A rememberence to your childhood toys...

[Valfar]

I had this, the wings could detach and it ad a nandle on the bottom with a trigger to use the scissor things at the front to grab figures.

I think i had the first movie version then, with the scissors mentioned and enabling the trigger to fire two yellow or orange foam darts with suction cups.

I had the Tyrant Hawkwind from the Air Raiders line. XD

Pretty sure i posted this already in the Vintage Collectibles Thread..

I still have my Returns figure by Applause as well...

Inspector Gadget

Pretty sure i had him before owning anything He-Man..

Really loved this Applause Neil Adams vinyl Batman figure as a child..pretty sure they made Joker,Catwoman,Penguin, Robin etc..

Had a bunch of these too...

And lastly, those toy bb pistols you could get at pretty much any corner store back in the 80's, the bb was silver and they came in small clear blue bags.

 

[Batty]

Wow, the case as well?!?!
Do you still fire the projector up every so often?

I found both of these at the p's house over the weekend and can't wait to see if it still works.
I may try to do a side-by-side with my panny pj.

It's been years since I've turned it on, but I'm pretty sure the bulb still works. And the case is actually in great condition. I also have a bunch of the reels too. Off the top of my head, I know I have The Banana Splits, Lancelot Link and some 3D Donald Duck/Chip n' Dale story.

 

[Uncanny Web-Slinger]

I freaking loved this figure

Probably the strangest alien design ever!!! But i loved it.

I had a ton of these as well as a volcano shaped black plastic display thing that went up on my wall and had spaces for tons of monsters.

I had enzo and megabyte.

Simply awesome micro machines.

I had the astronaut & the skater ones of johnny as well as a virtual hajii figure. Johnny quest ruled.

 

[Deckard]

Oh yeaa I remember Reboot, was on saturday mornings before Futurama.

 

[Darth Madden]

There not really toys but I remember pumping a LOT of quarters into the machines for these as a kid. Too me forever to get Dallas.

 

[Grosby]

Grosby, I remembered them too and did some searching which lead me right back to this forum for the answer, check it out.

Trash Bag Bunch

This were sooooooo cool!

Ha, yes, those are it. Thanks for solving the mystery for me. The toys aren't quite as I remember but I don't really recall having any interest in the toys afterward so that likely explains that.

I looked them up on YouTube, here's an ad for them:

That sounds familiar but I can't think of it. It did make me remember Super Naturals though. These guys had the holographic bodies and faces.

I had one of those ghost-like things at the front there, just one. I never knew what it was. I remember you could easily remove the hologram from the figure, it was just a flat plate.

It's very odd reading this thread, I tell you. You think you can remember everything, or that what you don't remember you've forgotten forever, but then I see these pictures and it brings back clear and certain memories of events/toys that I'm positive I haven't thought about in at least fifteen years, that I feel I had absolutely no memory of until seeing them again here.

[Deak Starkiller]

You guys know about the Vintage Collectibles thread, right? Pfft.

 

[barryo]

did anyone have these as a kid????

i had like 10,000 of these over the years but sadly none survived...
either they got thrown away, lit on fire for crash scenario, or my damn dog ate them....................

 

[The Entity]

I was a huge TMNT fan when I was a kid. This must have been my favourite toy of that license:

TMNT Partywagon!

Besides this I also had:

- The Technodrome
- Turtle Blimp
- Turtle Helicopter
- Sewer Playset
- Bubble Bomber
- Drill (which the bad guys used as transport from and to technodrome)
- Flying Car (black with purple)
- Pizza Thrower
- Grappler machine
- Sewer Skateboards

Plus around 100-150 different figures, I think...

I still have all this stuff actually, somewhere in the attic

Well, at least they are not very difficult to replace, as they don't usually go up in value too much

Before Star Wars was released in 77 I had two heroes as a little kid - Superman and The Six Million Dollar Man.

I had almost all of the Mego DC Superheros. (Wish I still had them)

I also had most of the Six Million Dollar Man stuff
* Steve Austin with Version 1 of the right hand (non-closing)
* Bionic Transport/Operating Table

* Bionic Mission Vehicle

* Outfits (but the astronaut suit ruled and I mostly kept him in it)

*Critical Assignment Limbs

* Maskatron

* Oscar Goldman (or more accurately - the awesome briefcase that came with a useless doll)

* Mission Control Center - For some reason mine didn't include the dome. I was so f---ing mad about that. When you're 10 it's hard to get parents to care about a missing inflatable dome, so I never got that part. Also I remember my cat liked to pee on the vinyl floor.

All these years later I wish I still had them. I also find myself asking what knucklehead put a boy's line of action toys in pink packaging?
