Are you SERIOUS?!? This is my FAVORITE toy line! :drool_y:

The Outer Space Men LLC - I'm curious sir, have you got any ties to Mel Birnkrant?

I'm looking VERY forward to these, to say the least... :cool_y:

EDIT: Just clicked the link...have I got to watch Fox News in order to see the cards?? ...Sheeesh...I LOVE the OSM, but watching those raving loons is a LOT to ask!
LOL ;)

Mel is one of my dearest and oldest friends as well as business partner. He had a lot to do with the art for the cards and will be autographing cards that will be randomly inserted into wax packs. No, you do not have to watch the video; the cards are just below if scroll down. Thanks so much, Gary.

Gary - I see! Thank YOU so much sir! :yes:


I'm wondering sir - what is YOUR opinion of the new OSM made by the Four Horsemen? I personally miss the rubber/bendy aspects, but its so GREAT that they are BACK in ANY form! :heart:

Take care -

Please stop calling me sir. You are making me feel really old. Please call me Gary. The 4H figures are great! I am very happy with them as is Mel. The full line of 13 figures both the first series of 7 and the never produced second series of 6 will eventually be out in the new format. Maybe one day you all will see some limited figures in the original format but for now everyone is really enjoying the new ones. Thanks, Gary.

I was addressing you as 'sir' out of respect, but I understand. :smile:

So then the second series WILL be made eventually, GREAT! :grin: (I was a little worried that if the first series didnt do well in today's market that they might not GET to the second series..this is great to hear!)

Of course I'd PREFER the originals, but $10 each sure beats HUNDREDS each in my book!

Thanks for the info Gary, and you have a teriffic site! :cool_y:

Take care -

But I would prefer them in their original format, so I'll see what the future brings!

I feel stupid, I can't find anything about trading cards on the website.

That said, I had some of these as a very young child and loved them. Years later, because no one else seemed to remember them, I thought I had made them up. Thankfully, that wasn't the case! :)

LANDING ON EARTH IN THE SPRING OF 2011; THE OUTER SPACE MEN NON SPORT CARDS!!!

THESE FIRST THREE PROMO CARDS WOULD NOT BE AS STUNNING AN INTRODUCTION TO THE NEW OSM NON SPORT CARDS IF IT WERE NOT DUE IN LARGE PART TO THE INVALUABLE HELP AND AMAZING TALENT OF MEL BIRNKRANT. WORKING ALONG WITH TOM LICHTMAN OF SIDEKICK LABS MEL AND TOM IN A SHORT THREE DAYS CREATED SOME OF THE BEST LOOKING CARDS IMAGINABLE. STAY TUNED FOR CONSTANT UPDATES ABOUT THE CARDS ARRIVAL DATES AND WHERE YOU WILL BE ABLE TO FIND THEM. KEEP LOOKING AS YOU WILL NOT WANT TO MISS THIS COLLECTION OF NSC'S. IT IS RUMORED THAT MEL HIMSELF WILL HAVE ARTIST SKETCH CARDS INSERTED RAMDOMLY WITHIN WAX PACKS AS WELL AS AUTOGRAPHED CARDS BY THE MAN HIMSELF.

One aspect of the entire OSM initiative is a top down "Retro Futurism" tag line which seems to fit very well. It is old yet very very new. Have a great weekend everyone. Keep those SASE coming. Also; if you have local comic or card stores where you think that the promos should be sitting on the counter please let me know. Thanks, Gary.
