    My 2 faves were Giant ZRX & Redhorn the Terrible. The little wind up ones were fun too.
    great to see someone remember these.


    can these be bought anywhere.
    i think there was a cartoon of these.

    I got the Roland Rat toy for christmas one year. Thought it was before '85 but I could be wrong.

    does anyone remember zoids.

    I had castle greyskull, but never got snake mountain for my poor Skeletor figure. Did anyone here notice how He-man's and Skeletor's swords joined together back to back to make one sword? I never found out the significance of that and certainly cannot recall any episode where the two swords were joined!

    Here are some scans from the Autumn 1985 Argos catalogue - I had the A-Team camp set.(The Ewok vilage in the second post might look familiar if you look at the Robin Hood post!)

    I've got the Autumn 1985 catalogue, as well as a few Christmas ones from around the late 80s. But I'd love to see more scans from Argos catalogues from the mid-80s and early '90s - I'm sure I remember one with a Bendy Bully in it, as well as a Marvel tower playset with figures of Wolverine, Magneto and Spider-Man.

    Oh no Huggie! One of my biggest sadnesses is that I didn't have a daughter to buy girlie things for

    My eldest son had some of these toys, the Ghostbusters Ecto 500 vehicle, Batmobile, Batwing and the four Ninja Turtle small figures.
