>>9403492Phanost comes built diffrently than the picture and I wanted to change him to the pictured version.
I'm aware that glyos can sometimes be a wonky or difficult fit but it took me hours trying to get the delphi pieces and switch pins apart and together.
I can feel callouses coming in and I was giving myself some carpal tunnel moments from trying to push and pull these things
A lot of glyos parts can be put together/apart because they're big enough or shaped right where you can hold them for leverage. For example the two torso pieces go together and apart well because of the flush surface under the peg that can be used to push the pieces together.
These delphi things on the other hand are tiny and round and slip out of your hands and you have nothing to push with or hold onto.
The switch pins were necessary for the connection from shoulder to the next piece and that tiny thing would not budge, I had to use other objects around and create a contraption to push them in.
Worst of all were the black calf pieces. No peg fit into them. The holes were far too tiny. I had to carve them out bigger with a hand drill and a nail and probably gave myself pvc poisoning.
Finally finished and it looks cool af now - never taking this thing apart again. I love customizing limbs ,colors, heads but maybe Glyos custom builds aren't for me? I don't think toys should be painful like this.
As I was trying to get my Phanost built right I kept wondering how this disaster of a toy could have been made and I feel like it's because the idea of it being a building toy went too extreme where they don't want pieces to look like character arms or legs
Glyos are basically tiny action figures that can be customized, not a building toy like lego where any type of piece will fit together fine. You have to force pieces into each other, and it works if the parts aren't crap and impossible for human hands like these delphi limbs.
Sincroborg built p much no problems and is totally epic
