The Four Horsemen recently updated their site with the announcement of <em>three<\/em> new Outer Space Men waves (and a Gothitropolis tidbit to boot). <!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s the official 4H press release: <\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>We just wanted to give you all a quick update of things going on now at <strong>Four Horsemen Studios<\/strong>&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; <strong>Infinity Edition Outer Space Men waves 1&amp;2 2.0<\/strong>: &nbsp;In production now &#8211; these are not exactly the same as the first release of the <strong>Infinity Edition OSM waves 1&amp;2<\/strong>. We&#8217;ve gone back in and made some minor tweaks and alterations to the paints that will bring these guys closer to <strong>Mel Birnkrant&#8217;s<\/strong> original vision of the <strong>Outer Space Men<\/strong>. The changes will be minor, but sure to be appreciated by true OSM fans. We&#8217;d hoped to have them in stock by mid-Spring, but we decided that a little delay would be okay in order to make sure that the next two items listed below would be ready in time for the <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.comic-con.org\/cci\/\">2012 San Diego Comic Con<\/a><\/strong>. <strong>The Infinity Edition Outer Space Men wavs 1&amp;2 2.0<\/strong> will be available for sale at <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.comic-con.org\/cci\/\">SDCC 2012<\/a><\/strong> and online at <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shopfourhorsemen.com\/\">Store Horsemen<\/a><\/strong> at the same time. Photos and pre-orders coming soon.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; <strong>Outer Space Men Alpha Phase wave 5 and our first Deluxe Outer Space Man<\/strong>: &nbsp;In production now &#8211; the <strong>Alpha Phase<\/strong> versions of <strong>Outer Space Men wave 5<\/strong> (including <strong>Orbitron<\/strong> and <strong>Gemini<\/strong>) and our very first <strong>Deluxe Outer Space Man<\/strong> (<strong>Cyclops<\/strong>) will be available at <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.comic-con.org\/cci\/\">SDCC 2012<\/a><\/strong> and online at <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shopfourhorsemen.com\/\">Store Horsemen<\/a><\/strong> at the same time. Even though <strong>Orbitron<\/strong> was released way back in the original <strong>Outer Space Men<\/strong> line, this will be the first time that <strong>Gemini<\/strong> and <strong>Cyclops<\/strong> have ever been seen outside of prototype form. We can&#8217;t wait to have these three in our hands to play with them! Photos and pre-orders coming soon.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; <strong>Cosmic Creators Series, Four Horsemen Edition Outer Space Men<\/strong>: &nbsp;In production now &#8211; Following the successful release of the amazing <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shopfourhorsemen.com\/cocrsebiedou.html\">Cosmic Creators Series, Mel Birnkrant Edition OSM<\/a><\/strong> figures, the <strong>Four Horsemen<\/strong> have come up with their own crazy color combos for waves 1&amp;2 of the OSM. These will be extremely limited and signed and once they&#8217;re sold out, they&#8217;re sold out forever.&nbsp;The <strong>Cosmic Creators Series, Four Horsemen Edition Outer Space Men<\/strong>&nbsp;will be available for sale at <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.comic-con.org\/cci\/\">SDCC 2012<\/a><\/strong> and online at <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shopfourhorsemen.com\/\">Store Horsemen<\/a><\/strong> at the same time. Photos and pre-orders coming soon.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; <strong>Vampire Girls (Gothitropolis) production<\/strong>: &nbsp;Although these aren&#8217;t going into production as soon as we&#8217;d like, after getting some extremely high pricing for tooling from one factory, we&#8217;ve finally gotten pricing from another factory that we think we can live with. The figures are going to be more expensive than we&#8217;d hoped, but production costs continue to rise every day and there&#8217;s not much we can do to stop that. Hopefully we&#8217;ll have more news about her very soon.<\/p>\n<p><strong>-FH-<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>So, Outer Space Men fans, get your checkbooks ready! <\/p>\n<p>If you peruse the <A href=\"http:\/\/www.fantasticexclusive.com\/fforum\/forum.asp?FORUM_ID=12\" target=\"_blank\">Fantastic Exclusive Forums<\/a> as I do, you might have an idea or two of what to expect for these upcoming tweaked versions of the Outer Space Men. This is just speculation on  my part, but I imagine we might seem some changes that will let a little more light in the helmets among other things. <\/p>\n<p>Some keen eyes spotted prototypes of the <strong>Cosmic Creators Series, Four Horsemen Edition<\/strong> at Toypocalypse. You can see pics in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fantasticexclusive.com\/fforum\/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=6127\" target=\"_blank\">this thread<\/A> at FanEx. <\/p>\n<p>And some news on the regular line marching on! With the release of Gemini, Orbitron, &#038; Cyclops. Colossus Rex (who debuted with Orbitron, if I recall) is strangely absent from this release, but the precedent for the next really is possibly being established here: a wave consisting of Gamma-X and Terra Firma alongside a deluxe Rex. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I lost track of time while working on the site redesign, so there\u2019s no 7th Market review this week, but I do have some exciting news to share.
