Manglors - Press Release



For decades, the legends of their horrors have persisted.

The eggs, hidden in the depths of FOSSIL POINT, have existed in a state of hibernation.

Now, after forty years of silence, the volcano of MANGLOR MOUNTAIN has erupted again - and the MANGLORS - are back!


In 1983, the Ideal Toy Company introduced the "stick-icky creatures from another dimension", the Action Aliens known as the Manglors.

Comprised of both ferocious warriors and incredible creatures, these beings "made of the strangest stuff on earth" - sorbothane - were stretchy, sticky clay-like monstrosities.

The incredible box art by the late, great Ken Kelly promised the ultimate warriors of terror, but a perplexing marketing decision prompting kids to tear them apart doomed the line. Not even the addition of the amazing Prehi-Storage Eggs in 1984 could save the Manglors from tumbling into the toyboxes of obscurity. 


In 2013, Toyfinity officially acquired the rights to the Manglors. 

Developed for ten years, redesigned from the combined minds of Matt Doughty and Erwin Papa, the new Manglord stands tall at 4.25 inches of power!

The reimagined Manglors utilize the GLYOS SYSTEM of joint technology, allowing them to finally fulfill their original promise of "tear em apart / stick em back together again!"

Additionally, you can mix Manglors parts with any other Glyos compatible toyline to create your own custom monstrosities. 


The initial release of the new Manglors was on 1/29/2023 - with the standard classic colors Manglord selling out in less than two hours.

Now, due to popular demand, the standard Manglord is back! 

We are offering a special five day reorder - from today, 2/6/2023 through 11:59 pm on 2/10/2023 - allowing you to add this supreme warrior chieftain of the Manglor tribes to your collections!

This pre-order is expected to ship May 2023.


But he is not alone...

As a special bonus, you will also have the chance to add a returning threat from the primordial times of planet Uzalek to your collection - the PROTOLORD. Risen again from the depths of Manglor Mountain to challenge the Manglord, this malleable menace has never known defeat!

His two-tone green look is inspired by the vintage unpainted Manglord who was released with Manglor Mountain. Joining him are his demonic followers, the PROTOMORDLES, plus you will have the opportunity to purchase Prehi-storage Eggs in two varieties, created from the vintage Manglors tooling!

Any order placed during this special pre-order period will also come with a special art card by Erwin Papa depicting the battle of these two warriors for the title of Manglord! This art card will only be available during this pre-order.


Looking into the future, the terrifying vision of artist Nate Baertsch provides a preview of the breadth of Manglors to come.

Don't miss out on your chance to start a Manglors collection with the keystone figure in the collection, the Manglord!

Only from Toyfinity!
