    I keep wondering why they are re-releasing this line is every format (even 12" now) and not the original.
    I feel their small scale is just...too small, and the 12" are quite expensive.
    Yeah, same here- I wish they would do actual repro bendies.

        It’s a cool line. However, I admit that I never knew Colorforms made more than, well, Colorforms.

        Did Colorforms branch out more than with this action figure line?

          They produced a series 2 of these, but they weren't produced.

          Colorforms had a lot more going on than I realized as well. Here's a great place to learn about that company and the guy that invented the Outer Space Men among a ton of other stuff.

            Very light paint wear on this one, and good wires!

              Thanks for the link, Danny. Looks like Colorforms also acquired some fun properties as the years went into the late 70s and 1980s. I was surprised that the company survives to this day and is still producing products.
