SPACE WARRIORS ADVENTURE SET -
OUTER SPACE MEN ALIENS




Back in 1968, the Colorforms Company launched their "Outer Space Men," a dazzling line of "bendy" action figures that have become kid classics for their imaginative designs and play value.



A decade later, the Outer Space Men returned to Earth in this colorful playset...



This is the Colorforms "Space Warriors Adventure Set" from 1977, nearly complete, and in very good shape.



"Series One" of the original OSM included seven various extraterrestrials from around the galaxy, each boasting colorful alien designs, removable bubble helmets, and wild weaponry.



"Series Two" of Colorforms' OSM featured six new alien designs, yet sadly, these figures were never released, with only prototypes created for the new crew.  But all six characters are vividly featured in this set (along with three aliens from Series One), both on the beautiful box cover, and plastic pieces within.



Open the lid and there's a 17" wide x 12 1/2" tall play environment: a colorful planetary landscape for arranging imaginative Outer Space scenes.  Plastic playset pieces include all nine aliens, rockets, weapons, ray guns, costumes, comets, and shooting stars.  Only two small pieces are absent: a rocket-dart and a shooting star.



The box cover is clean and brightly colorful, with one split corner (lower right), minor bowing, and light edge wear.  The box bottom is quite clean, with square corners and no splits.  The play environment is shiny, vividly colorful, and like new.  Both waxy black boards (for the plastic play pieces) are present, as is the Playset's full-color foldout instruction sheet.  Overall, an excellent example of this classic Space collectible.  Are you up for a visit from the Outer Space Men?
