Hi guys have started going through all my childhood toys including my brothers as well.
I will get more pictures up when I get them all together. Here is a box of weapons I have found I am so glad I stored them away :) I was convinced they were all lost over time but thankfully not.
I think what the weapons I have here is Turtles, Rambo, A-Team, Batman, Terminator, Transformers(prowl) Bravestar, Thundercats,
Can't remember the names of the other figures if anyone can recognise these weapons.

So I've started a little budget Starcom run as this is the stuff I bought the most of as a child with my own money, all from a market stall in Leicester that had the stuff piled high in the late 80's early 90's

So I'm not sure what's worse, me taking a day to realise I've been sent the wrong MOC or the seller for sending it. Still at least I've got an instant character focus now my second one turned up lol

Thanks Steve, the whole set of the American cards seems to be done like that with pictures of the character whereas the European ones (on the left) are all illustrated action shots of the vehicles done in the same style as the vehicle boxes.
A nice little bonus is they fit quite well in the GW cases as well.

Loved your Hordak by the way 8)

Was it a reasonable price? Hordak is awesome. I gather this is an 80s release and not the reissue series?

I would love some motu or tranformers boxed but prices tend to be out of my league.

Cheers Barry, I do love it, nice to have something different on a card/boxed.
Date wise.. 1984 I think (sorry at work right now).
Certainly vintage rather than a re-issue and I think I did very well at £25!
It was weird, a lot of other MOTU with very yellow bubbles and more tattered card-backs were £60/£80... the guy said he knew nothing and had just priced what he had picked up on last sale price on eBay, I don't think for a moment he had factored in condition, just character name.
Felt like a win to me!
 
Love the MOTU range, they look good as loose figures, but Mocs are ace, and pricey.


That Hordak was a steal for £25 mate, well done it looks superb condition as well


Series 1 1982 original 8 backs ( the 9th figure release was He Man Faker)
Series 2 1983
Series 3 1984
Series 4 figures released in 1985 included Hordak s appearance
 
So after last week getting sent the wrong MOC this week the seller sent on the correct one and said keep both ‪#‎winning:D
