in the mid 80's there was a toy line that was just a few vehicles with each coming with a figure of the same scale and articulation of Star Wars figures.
The vehicles were a combination of mad max and tonka construction. The vehicle I'm looking for in particular was like a tan dumptruck with the back tires being replaced with tank treads. The cab had shielding where the windows are. The figure that came with it was a bald guy with a big mustache. His arms were mostly bare and he was wearing a purple/blue suit with gold ornamentation on the upper torso. I'm looking for it, for a custom. So any help is much appreciated. |

Maybe they were rare once but it looks like people are starting to let them go now. In the past week 13 of them sold on ebay ranging from $30-$36 for MIB and $1-$18 for loose |

I have never seen those. But they actually look pretty friggin sweet.
But it does make me wonder...I have been interested in looking for these toys I had when I was a kid. It was a little Red and grey armored guy with similar articulation as these guys that rode on a vehicles that used ziplines. I think this guy was the leader of the these zipline dudes. I know you could set them up in trees and such make them go acrossed the lines. Any help would be greatly appreciated. |
