Xevoz - FireDrake - Where's the fire?


Brave Knight: "Slay that dragon you say? The one with the armor that is larger than mine?!!"

I'm a little disappointed with the Xevoz Reptosaur FireDrake. If a dragon is what they were going for, I think it could have been way cooler compared to how they hit the nail with all the other kinds of forms. Its head and neck being a little awkward to work with is its first flaw. The second are its wittle wings. They are not impressive for a dragon's usual main feature. The armor is cool though, and that anvil begs to drop on many a Xevoz head. I would still skip it, for some of the others still. Unless I was collecting all the Xevoz, then I would want it in the collection. Not that I'm trying to collect them all. Who does that anyways?

Xevoz - Crypt Curse - Toilet paper?


The Mummy Xevoz has to be in the top five of figures. It is almost two for one value, with a great Anubis dog warrior look or standard mummy look. It also has an action feature; torso spinning which mummies often do in the real world. I was lucky to find him in a giant lot of Xevoz I recently acquired on Ebay. Two large shoe boxes full of parts arrived at my door. It took about three hours sorting the pieces out, and rebuilding the toys. It was like uncovering a real mummy.

I like making the Anubis head beg for the chicken leg piece from the mummy.

Xevoz - Skull Jack - My first Xevoz


Skull Jack made the cut for my first Xevoz figure to buy, way back in the day. I figured if I didn't want to continue to collect, at least I would have a neat core skeleton to use as a boiled GI Joe or something.

Hey remember this flash back post Skeleton Run? Those were the days. Say, isn't the Summer Toy Olympics coming up?

Xevoz - Cryo Katan - and Mount Hood


Went to Portland this past weekend. Lots of family visits, expensive refueling, and driving. Did get some neat pictures of Mount Hood at a Country Club for a wedding reception.

More Unbelievable was when I zoomed close to the peak and found Xevoz Cryo Katan climbing the mountain! He must use some sort of pixelazation dampner because he looks pretty clean, and the mountain fuzzy.

Xevoz - Rune Slayer - Nice Shoes?


All my life I wanted to be an Arcaster; a powerful order of magic wielding warriors! I practiced hard, allied myself with a Hyperfury, and eventually graduated top of my class. I became a Rune Slayer; master of runes, lore and incantations! Few of anything can match me in battle. I travel far in quest of ancient texts, tomes, and artifacts. Also pretty good at casting powerful spells and conjuring weapons of magical might!

Then I saw the shoes I was required to wear. So I retired.

Xevoz - Dune Stinger - Nice Hat!


The Xevoz Sectoid figures are simply the best insect toys ever made (sorry Insecticon). With plentiful joints and pieces, these things look pretty scary! They seem to carry extra parts and pieces on them as well! Its nice to have that kind of variety in a toy line. Some Xevoz will stand a few inches taller than others, some will be more massive than others, some will come with a sombrero. That makes another genius factor for Xevoz; most figures come with a humorific piece.

Xevoz - Razorclaw - how cute!


At the core of every Xevoz figure is a cute and cuddly kitten, puppy, human, element and or skeleton. Take for instance soft little Razorclaw here. Actually, he prefers the name Softy Paws.

Lukily with the assortment of Xevoz armor and weapons, we can outfit little Softy Paws into a mighty warrior!
