looks like the elbows joints are just swivel. What a joke.

These are really throw aways. Soft bathtub toy sculpts and colors, little articulation
Nothing more than something else for Funko Pop crowd. Sad, this would be a great system to use for power armor figures |

I guess most people who see these probably have no idea what Glyos is lol Axis Joints are designed to add articulation, as Glyos in general lacks it. The problem with heavy articulation/parts count is that it really drives up the price for these figures in particular, since they're completely solid PVC (ie: you can chuck it at a wall at full force without any damage, I've done this before to confirm it). Axis Joint sets are usually $4 a pop from Onell Design's website, so making the articulation equivalent on what one would add to these figures would make them closer to $15, and that's assuming elbow/knee bend and bicep/thigh swivels would be adequate for some. You can really go all out with the system if you have enough joint parts. I've seen a few builds done literally just out of joint sets. |

Yeah, Glyos isn't exactly a great self contained experience. A lot can be done with spare parts, but these figures do lean to the Knights of the Slice side of things (the other mass produced retail Glyos line, kinda similar build pattern) rather than Toyfinity, which produces some really modular 80's styled robot designs. The only articulated fully humanoid Glyos figures that come to mind are Four Horsemen's Power Lords, but those were kinda just compatible in terms of "you could remove their limbs and there'd be a Glyos peg."

That's kind of badass. Might have to look into these.

Besides ThreeZero and the 2 Funko Legacy figures Fallout gets very little figure wise. |

These really aren't that bad. Similar to really well sculpted ReAction Figures, with some extra swivels. Not for everyone, but I was pleasantly surprised.
Will have a full gallery and write up in a few days.

There is a new wave out now at Gamestop and Target.
I picked up the new Power Armors that I have found and the Nick Valentine figure. T45 Hot Rod T-51 Vault Tec Power Armor The pink X01 is a Target exclusive. Nick Valentine I have yet to see any of the Vault dwellers yet or the Gamestop exclusive Nuka Cola power armor but i do have them on pre-order from Gamestop. Toy Pizza also had a pre-view of series 3 at DCON over the weekend |
