in this episode i'' m going to. be blending up a mixed drink of two extremely dorky points and serving to you a.
glass of forgotten 80s playthings so remain hello there fellow dorks and torquettes and welcome to.
plastic ghosts my name is rob and in this episode we will be speaking about failed to remember 80s comic publication.
toys a few of the playthings on this list i can clearly keep in mind having fun with and caring at the time i.
had no concept that they were spawned from comic books a few years later i was a little bit more.
spruced up and yeah already these playthings were long gone from my collection and from an early age.
i had remorses of allowing playthings unclothe my understanding one inquiry before we start hawaiian t shirt.
a little bit excessive for the graveyard i suggest i wear'' t indicate any disrespect to these dropped. playthings yet it ' s the summer which'' s what i do this plaything was released by ideal toys in 1981 and. it has ties to one of one of the most prominent toys of the 1970s now the'preferred toy was evil knievel ' s. wind-up bike yet this plaything was team america see in the late
70s evil knievel kind of. obtained himself in a little bit of trouble with domestic violence currently ideal switched over gears swiftly. and intended to eliminate bad knievel'' s lightness from their playthings but they wanted to maintain the remarkable.
motorized wind-up bike that they developed so they developed group america this additionally taken advantage of.
on the americana discussion that evel knievel had while developing a team that sported the red.
blue and white now to get the recommendation around optimal employed marvel to develop a comic around.
these brand-new bike heroes that they produced now prior to we study the insane tale.
that wonder thought of for group america i'' m going to jump one line below real
quick. and read you the names of the characters now i think these are the characters that ideal.
produced and they were the ones that named them so yes there'' s no other way i ' m bearing in mind these
names. Birth with me one moment a couple of moments later on fine folks below they are cowboy.
georgia anna honcho are you prepared and yes initials of his first names are are.
you with the surname of all set wolf and wrench currently i have no idea if all these characters were.
fit to plastic and created i just know a few of them were as a result of what i could discover online.
currently like i said they used the precise same wind-up motorized motorbike action that.
made the wicked blade toy among one of the most prominent among the 1970s but that appeal.
sort of wound down without the bad knievel name so in actions wonder and i honestly can'' t tell. you if the storyline that they turned up with aided or harmed this plaything line see the tale.
is that hydra actually experimented on the mothers of these personalities consequently making their.
children mutants but not the amazing mutants that we recognize from x-men no these are mutants without.
discernible powers whatsoever until they all meet by coincidence at a bike rally after that when all.
of them are with each other their powers show up into possessing someone in their general vicinity.
and making them the marauder the dark rider now the marauder or dark cyclist had.
all their intelligence all their skills and was a remarkable murder cross motorcycle racer.
that solved criminal offenses and batter the negative guys so it'' s sort of like ghost rider without any type of. of the trendy evil one stuff marvel presented these characters within the web pages of captain america.
which sort of makes good sense i indicate team america captain america however quickly after.
they got their own regular monthly title that only lasted 12 problems from 1982 to.
1983.
Now they would certainly make an appearance again in the important things comic in 1985 under a whole.
new name and that is the rumbling riders i think by this factor yeah perfect scuttled the.
whole plaything line and it depended on wonder to grab the pieces and i can tell you nobody was riding.
that bike for long but anyhow i was surprised to uncover that there was a real tv commercial.
for group america so let'' s sit back and appreciate team america you can make them experience.
water or climb or leap it'' s team america and the incredibly stunt motorcycle the super stunt dust.
bike is designed with knobby wheels so you can make them do high jumping feats team america.
you can make them experience water or climb or jump it'' s team america and the. super stun dirt bike from perfect in a follow-up to team america.
the license obtained handed around to different toy manufacturers all throughout.
the 80s and 90s in 2019 american traditional playthings grabbed the permit for group america and.
they have strategies of launching all the personalities and the marauder number i wear'' t understand if these. will certainly still use the awesome wind-up mechanized motorcycle action however hey this is good news for.
those individuals demanding more group america now the following plaything is unfortunately an additional.
misstep in the pages of marvel comics although this is a completely different tale than that of group.
