Welcome to the board btw. -M Thanks! After a few months of lurking, I've finally managed to register my account. I discovered this site through Shaxper's Byrne Superman review thread, and found I liked the vibe and level of discourse around here. Hopefully I can add my two cents every now and then! |

I only knew the three on the left and had Raydeen.
They were 1 foot tall, and the comics came after the yots IIRC. My dad got it for me for Christmas cause it was big sci-fi and funky looking.
He, or she, integrated well into our toy universe of 1978.

Yeah the Shogun Godzilla is a pretty high demand vintage toy and can be pricey complete (it often is missing one or more fists and the tail frequently broke). I saw a couple when I binge watched Toy Hunter from the Travel Channel.

If my new avatar is any indication, Chuckles, the Fisher Price Little People Circus Clown  Really like the look of older representations of clowns as well as pastels. Just kind of find them charming, cute, an completely inoffensive (not to boast, but a little bit like myself personality wise) |

Sorry, always found clowns to be creepy in any iteration. But I used to have a lot of the Fisher Price people (though I am old enough the bodies were still made of wood not plastic).

King Hiss was a favorite MOTU figure mostly due to shock value. From the outside he looks like a standard He-Man figure, but underneath is something hideous. Not one, but six snake heads! It was a bit disturbing as a kid, and I'll never forget the look on my sister's face when she saw it. Pure nightmare fuel.  |

Yeah, I like the look of a lot of the older Fisher Price toys, Adventure People especially. The Space itteration of the line is just ripe for a comeback by the Four Horsemen  |

The Space itteration of the line is just ripe for a comeback by the Four Horsemen I reacquired the Fisher Price Alpha Probe last year, after being away from it for three decades:  I wouldn't say I collect Adventure People, but their space series was a must-have from my childhood. |

My favorite toy was the Mego Spider-man. I went through a few of those.
Also the Aurora King Kong.
I wasn't a fan of the Shogun Warrior Godzilla because my brother had it and he liked to fire the fist and let me tell you it hurt being on the receiving end of that.
I did feel bad when I cut it up into pieces to use the body for a big claymation figure. The head and fists are in a box somewhere.
