Favorite Toy Pollllll.

I'm currently rewriting a pretty old feature on one of my favorite action figures of all time. There's a shocker, but let's get a poll out of it. What's your favorite toy, ever? Try to stick with what you've personally owned.

I still have that fisher price space crawler with the orange frog alien. It does rule.

a real toughie, but that honor would have to go to Barnyard Commandos series 1. Don’t know why, but around 1989/90, toy companies decided to come up with bizarre war toys such as food fighters and Army Ants(which I also collected). But I’d have to side with the pork and rams, who not only had a animated miniseries, but was able to last for a second series. Just loved the Pork-a-pult.

A close second would be the Toxic Crusaders Toxie Action Figure(Is it just me, or did PLaymates own the early ninties). Being a huge fan of the show, this guy was well equiped, including his trusty mop, which I could never get the action feature to work. It broke within a few months, but nothing calls to you from a kaybee shelf like a toxie hidden among the ninja turtles and wwf head squirters.

Probably Marvel Minimates, Marvel Legends, or that gi-normous Spider-Man with 67 points of articulation.

Uh what action feature on the Toxie figure? I have one still on card, and one that isn’t, and he’s just a regular figure, a la TMNT…

BTW, they’re making noise about Toxic Avenger action figures again…some Japanese company this time.

Any of the original Super Powers line of action figures…Batman & Green Lantern were the best. And of course, Hawkman!

call me crazy, But I could’ve sworn on the toxic crusaders toy commercial, the toxie figure had slime come out of his mop on one of the villians. It’s the only reasonable explaination for why there were holes in the mop. Either that or toxie made a ceramic mop and didn’t want it to blow up in the kiln.

My favorite was my MOTU Frosta figure. I lost her when i was four. I was playing in the front yard and a neighborhood dog stole her right out of my tiny little hands. Damn dog.

Well, Playmates did make the toxie figure, and they were pretty much dropping actions after figures were made a lot. I know there were some TMNT guys that didn’t do what they were supposed to, and there’s the whole Levar Burton Star Trek figure visor thing on his first figure.

Favorite toy? as a child… that would most definitely have been battle damage skeletor… then later modulok… I could never remember his name, but I had like 6 of them, and built many things… too bad the little nubs were smaller than the ones for the other he-man figures… I would love to strap trapjaw’s arms to that sumbitch.

There is one toy to rule them all, and that would be……………….SNAKE MOUNTAIN!

Totaly all-time favorite is the Inhumanoids figures. It was just the craziest thing back then !!! Almost like a horror movie put into cartoons and the action figures were the biggest I’ve ever seen, check out the archive when it’s back on line and you’ll see…

It would probably be my stuffed Fraggle Boober. He was the best! I also really liked my Moon Dreamers PLay house thing. I don’t think the Moon Dreamers ever really caught on…hmmm

This is probably a little late, but better late than later…

I have to say my favorite past time was unscrewing the old GI Joes and making new figures out of old ones. Nothing says cool like Destro with the red cobra outfit and one webbed green hand. Surprisingly, morphing storm shadow and snake eyes doesn’t beget the super-sweet ninja you would expect…who knew?

*Matt, Rodimus prime was probably my most hated toy (I mean…he killed Optimus, dammit). However, since it was the only one I had for a summer, I have to say he’s been branded into my memory. DAMN YOU AND YOUR ELBOW-LESS ARMS, RODIMUS!

I think BATTLE BEASTS (fire, water, earth, air) and M.U.S.C.L.E. (those little pink things in a thousand different shapes)… hey and what about M.A.S.K…. those cool vehicles like the motorcycle that morphed into an ATTACK HELICOPTOR! YEAH!
Hey man do an article one one of these!

I saved my favorite toy of all time..it was the original red power ranger, Jason. I used to parachute him off of my roof, bury him in dirt, throw him into stuff, and he was also my friends barbies date :p His legs ended up breaking off and splitting, so i used to make a ‘cast’ for him out of wet toilet paper. It would actually harden too. Needless to say, hes in rough shape, but he’s put away in a safe place now, lol!
