Thanks SpyMagician. I won't be getting any of these and if Mattel does Major Matt Mason in 3 3/4" scale I won't be getting any of them either. Anything other than the vintage style MMM figures and I would pass.

I had a lot of questions about the old Outer Space Men line (I'd never heard of it before) and after spending way too much time reading up on it and talking to a few fans, I figured I'd turn what I learned into an article. You can check it out here: http://www.itsalltrue.net/?p=5217

He was asking about Major Matt Mason @ Matty. MMM was a Mattel line.

Oh man, if Mattel were to do a new Major Matt Mason line in 3 3/4" as well... That would just be freakin' awesome! I've wanted those darn Colorforms Aliens for years but they were always sooo pricey! YAY! Spy Holy Cannoli! That is awesome!

I've loved these guys since I had the Colorform when I was little. Anyone remember that gem?

God, I remember these from when I was much, much younger! I have always loved space toys, and the ColorForms guys were GREAT. I played with these for hours. (We had a gravel driveway. It conveniently doubled as an asteroid belt. Enough said.) You bet I will be looking for these!
I wonder how DC let the name "Metamorpho" get away from them. Did they lose it somehow? I always thought that it was odd that the BAF from DCUC wave 1 was billed as "Rex Mason, the Element Man" instead of Metamorpho....

These guys are from before my time, but I remember reading an article years ago about how popular they were with kids of the 60's. Anything that involves the 4H is bound to be great and the pictures I've seen so far look very promising.
