Colourforms Repo "Outer Space Men" - Pt 7 FINAL Xodiac, the Man from Saturn

Lastest but not leastest in our look at the repo Colourforms Outer Space Men line-up is Xodiac, the Man from Saturn! He too was equipped with a helmet as part of the original series, but not the repos. NOW, maybe the repos did come with helmets and I'm not aware of it, it's just that I've never seen them for sale with helmets (and to be sure, I don't look every day either!). I really do enjoy these little guys. If there's any drawback to them, it's that a couple of them have a hard time standing up because the bottom of their feet tend to be a bit rounded on some figures. But, a little bit of bending and finagling and voila', they stand - usually, mostly! Enjoy! Opa Fritz

Here's Xodiac posed next to the 60mm yellow astronaut I posted a couple of weeks ago

Here he is posed next to a Marx spaceship. He would be a bit small to fit in its cockpit though!

Colourforms Repo "Outer Space Men" - Pt 6 Orbitron, the Man from Uranus

Orbitron was one of the original Colourforms which did not come with a helmet as far as I can tell - maybe because of that huge brainy head of his! That being said, I like that brainy Kopf because it mimics some of the outer space monsters which appeared in '50s & '60s sci-fi flicks and television series (hmmmm, come to think of it, that might be something interesting to research - brainy-headed movie and TV aliens!). Enjoy! Opa Fritz

Here's a brainy alien from 'This Island Earth' - he sports the claws modeled on Orbitron. Do you know of any more?

Colourforms Repo "Outer Space Men" - Pt 5 Electron+, the Man from Pluto

Pluto, the last planet in the solar system! Oh wait, it's been downgraded to a lump of rock floating way the hell out there in space hasn't it? Damn space bureaucrats - make up what little minds you have! In any case, as part of the original Colourforms series, he was one of the smaller figures (Alpha 7, The Man From Mars being the smallest) and included a helmet. The repo has no helmet. Enjoy! Opa Fritz

Colourforms Repo "Outer Space Men" - Pt 4 Commander Comet, the Man from Venus

I like how Colourforms made each of these figures come from a different planet in our solar system vs. from a different solar system! It kind of brings them a little closer to home! 😄 In the original Colourforms line, this figure was about medium sized and included a helmet, but as a repo he's way smaller and comes without a helmet. Enjoy! Opa Fritz
