I didn't see this coming. In a post called "<a href="http://www.powerlordsreturn.com/?p=3047"><b>Announcing The Return of The Power Lords!!!</b></a>" we're seeing news that the line is actually set to re-debut at Comic-Con in a couple of weeks, as four-inch figures.

is - as are his siblings - a wonderfully engineered figure. The Glyos
system was adapted to a so-called "Glybrid" joint system in which we
got the functionality of Glyos and Hasbro's ball joints in a 3 3/4-inch
humanoid figure. So no matter what, this is a good figure with a great
range of motion. When placed in context of its line, it becomes a bit
of a bore being one of only two body types during the line's first year
and a half, give or take. Endless repaints are a bitter pill to
swallow, with other Glyos-compatible lines usually cranking out an
all-new figure ever year or so with more customization options. It
seems almost unfair to judge this figure for things outside its control,
because the plastic person presently performs pretty admirably.</span><br />

Now here's some news! <a href="http://www.powerlordsreturn.com/?p=2593">The Four Horsemen posted this to PowerLordsReturn.com</a>:<br />
<br />
1. The long-awaited green Power Soldier and Lord Power are due for Fan Club members on February 20 for $10 each. Non-members get a shot on February 22.<br />
<br />
2. The existing Fan Club membership is being held over - so if you're a member, it counts for this new drop.<br />
<br />
3. Future figures will be financed by Kickstarter. No dates are known as of yet, but with the Mythic Legions (now non-Glyos) coming up first it might be a while.Adam16bithttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17369348859276892966noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7490131025270789374.post-54103052426617231072014-12-22T15:33:00.003-08:002014-12-22T15:33:27.915-08:002 New Power Lords Coming - Hope You Love Green!While we have no pre-order dates or prices, there's <a href="http://www.sourcehorsemen.com/?p=2188">a post</a> and <a href="http://www.shopfourhorsemen.com/nebllopocso.html">two store product</a> <a href="http://www.shopfourhorsemen.com/daneposocso.html">info pages promoting</a> a pair of new figures.<br />

and his friends were not in my childhood toybox, and I checked with
some old friends who had some - but had no idea who or what they were.
I was a huge fan of the <i>Outer Space Men</i> as a concept - and the
revival - plus Glyos and the Four Horsemen usually bring great things.
And this is a pretty great thing - but the level of momentum and the
value of the club memebership left me wanting. These are all very good
figures, and I think that fans collecting them in the future (that is,
picking them up on eBay or in trades) are in for a big treat. But for
those of us in the present? The level of non-communication, the lack of
any idea when the third new sculpted body for this line will happen, and
the relatively weak roll-out over the last year makes me think that I
need to rescind my all-in attitude and cut back to just the full-painted
updates of vintage guys.</span><br />

kicker - this red version actually had more changes that surprised me.
Which is to say, any. The Four Horsemen gave us an all-new head,
all-new forearms, and the variant skirt/loincloth piece we first saw
debut on the Barlowe Concept Ggripptogg back in February.</span><br />

teased to fans as "Ultimate Edition Barlowe Tribute Ggripptogg figure"
in a solicitation for the $100 Volcan Rock level of the Power Lords Fan
Club, the plussed-up signed figure turned out to be the <a href="http://16bit.com/fotd/140716-power-lords-ggrapptikk.asp">blue <b> Ggrapptikk</b></a>.
He's a very low run painted figure, exclusive to club members. He
was $40 alone, or part of the $100 level - which was about $40 above the
next membership level, but signatures were exclusive to the higher club
level. He's twice the price of the regular red Ggripptogg, but you
get three extra heads, four extra arms, an extra skirt, and an extra
stick. Do you need these parts? Well, no, but it's a nice option to
have. The biggest complaint about this figure that I have is that he's a
"trooper" and yet army-building him is prohibitive due to price and the
low edition size. Ah well. At least it's pretty spectacular!</span><br />

figure that feels like it's joking around. From the waist on down, the
figure is the same as six previously-released Power Soldiers. The
torso, arms, and head are all new - plus there's a bonus head, which I
admit I don't think adds much to the set. The default head, Power
Staff, and rifle are a delight.</span><br />

The <a href="http://www.16bit.com/fotd/131206-power-lords-ggrapptikk-grunt-pink.asp">previous versions</a>
were basically unpainted test shots with a splash of black painted
highlights, and this release adds a little more paint and is dozens of
times better for it. The price went up $2, but you get painted claws,
painted spikes, painted pants, little computer elements, more paint
around the face, and even a new head sculpt and a new "skirt" piece -
that's a new codpiece on this fellow. If you compare it to similarly
sized figures from <i>The Outer Space Men</i> like Cyclops, Colossus
Rex, or Gamma X, even at the increased price it's unquestionably a
better deal providing more bang for your buck.</span><br />

its sibling and now that we've had a few of these guys, it's worth
looking at him again. I'm writing this just days after the
fully-painted figures Ggrabbtargg, Ggripptogg, and Ggrapptikk went on
sale giving us a grand total of 8 flavors of this mold with multiple
heads so far. In short, this is a mold that mere weeks from now, a lot
of fans are probably going to be ready to never ever want to buy again,
but it's still a good mold - this wasn't the best version in terms of
paint, but it's still charming. It just feels so, so much older than it
is given the advancements in deco we've had since February.</span><br />

Given the limited edition nature of these figures, it's a necessity.

No doubt due to Toy Tokyo needing to make a few bucks on the item, 2014's <i>Power Lords</i> exclusive <a href="http://www.16bit.com/fotd/140331-power-lords-barlowe-ggripptogg.asp"><b>Ggripptogg (Grey and Black)</b></a>
costs nearly twice as much as a normal Ggripptogg - even the ones with
added deco were only $15 each. It's a shame - not as bad as the <i>Outer Space Men</i>
of 2012, but what are you gonna do? I bought it, and curse me kilts,
it's good. This figure - and indeed everything Glyos always ever - can
benefit greatly from a color change, and it turns out that the
Ggripptogg body looks better with a) added paint and b) less pink. Who
knew?</span><br />

If what I saw in a video preview was right, the blue one with the bonus gear is exclusive to Power Lords Club members. Not a bad figure. Also note Adam Power and Lord Power each include bonus alternate heads.<br />
