a skeleton in hockey gear.
He came with a warp gear pack, which is 8 of the pieces, including 2 that could be alternate heads.

Azure Pterosaurian

Name is probably a nod to dragon ball z: kakarot, and that dactyl head is keen, but I can’t resist the Octopus / Cthulhu alternate noggin. This is currently my only figure with this “demon” mold set and my only opaque blue. Six heads, each more villainous than the next, including a skull, bat, hood, horned demon, the aforementioned Pterodactyl, and Cthulhu. Included wings can be affixed to the back (or and comfy glyos location, it has a switch pin for male or female attachment) Nice paint details in light blue, red, orange, gray and chrome. Comes with creature feet (and alternate boots), a battle axe and broadsword. I enjoy this colorway, and might look for a more sinister color, like dark green, tan, black, or maybe even an ivory white as an alternate, given the different heads. #Battletribes #Wave12 #Glyos #Spymonkeycreations #Onelldesigns #Dragonballz #Kakarot #toyphotography

Speed racer game

Random though just came to mind.

I remember my local arcade had the Namco Speed Racer game.

Sit down driving game with a steering wheel with all the buttons like the cartoon. I am ready for a console / pc reboot of this. 2 player with speed and racer x missions would just be dandy if done well.

Snake eyes redux

Dark ninja configured somewhere between it’s double homages to GI Joe’s Snake-eyes and Chuck Norris Karate Kommandos. Love the new sculpts! The heads and boots assortment is fun, and gi-style torso makes for a nice addition. Giving them a couple of martial arts weapons was quite welcome, too. Red bo staff, nunchuck and sai, and fully painted pair of swords. The nifty belt/sword holster/loincloth flap thing is *very snug* but is easily loosened with a soak in warm water or a warming blow from a hair dryer, and a small sword holder pin fits nicely on the back as well. (Not a scabbard, but a loop) I was not as big into ninja guys as my peers as a kid, but martial arts movies and comics were a big part of my entertainment diet for quite a while. When I was 12 or so, that is pretty prime fun zone stuff. My brother was more into GI Joe figures than I was, but I dug the comics. I’d say it was a bonding experience of common interests, seeing as later on we grew to have fairly different tastes. I remember when we sent away for classic all-black Snake-eyes back in the good old / bad old times in Boynton Beach, about 82 or so. (He shared many parts with other figures of that series, except for his unique head sculpt. He was designed to save Hasbro money in the paint application process, as his first figure was made of black plastic with no paint applied for details, and his head did not require any detail because of the mask.) But it made him pretty cool as a toy, because a good guy ninja all in black was a fairly new concept to us. #Battletribes #spymonkeycreations #Onelldesigns #glyos #glyosbuild #toyphotography #wave21 #ramble

Elite Gohlem – Toro, captain of the empyrean elite guard, the Gearo last line of defense!

I really just love me some Gohlems. hard to see via my potato phone camera in this light, but it is quite pearlescent in the sun. The solid red makes a difference between him and the red and steel pearlized “Optimus Primealike” of Empyreus 2.0

29 parts total, with the usual excellent black paint detail in faces and chest crest / square inserts.
Comes with the usual alternate heads, scythe and straight blade weapons.

W.O.M.O.M.F.G

Weaponeers of Monkaa Outlandish Mini Figure Gohlem, with black paint details. W.O.M.O.M.F.G. What is cooler than a sweet glyos robot? One in the color scheme in the M.U.S.C.L.E. men flesh tones. Note the ab piece is removed so you can have him extra stubby to match the style, too. The custom omfg logo on the chest is also a spiffy variant. #weaponeersofmonkaa #spymonkeycreations #gohlem #womomfggohlem #octobertoys #designercon2014 #Onelldesigns https://www.instagram.com/p/CAT9YEggGPq/?igshid=luhu9l28bc1

Unpacked some goodies out of quarantine mail. A bundle of Bog-nars and a pair of Phaseon robots comprise a lovely team of green sourced through the glyos exchange.
I am a big fan of Bog-Nar, a nice hybrid of Swamp Thing and Man-thing. The alternate fish-man Gol / zombie nekroid noggins make for excellent use of the colorway.

Helminth T. Gusano, Jr, the Apple-headed battle worm.
He is not happy, trying to live up to his father’s legacy. He is also a pacifist and prefers beekeeping to pit fighting…however, “needs must.” Have pity on the poor soul, but mind the mace.

Rainbow warrior to the rescue!
Maybe I should cycle the spectrum across all the source figures, just to see how well that comes together. Have a whole army if multihued heroes! Let them Duke if out with the granite Gray Gohlems?

Or just fight alongside a giant Kermit the frog?
