Unknown Power Lords Pre-Order Starting Soon

http://www.sourcehorsemen.com/?p=2152
You probably read this report on Source Horsemen, but if not here it is again:

"We’re gearing up for another Power Lords release on Store Horsemen right as we ring in the new year, and the pre-order for those will be going up within the next week or two. Details coming soon here on Source Horsemen."

With no specific indication as to the when, the what, or the how much, we suggest you speculate wildly in anticipation of this whatever it is.

Review: Four Horsemen Power Lords Adam Power Action Figure

Four Horsemen Power Lords Adam Power Action FigureI think I mentioned before when Power Lords was first told to me as under consideration for a revival, I wasn't quite sure I remembered what it was. Adam Power 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 Outer Space Men 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.

Review: Four Horsemen Power Lords Ggripptogg Action Figure


Four Horsemen Power Lords Ggripptogg Action FigureAfter the first year of Power Lords I've wound up with 5 different "pre-paints" of the Ggripptogg mold, plus the orange and blue flavors for 8 total. And here's the 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.

The big surprise at Comic-Con?  Raygoth.  His shiny chest was on display as a 1:1 prototype, alongside a swell variant head for Sydot.

Click here to see the gallery I assembled over at 16bit.com, because why not.

Review: Four Horsemen Power Lords Ggrapptikk Action Figure


Four Horsemen Power Lords Ggrapptikk Action FigureOriginally 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 blue Ggrapptikk. 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!

The one new item in this sale is a "variant head pack," with 7 noggins - all 6 Power Soliders plus a green Grunt helmet.  No price has been given yet, but it goes on sale at 3:00 PM Eastern.


If the previous Outer Space Men sale was any indication a couple of years back, the pricing may be very good - so keep your peepers peeled if you missed something!
