Back in the late 90's, Bandai released this line called Dinozaurs that in my opinion was their response to Beast Wars. So this kinda of makes the the GoBots of the 90's. FYI Bandai actually produced the GoBots, Tonka marketed and released over here in the US. Anyway, what you get is are prehistoric creatures that transform in robots and at very least, a fairly decent toy line.
So, initially I had thought that this was from Kabaya, who is famous for making candy toys, but after looking around the 'net I figured out that it's from Bandai. Though it would have been easier to check the sticker sheet that it came with.:P It's pretty cool for a toy that's about 2" high.
Also since I missed posting on Monday and Tuesday, I'll be posting this weekend, which I normally don't do.
Yet another toy from childhood that survived into my adulthood.
He's a bendy which pretty cool when you want him to wrap those tentacles around other figures
So I just got this in the mail yesterday off of eBay for $1 + shipping. Which was more that the item but still reasonable. $4 all together. And just in time for a COPS marathon!
Unfortunately he didn't come with any accessories but it's pretty cool on it's own. He also has what seems to be stains from a black marker. His hair should be brighter too. I tried to clean it up as best as I could without having to resort to cleaning agent that would strip the paint off. Either way, not bad for $4 and I'm sure I'll find the rest of his parts and maybe a replacement head at a toy show I'll be working in July.
When NECA announced that they were doing Gears of Wars in 3.75", I could not believe it. After all NECA is known for doing 6" figures and up. Aside from missing a few key articulation issues (no arm swivel and not much bending at the knee), the whole line is pretty good.
