Thank you all so much for all of your comments. I too would love one day to see the originals come back exactly as they once were however the possibility of conflicts with the originals would be too great unless there were some differentiating features. Then however they would not be exact. Changing colors, design or materials may really change the figure too greatly. Lets see how these go; there is plenty more OSM to come down the line. Best, Gary.

This is fantastic news!
To be honest, I really feel these need to be action figures like this to sell in todays market. repro bendies would be cool, but they would only sell to us old geezers. The 4horsemen figures will have a much greater appeal to kids and younger collectors.
I hope the 4H guys are able to get decent retailer interest in these....Would love to see them at TRU and the bog box retailers!!
Congratulations to Gary and Mel!!!"Crayons taste like purple!"Comment

For those of you who may have missed what went on today. The OSM SDCC exclusive limited edition figures went on sale at the StoreHorsemen web store and was sold out in minutes. If any of you missed the event do not worry there will be a huge compliment of OSM LE SDCC sets as well as the real sets on the official OSM site; Outer - Home shortly after Comic Con next week. I hope to see fans of the OSM there. I will be in booth 4045 welcoming all. Thanks so much as always, Gary.

Hi everyone. I hope that you made it to the NYCC and you all enjoyed yourself. I just got in a bunch of Tako Tanks from a friend in Japan. I have paired them with Astro Nautilus for what I think is a totally cool future vehicle. Go over to the site to see the new front page; Outer - Home Please let me know what you think. Thanks so much, Gary.Comment
