The Outer Space Men, LLC Outer Space Men Cosmic Radiation Jack Asteroid Action FigureIt's kind of funny, but it's possible that Cosmic Radiation Jack Asteroid sat unreviewed in my house for close to five years - I picked up a lot of these guys to open and enjoy, but also to review, and the reviews frequently take precedence. Who needs to be written and shot quickly? That's who gets opened - so I just grabbed Jack since he's been one of many glow or white OSM who needed to finally be opened up.

If you've been reading this site, you know the score. He matches Cosmic Radiation Terra Firma [FOTD #2,599] and the rest of their glowing cohorts, although his layouts matches hers particularly well. He's also nearly identical to Cosmic Radiation Zero Gravity [FOTD $2,130] except for the head, the helmet, and the paint layout on the blaster. There's a silver stripe down the suit, silver gloves, silver boots, silver "accordion joints," and the like. He's a roughly 3 3/4-inch scale figure that pops apart at each joint, allowing you to swap in "straight arms" or "bent arms," or other Glyos-compatible parts and limbs.

One quirk I experienced with this one was that his backpack peg did not want to go in his back - maybe it's because it's chilly, but nothing I could do could force the peg in there. As such, I heated the figure's back in boiling water, which gave it a little flexibility and that made it much easier to get the backpack in there. It might just be my sample - most Glyos toys since 2010 or so don't tend to require to be heated for the parts to fit.

The Glyos glow plastic is good. It's always good. The clear colorless plastic on the helmet looks like a retro toy, and the silver paint looks nice when the lights are on. Sadly it doesn't quite shine when the lights are out, like vac-metal silver, but it still looks pretty gorgeous and does a nice job highlighting the sculpted detail. He's got silver eyes and matching shaggy hair, which again really pops with that silver paint.

Not content to merely be a good figure, there's a removable helmet with flip-up visor, a removable backpack (that is rough to insert in the back hole), a Levity blaster, and a flag pole. A flag was sadly not included with any of the bagged production figures, so you would have to go make your own if you wanted one. It really does seem kind of silly without the flag part, particularly after we've had dozens of the things.

I would recommend everybody reading this to get at least one or two The Outer Space Men action figures, just because they're fun. It's a line of toys from the late 1960s that was revived in 2010 and, somehow, still trickles out a few low-run figures nearly every year. They're not going to change your life, but they certainly knocked mine in an interesting direction - and they look nice with other similarly sized figure lines. Is he worth $25? I wouldn't say it is going to make you happy if you've got dozens of these guys already, but if you've never picked up any I'd say it's not terribly outside the realm of "worth it" given the size of the runs and the fact that new mass-produced figures are, for now, sometimes as high as $16.99. But that's too high, and should probably change - I wouldn't be at all surprised if companies start to shy away from "collector" figures and go back to 1990s-style one-line-fits-all releases just because the olds are running out of space and money.