america see marvel wanted to produce a toy line and connect it to a comics and that was the saga of.
chris star now the playthings were generated by remco but whatever was developed by marvel from.
the character develops the story beats the globe itself now the playthings actually showed up.
on racks before the comics did so a lot of individuals had the misunderstanding that wonder was.
doing an adaption of the toys in truth though every little thing depended on marvel and unfortunately the.
toy line failed along with the comics series see the saga of chris starr had a lot promise.
the playthings were incredible the tale was quite amazing and the comic i appreciated it i actually have the.
full run of 11 problems and i think however through knowledge they type of proclaimed it as.
an 11 issue mini collection when i assume they had all intents of making it a recurring collection but.
by the time it was reaching that factor in the run they kind of recognized it was failing so they simply.
completed up the tale and cut connections as quickly as they can currently when i was a youngster i liked chris starr i.
had no concept regarding the comics i just understood about the playthings and i enjoyed them they i mean it was sword.
and sorcery to make sure that'' s awesome it had an incredible play attribute of being translucent gem like action. numbers'that ' s awesome and if you know me i love devices that actually go on the personality so. he had a headgear that was incredible this plaything line had a lot assurance like i claimed that amazing activity.
feature if you will of being translucent gem like numbers and characters was actually amazing i indicate.
chalk that up to something as trendy as radiance in the dark i suggest transparent toys mind blowing currently of.
program the heroes of this toy line were the ones that showed off the gem like attributes the negative guys on.
the other hand had a lava-based visual that you understand the toys themselves had textured and bumpy.
skin and rough protrusions standing out up below and there currently we could enter into the tale of kristar.
however i wish to save that for one more day however what i will certainly discuss is something i'' ve stated prior to.
which is plaything business in the 80s that go all in on a toy line and however it fails.
badly they produced amazing playsets and devices and even dragons for the characters to.
adventure on did a person claim raddus to rides they will absolutely be appearing on that program at some time.
and regarding the playset we already discussed that in failed to remember 80s playsets among the earlier.
episodes of training course the number is slipping my mind at the moment yet like any kind of amazing plaything rollout.
remco made an industrial so let'' s have a look the saga of chris a fantasy globe of. crystal warriors demons and wizards good wizards like ogiode evil wizards like sardis.
and underworld satanic forces like moltar they'' ve captured each number with a crystal prism.
that makes every little thing appear like this the legend of kristar collection each.
figure marketed separately by remco currently marvel really had high wish for chris starr i suggest.
they also included him in the marvel universe comic you know the a to z manual of all the.
different wonder characters that they released awesome comic series i love it it was a month-to-month.
page turner of characters i'' d never become aware of and inside information on the personalities that i enjoyed.
anyway chris starr made an appearance in that and kristar has actually had modern appearances also.
making cameos and comics like wonder zombies wouldn'' t it be remarkable to see a
six-inch. version of chris starr created by hasbro keeping that amazing clear plastic i.
believe children today would certainly even freak out for that currently considering that we have a theme kind of.
establishing i mean the initial two playthings that we checked out were from wonder so.
let'' s take a look at a second one produced by remco this moment taking off from the pages of dc comics.
and it is sergeant rock launched in 1982 the very same year that kristar was the sergeant rock numbers.
didn'' t feature any of the glamour and glam that the cristar toys did these were very bare basic military.
playthings albeit based on the dc comics sergeant rock currently i had a knowledge that sergeant rock existed.
in comic kind yet i never equated the characters in this plaything line to any of the ones in that comic.
apart from sergeant rock himself now i could not have recognized that these really were from the dc.
comic because the only character that has a genuine name was sergeant rock all the other characters.
either included names based on their trade like teacher or airman while others feature.
common names like cowboy or fires but remco took it one step additionally when they developed the bad.
guys to support the sergeant rock plaything line and i'' m sure it wasn ' t a mishap that the negative.
individual'' s logo of choice was a snake now not to take anything far from remco'' s sergeant rock toy line.
