I never forget these because i have to see them all ever day since i own a vintage toy store and they have never sold in over 25 years and still all here covered in dust and wasting space.
-
The face you made when you said "William Baldwin" was priceless. I died. Had to call EMS.
-
Cowboys of moo mesa theme song ! Billy Dean!

I did have a childhood friend who's father worked for Kenner in the 80s and the only thing he ever got for free and in advance (two weeks before stores got it) was the Jabba the Hutt playset.
-
Virus was an odd movie but was ok. It was an alien transmission that took over a boat and turned all the people into cyborg type creatures.
-
Greek gods? I'd buy those. Then again, I'd likely buy figures of Norse gods, Shinto gods, and Egyptian gods. They're cool
-
We had a family friend who was a garbage man. He was always bringing GI Joes home for his kids which he found with the trash on the curb. He didn't work for Hasbro or Kenner as far as I can remember.
-
The only ones I might have collected had I known about them wouldβve been the Olympians because Iβm into mythology and depended upon the scale, the may have fit in with Clash of the Titans figures.

In 1978 to 1979, we lived in Florida (St Petersburg, near Tampa) and my dad worked at Pet Dairy, making all things from udder secretions. He brought home all kinds of yogurt and a shot ton of cottage cheese with pineapple in it. Donβt know how all those old retirees got their pineapple cottage cheese, cause I am pretty sure all of it that the plant made was sitting in my fridge!
-
I loved Virus and drooled over those figures, but never got them.
-
I remember none of these. They all look like toys you'd find in the dollar store. And, I do remember the movie 'Virus', I guess not enough people caught it to spread word about it.
-
I have to disagree with Monster Force they actually look quite cool π
-
Lol π I thought about a local antique store that sells old action figures. They have MOTU figures in zip lock bags
-
I used to live near the old Gibson guitar factory, and everyone and their brother, would try to amaze me by telling me that their uncle, worked there and made "this" one off custom guitar in the 60s.....in reality they were 2nd runs out of the part bins taken by the employees, cool, but not the holy grail they thought.
-
My Uncle designed most of these. I have the prototypes to this day. Including the Left Handed Gold Extreme Dinosaur Variant.
-
remember those awful generic pirates that KD Toys sold? god... those were terrible. And food fighters... who the hell wants to play with militant pancakes and chicken legs?
-
"Ten minutes after you get it home, you have a mess all over your carpet." Oh, Junkman, never change! ππ ππ ππ
-
I totally didn't know anyone that worked for a toy company and I never got any prototypes. It was so cool getting nothing when I was a kid!
-
I actually saw Virus in the theater back then. In fact, I was the only one in the theater. What a waste of time! I had no idea there were toys for the movie.
-
I had never heard of those Twelve Olympians figures before but they grabbed my attention. Being heavily into Greek mythology I want them. So I have just looked on Ebay for them and the couple of figures that are listed are wanting crazy high money (There's a Poseidon for Β£65!) so unfortunately these figures are well beyond my finances to collect.
