Never had him but I did have the first laser guy, Flash? I am not great with all the names but I do like the world of GI Joe.

I wish I had done that but I think I didn't have the patience or the ability to get a check or money order for mail away stuff.

I salute your sacrifice. I heard that Joe cereal was terrible but never had it.

never heard of them. They look good. Mego should have grabbed the US rights for Dr. Who. They could have banged out some fun ones.

Sounds like an awesome show. Wish I could just teleport over there. It is 2026 and still no teleportation? All that old sci-fi I read really let me down.

Are these Deny Fisher toys? I never knew about them as a kid (USA based) but would have loved Dr. Who toys. Especially a K-9

Putting it out on front street. Maybe he should label it "harmless sludge" or something.

The detail on those vehicles was really nice considering the small scale.

I can hear there little refrain "the go-bots, the go-bots" whenever I see them.

I was going to call it another silent cash grab until I saw the line-up. Those creators get my attention and my dollars. Looks like I am all in again.

Rolling Thunder is a great name. It was just nice to be able to get a vehicle on the cheap. They looked crazy and were good fun, even if I did usually lose most of the little bits very quickly.

Space is such a killer. I mostly focus on comics as they take up less room but I am always having to get rid of stuff. I think I am mostly off the new 6 inch stuff (except for Marvel Mego re-issues) as no room, no room.

The big boots make him easy to stand which I like. Too many of these guys you have to delicately balance to get to stay upright. I sometimes still swing by a McD to get the happy meal if the toys are interesting.

I quit on the transformer toys after G1 as they were too fragile. Saved me money and space. I have thought about re-buying that submarine one again. The Go-bots cartoon seems like it was for real little kids.

The ones I have opened are in good shape. I also like to see what is going on with the comic. Usually a reprint but sometimes a new story.

I have a vague recollection of the phaser and communicator from the 70s. We also had the guns that fired the plastic bits. Didn't seem very star trek but we enjoyed them anyways.
