Joe wise, the WHALE, the Mobile Command Centre and I did kinda want a Cobra hydrofoil. But I had a choice when I was 11 in early '89: WHALE or HAVOC for my birthday and went with the HAVOC. As for the MCC, I lusted after it in the Argos catalogue for a long old time...

Transformers wise, Sunstreaker (got a repro a few years back), Tracks and Jazz.

1993 Battle Force Action Man and the 1994 Rapid Fire Action Man. Both of which were realistic looking soldier types before the extreme sports crap took over.

Tyco Mechwarriors.

Alas, instead I came out with whatever monstrosity was in
the KB Toys bargain bin.

As an adult I've gotten most of the things I wanted when I was a kid - the large Inhumanoids monsters, the Ghostbusters firehouse, and just recently a Mauler (a weird hole in my childhood Joe collection).

But the one thing I didn't get that I've never been able to acquire actually came out when I was an adult. Back in the late 90s Bathing Ape released 12" Beastie Boys action figures. They came in a big sardine can like the cover of Hello Nasty. I want to say they were a couple hundred dollars, which was a no-go at the time. I wish I'd figured it out.

Kidrobot rereleased them a few years ago for $750 and I still couldn't justify it. Thankfully Super 7 has the license now and while they probably won't release 12" figures, I imagine plenty of smaller guys are coming. The ReAction figures they've released so far are great.

Choice between WHALE and HAVOC and you went with the HAVOC? Oops!

For me it was easily the Flagg. My best friend had it and I was insanely jealous. He had to keep it in the basement where it was dark and damp and had junk all over the place but I always insisted on seeing it when I was at his house. Really wish they would reproduce it.

When I was a kid it was the Terror Drome. Sure the Flagg too but I knew we didnt have room for it. I wanted the Terror Drome very badly. Never got it. Still don't have it.