These numbers featured nearly no expression the arms were molded in a means that they might.
just hold their weapon and that was concerning it now i presume remco sort of just let the license.
you recognize drop off and saved a few bucks yet in the procedure of creating the sergeant rock plaything line.
they produced a number of characters of their own so there were a lot of descendants that came from.
the sergeant rock plaything line that remco generated heck they even tried to maximize the masters.
of deep space toy line with these personalities but we'' ll get involved in that in a future episode.
of plastic ghosts under a different topic currently the next plaything is from one of america'' s most. charming comic book characters which is archie these bendable figures were released in 1989 by.
jesco they featured all the charming characters from the comic including that prick reggie as.
well yet obviously you have archie jughead betty veronica and as always moose obtains no love anyhow.
at one point in plaything background bendable figures were all the craze and to be sincere for bendable numbers.
these had some truly great details and excellent coloring i imply the shades just pop from these.
characters and they look remarkable currently i'' m not an archie connoisseur whatsoever and these are certainly.
not something that i would certainly want in my collection however we'' re gon na have to quest for them anyway.
Yeah stick around for next episode for that sorry i didn'' t invest a whole lot of time on archie and. the riverdale gang but i had to return to remco and to return to the adjoined.
trend that we had going on this checklist this is another plaything generated by remco and.
it'' s based upon a comic book that was produced by archie comics in the 60s the magnificent crusaders was.
actually an incredible plaything line based upon a comic book that didn'' t really obtain that far in life see.
the crusaders made their appearance in the fly yet they quickly got their own continuous title yet it.
only lasted seven problems now the claim the fame of the mighty crusaders was that it was created.
by jerry siegel one of the makers of superman now there were eight personalities in.
total 4 excellent guys and four negative guys currently these heroes had names like the.
comet the fox the guard the web and the negative guys didn'' t fare much better with.
names like the buzzer the eraser the sting yet from what i can think is the bad guy leader.
possibly has among the coolest names of all comic book bad guys which is the brain emperor now.
this number i can'' t tell if he ' s putting on a brain hat or that'' s just his oversized mind standing out.
out the top of his head either means i have vibrant memories of seeing these playthings on the shelves.
at kmart and the one that i wanted the most that i was lastly able to find was the fox i suggest.
any kind of fan of the man of mystery character like snake eyes would certainly move towards the fox i imply complete.
face covering complete body fit with amazing fox ears and like a great deal of 60s comic publication personalities.
although these personalities had powers i assume they still had guns every one of these.
characters had a gun even the mind emperor i mean when you have a name like that i don'' t think you. need a gun however anyway the accessories were rather uncomfortable and affordable currently the devices.
were uncomfortable and pretty affordable however they were still rather amazing at the same time now.
each personality featured a shield with an emblem on it that symbolized what character it was from.
currently a few of these personalities i would certainly like to get yet the one that sticks out besides fox needs to.
be buzzard and i believe the important things that makes him really remarkable is a detachable headgear a removable.
outstanding buzzard headgear to be precise like i'' ve claimed plenty of quantities of times i'' m an actual fool for.
accessories that take place the character like headgears so this man is right up my alley anyhow.
this is a toy line that i can not wait to see what we locate on ebay when we do our hunt for them.
and shameless plug that'' s mosting likely to be next episode so swing back around to the network and check.
that episode when it'' s launched later on today now i don'' t have a huge recollection of the.
original magnificent crusaders comic and i don'' t believe that'' s any idea of my own like i stated.
it only chose seven issues and they only made three appearances in the fly comic now i'' m being. entirely prejudiced when i claim this however i would certainly enjoy to see these numbers rebound in the.
original styles of the 80s toys i mean they would look incredible on a six-inch scale i imply these.
men beside your gi joe or your marvel heroes would be incredible anyway this was just a checklist.
of 5 neglected 80s comics playthings now there are a whole lot of outstanding comic publication.
toys that were made throughout the 80s that have actually certainly been failed to remember and a whole lot of them.
were from remco remarkably remco was really the king of comic book toys back in the day yeah.
actually shocking i recognize however they created ones that probably no one else would certainly have made and yeah.
that'' s why bremco is just one of my favored 80s plaything manufacturers of perpetuity anyhow many thanks.
