JULY PILE FINALE: Cosmic Legions Spyro Gyra


That’s her name now.I don’t love shitting on Four Horsemen nomenclature and lore, even in good joshing fun, but lordy they make it easy sometimes. I’m going to cut and paste this once and then never think about it again::

MBYRA JMGYRA.

AKA “Vaguely Feral Translucent Alien Lady.

I got her as part of the In Stock sale because she’s been on the Cool Figures list for a while, and, much like OK Lotsa Arms, she got porch pirated and I had to buy her again. Well, “had to” is too strong a term but I was still in the throes of vacation-induced “what even is money anyway” compulsion.

And she is very cool and also fussy, but not in the areas I expected. The big fussy is the pauldros. Find someone who love s you the way Four Horsemen loves pauldrons. But her pauldron-holes are off. They’re both too big but Rightie is WAY too big so I had to poster-tac both of them to get them to stay for even a second. 

Where she’s surprisingly not fussy is in the Small Hnads Big Gun department. I was expecting this pose to be impossible because that is a VERY big gun and traditionally, any hand soft enough to get the grip into it is too soft to hold the weight one-handed, even vertically. But it holds just fine!

I don’t know why she’s translucent even after reading her backstory, which told me her head-tail-thingy has a poisonous stinger so I don’t regret the effort ENTIRELY. She comes with two heads can have or not have the tail thing, a big rifle, extra hands, the forearm blade, the pauldrons, and a big staff.

For the pic, I -really- wanted to highlight the translucency, and I did, kind of at the expense of everything else. Each individual technique I applied worked the way I intended it to and yet somehow I think it still looks more like ass than I planned.
