I never had any of these figures as a kid, but the Inhumanoids monsters were always pretty cool.
The exosuits of the Earth Corps were a little different and I ways preferred the exoframes of the Centurions. With vintage Metlar Herc Digger Auger Liquidator

You did a better job than Hasbro did! Nice work.
My little brother had the bulk of the line. I think he was only missing Liquidator, the vehicles, and the alt colored troops for the granite and redwood creatures. If you dumped Earth Corps the monsters made great play time for your other toy lines. I used Redlen as a tree Ent for my Dungeons & Dragons figures.

Love the figures. Been thinking about trying to make these myself. Maybe using the fallout figures that 5 Below have on sale. Thoughts?

Thanks. Yeah I kind of wish I had had some of the monsters as a kid. I think the Earth corps were like 8 feet tall in their exosuits but the tiny heads on huge not very articulated figires hurt the vintage line.
Thanks. I'm not really sure about those figures. My custom project is creating all the great 80s cartoons in modern 4 inch scale. I used the drones from the Iron man 2 line with sculpt for the details. Man if they are in good shape you have some money there. |

Loved these in your larger thread, I wouldn’t even have known how to start these guys so your vision to recreate them was fantastic! Look just like their toon / figure counterparts! Did a really great job with this group.
Actually stumbled across Herc while I was organizing some stuff in the basement today. Pretty sure he’s the only one we had growing up. I don’t remember the cartoon at all, just watched the intro......haha, not sure if I ever even saw that before.
