First one is an X-Changer. (That's why the arms and legs come off) I had one as a child bought from ASDA - I've picked up a couple since.
Sergeant Skarr below. (That photo is prototypes so they don't exactly match. My Childhood Daark Lord never had blue on his helmet)

Perfect, cheers UKS!
Makes sense as I found these & thought it was MOTU but didn't match up with any of them.

Looking at X-Changers & found that the other 2 are "Cosmic Cowboys".
Chief Alpha Lance & Sgt Alpha Cody.
Thanks for the help

 

[colin310]

Just to update after matching these up with accessories….
Sgt Skarr; missing an additional claw hand
Chief Iron Lance; missing a gun
Sgt Alpha Cody; missing gun & rifle


Also have John Blackstar's "Star Sword" that still glows in the dark!

 

[colin310]

Had some time to go through more boxes & take pictures…..
MOTU



Tub is full of weapons/staffs/chest pieces etc…think most figures are 100% complete with only a couple bits missing. Bag in tub also has Modulok.
8 original comics aswell.

Some TMNT & just a couple of (I think) rarer Thundercats

There's doubles of the turtles (bro had them aswell) & probably about another 20 Thundercat figures aswell as the thunder tank, sky cutter & mutant fist pounder.

I think I was just at the right age for all of these coming out.
Prob be a bit of dubiety with my bro abt the TC but I'm claiming them all!!

That's some great childhood figures you have there. Always nice when they are the ones you used to play with

Bengali is a good rarer figure to own.

nice I have Willma, Buck and Twiki mocs and have always liked this line of figures......I think I have Tiger man as well lol! It's a fairly short run of figures to get and shouldn't break the bank, which is always a bonus.

Santa was good enough to bring me a couple of great toys that I loved back in the day.
Zoids Spider and Secret Agent kit.
Remember sending away crisp packets to get the Zoid and our old local paper shop sold the gun set

Those are two great items from Santa this year and I think I had both growing up. The Zoids spider I still have loose and complete and I know I had various Secret Agent sets growing up but this one looks so familiar to me that I'm pretty sure I had it (or something very similar).

One thing I always remember having is a bullet firing secret agent book that I think was blue in colour with orange bullets. I've never found a picture of it and know it was probably some cheap china thing but I had it from around August 16th 1977 when I was holiday with my parents. The reason that I know that date so well is I can always remember playing with it and then the news came on the radio that Elvis had died. It's so funny how things like this stick with you but if anyone has any leads on this item then please let me know ( I know that;s a very long shot but you never know).

Mate as soon as I read your description of the bullet firing book it triggered some lovely memories of playing with one.
OK let's track one down for you - that's going to be a fun hunt

 

[Cazza]

Love the Spider Zoid, Colin. Sold mine a few years ago- wish I'd kept them

 

[Michael Sith]

was it like this one?

[db94]

That is a cool piece, cheers for posting up that link.
The one I remember having was more a cheap generic small plastic toy with small red bullets

 

[db94]

Santa also brought me this and I absolutely love it. Loved the show back in the day and having a Liberator bracelet to play with (and I really am playing with it ) is just brilliant

Just noticed your reply Mike but the one you've pictured is way more advanced than what I had. The one I had was very cheap and made of plastic (light wish blue I think). It had small orange/red bullets and was probably only around 3-4" tall, so not very big at all. The firing mechanism was built into the book so there was no hidden gun inside.

Thanks for looking though and hopefully one day it will turn up.

That's the same for me and it does sound like you had the same one as me so maybe something that was a little more available than I thought. There's definitely some hope so keeps those eyes open for it

Nice one, I'm considering a probe droid, it displays lovely I did treat myself to this beauty for my recent birthday

 

[colin310]

Anyone have any knowledge of bootleg figures like Galaxy/Muscle Warriors??
I've got a couple that I'm trying to get a realistic value for & having bother on FB groups as most now seem to not allow valuation posts.
Believe the names are Triton & Baltard
As always folks, any help is much appreciated

I don't really remember these from back in the day (probably due to their release date, although I do know there's a lot of love for them), but they do look so good on their cards. They look to be in amazing condition and will look great on display

Nice pick up. I never owned any of these, but I do remember them. They look in great condition.

Here's my He-man and Skelotor focus. Pretty happy with this collection at the moment, would like a MISB Battle Cat, Peached Cheek Skeletor and a U.S.A/Mexico He-Man.
