Your youth action figures?

What action figure franchise was your fav when you were a kid? As much as Id like for it to be SW, I wasnt a big SW fan back then when I was in grade school. My fav was Ninja Turtles. I loved em so much. I played em all the time with my friends. I stained the carpet a few times with the mutigen that came with one of the sets. :p My mom was furious. :eek: I also watched the cartoon every Saturday and recorded many hours of it. Leonardo was my fav turtle.

its been a long time but as far as i can remember the action figures that i had during the 80's and early 90's were Voltron, He-Man, G.I. Joe, Transformers, and my favorite Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles ( i think i had every TMNT related toys). i had an interseting toy collection but i sold or gave it all way before i moved.

 

in the 90's i mostly had Spawn action figures.

G.I Joe!! Those figures r0xxored! Snake eyes (with the wolf) and the white Ninja dude who was actually eeevil...so cool!

 

I also played with Star Wars figures a lot. Still got some left who survived the times when I used to shoot 'em with my airgun. :joy:

 

And Mask! Loved the green motorcycle that turned into a chopper! How cool was that!!?

 

I hated SuperHeroNinjaTurtles as well as Masters Of The Universe. Didn't get in to the whole Transformers-thing either.

 

Nowadays action figures are, like, 2ft tall huge constructs with all sorts of dumb automatic superkicks and voices and whatever.. :confused: Do kids really like that? Doesn't it hinder their imagination? Or is "imagination" passé?

surprisingly i've never had a star wars action figure.

 

 

growing up i wasn't a big fan as i'am now. i liked the movies but didn't care less about it.

 

 

it's just been recently were i fell in love with star wars. i think it was Natalie Portman that got me hooked.

 

i think i might buy some star wars action figures for display like how i have my spawn action figures.

Don't talk about my 2nd wife like that. :p

She is all mine I tell you.

 

The action figure's that I use to play with were the TMNT and the Batman ones from the movies and not the show. It was from Batman Returns and under where I got the toys. The other ones screwed it and the toys were dumb after that. I mainly played with my Matchbox cars when I was little too. I too really never had a Star Wars action figure. All I ever got was the Action Fleet vehicles that Micro Machines made. I have quite a few of those and they are still in my room right now on top of my dexk. :D

voltron, power rangers (the first ones goddamnit), G.I. Joes, TMNT, Exo-Squad, Star Wars, Battletech, Jurassic Park, Legos

 

EDIT: how silly of me, i forgot Transformers!, Optimus was the best and i'm still looking for a toy of him when he's the red semi, that was a kick ass toy, and although you might call me a little kid or somethin like that, i have all my old toys, i never shot or blew any up, they're all in bins in my closet right now, i love toys

I'm not 100% sure whether you are trolling or not, but I do know that you are annoying the hell out of everyone.

i have all of the first variations of the 1995 SW kenner figs, luke obi and darth w/long sabers and stuff like that, they are soo cool, i'm never gonna get rid of these things, but i kinda stopped collecting when they got into all the background characters that were made just to make figures, i don't care for them as much, and i just basically gave up, now i just go for the badass characters/figures

I had a mass of He-man toys (old school), I had G.I. Joe's, Thudercats, Voltron (the metal one not the cheep plastic), Batman figures and anyother type of comic style figures I liked. Mostly X-Men I would buy and trade them with my friends the same goes for Ninja Turtles. Later I got into Spawn comics and figures with my friends. Now-a-days Im toyless...but its fun to think back and reflecked off my childhood, Toys being one of the few things that gave me this huge happyness, in a way blinding me from the realworld but damn if it wasnt bliss.
