    ^ Haha, rules.

    The Bug in back isn't so bad, either. My friend Eleanor had one of those big, driveable versions, same color, back in the day. I was in it the afternoon it died, actually, when the strain of a 720 in the rain literally rent the frame in half! The car came complete with the most wonderful and conspicuously puffy Shriner stickers all along the back hub. We couldn't save them either. :(

    Sure, man! Glad it made you happy! They were a large part of my youth as well. Especially the ocean and space themed versions (the space themed versions fit right in amongst 1st gen Star Wars too).

    So speaking of this, I meant to show you something awhile ago, but apparently I forgot. At least I eventually remembered, because I’m in love with this toy.

    Did you see the FP AP X-ray Woman one-off version of Nazora 1? Unfortunately there was only one made for the 1st Indy Sofubi Rally last May. Here is an excerpt of a post I put up in the Blues Gangu thread:

    “There have been a lot of good additional versions, but the Adventure People X-Ray Nazora takes the cake for me. I can’t get over that clear green and I find it very appealing that he even included the circuit board chest design! Hope to track this fella down some day!”

    :shock:
    :shock: Hoooollllyyyyy crap! This is SO amazing. No, I completely missed that JP, so thank you so much for bringing it to my - clear - attention. :oops: Love this toy, and I wholeheartedly agree on it being the best version possible. Even if it was just a one off, knowing that this exists is putting such a happy, childlike gleeful grin on my face, and filling me with so many warm fuzzies. Big thank you to the creator(s) for making this possible.

    Yep, I was all about the undersea explorer set, as well as the shuttle, those got so much play in my youth - and say what you will about them, these FP toys were meant to LAST. I got most second hand I think, and they could easily last a few more generations. And I mean, I put them through the paces (which included years spent on roofs, buried in sandboxes, many, many bathtubs, and general kid-handling adventures!). I also have to give a special shout out to the Alpha Star, which was one of the most memorable presents I ever received (most others being hand-me-downs and inherited via other means). :thumbsup: Ahh, such memories. Thanks JP, you are really stirring up the good stuff today.

    Any of you all ever into these little fellas? My girlfriend and I were obsessed with them for a solid year.

    This is my Rampage Arena NIB.

    Galaxy Heroes 'Dragoon' (Basically a bootleg of the MOTU KO line 'Galaxy Warriors' with an altered head sculpt).
    I'm getting into these bootlegs . . .

    I’m a fan. They’re everything in a toy that I would have loved as a kid too. Mini wrestling figures of zany humanoid monsters with interchangeable parts, some of which are translucent versions, that’s so many of my favorite childhood lines mashed together. I used to dig that Interchangeables action figure line a lot (I think that is what they were called) , but I also used to pop open my MASK, Dino Rider, Computer Warriors and other mini figures of the same size so I could exchange parts. Mutant Mania’s nice because I don’t have to break my toys to mix them up, plus there’s a greater diversity with the types of parts and amount of parts available...

    Andy, are they still releasing new characters?

    There’s actually a bag of my doubles, triples, etc, sitting in a bin over here titled, “SB Holiday Raffle Extras”. If I have enough (and it depends on how many people enter), everyone who wins this year’s holiday raffle will get 2 each . It takes 2 to wrestle, 3 to tango, and 4 to bobsled.

    I don't think they're releasing anything new, as far as I'm aware...

    Actually visiting the Moose Toys website, Mutant Mania is nowhere to be found. No Mutant Mania but plenty of Shopkins stuff...

    I wish I could have supplied goodies for the raffle, but I don't have enough extra minis or anything pocket-sized to give out. :(

    I really enjoy the bright colored circus type vibe to these new ones. Especially knowing they are really horrifying murder machines.
