NEWS: Onell Design Previews ''Henshin Force'' Glyos


It's no secret that the guys and girls at Onell Design are fans of Microman and the Micronauts, so it comes as no surprise to see their upcoming Glyos drop paying homage to another classic toy from Takara.

Taking their cue from the Henshin Cyborg range of toys, the figures are not only a tribute to the line that started it all, but - more importantly for Glyos fans - look to be the first  full-production wave to use the new Axis Joint System.  An earlier run of pre-production prototype joints sold out in under 10 minutes, so you know demand for this wave will be high!

Glyos collectors will already know this isn't the first time Onell Design have paid tribute to the Henshin Cyborg line: an early custom release featured a number of ''Walshin'' figures, including the incredible Walshin Phanost, a superb homage to the ultimate bad guy, King Walder, but this is the first time we've seen a full production run.  

No further details are available yet, but we'll keep you posted.

UPDATE: Matt Doughty of Onell Design has confirmed that these are indeed full production runs and will include transparent Gendrone Buildmen, Sincroids, Travelers, Axis Joints and Phase Arm sets.  He also commented that white, black, grey and green glow-in-the-dark Axis Joints are also on the cards and more details will be released early next week.

  2. Yeah, I'm looking forward to getting my hands on the new Axis Joints and the Henshin Cyborg-inspired colouring is a definite plus!

  3. Don't own any of these Glyos but from what am reading and seeing about them they are very cool and with the whole Henshin-Microman thing going for them i must have a couple at least.

  4. They are very cool. Don't expect Microman-levels of poseability (it's not what they're about) and buy two or three (or more if you can), as the fun comes when you combine them together - the Buildmen are especially good for that.
