Hi Stefano, I'm not sure what happened to that brand. Their products arrived in Australian shops a few years ago at rather high prices. They didn't sell well here, partly due to competition with 1/35 scale plastic products, and ended up being heavily discounted before disappearing from the shelves.

Hi, Stefano, and welcome to the forum!

The topic of Oryon, and whether the figures are still in production, has come up from time to time in the past few months. Here is a link to another thread in the forum that has a little more info, plus some pictures of some of the members' Oryon figures:

You might want to try a search, too, and then you can browse through the threads that are returned. Up towards the top of the page, you'll see a menu item called Search, with a down arrow next to it. Just click the word "Search" or click the down arrow, and you'll get a text box, in which you can enter "Oryon", and then click Go. I don't think we have one single thread, that covers everything about Oryon, but you should find what you're looking for in the several threads that the search brings back.

Now, do you have some pictures of your own collection? We'd love to see what you collect and how you display them.

Again, welcome, prosit!
Brad

Welcome to the Forum.

Bad news about Oryon. Andy of K&C says they have gone out of business.
