Vintage Tomax & Xamot HELP

Anyone know if they ever released the Twins besides the 1985 version? I just won a pair on ebay and they are so mint, they just seem like one of those 1990's re-release and the head plastic looks different. It is stamped HASBRO 1985 on the inner-thigh, so i'm guessing they are legit. Any help would be appreciated.

pristine and perfect!!!

Man, that's a really awesome set you've got there dude seriously!!
Those definitely look vintage and authentic from what I can tell.
A very nice score man, and hopefully you didn't have to pay too much
for those given the recent rise in prices on eBay auctions lately...

Yeah - they look legit. The only other releases of them came after 2000.

I think you have the original 1985 versions there. Check the eyes because I believe that the ones they reissued in 2002 had black eyes while the original ones from 1985 had brown eyes. I only have the original 1985 ones so I can't really speak for the reissued 2002 ones. If anyone does indeed have the 2002 versions did they come with black eyes instead? I also think that the paint on the 2002 versions looked more like burgandy than they do red.

The 2002 versions are probably harder to get anyway because they were not released in stores.

Yes, they have the brown eyes that match the hair/eyebrows. They seem to be official and I'm pumped. Hard to find minty loose figures, let alone for that price.

1985 versions for sure. You can tell by the quality of the plastic and paint.
