Why oh why did I ever sell my collection? I wish I could go home and play with them. Right now as a matter of fact.

Man...I had almost all of those toys. Many of them I had forgotten about. I think my parents gave all that stuff to one of my little cousins years ago. Damn parents!

 

[Blitzkrieg]

I still have alot of those toys. I think my brother claimed them as his own though, in case they were worth anything.

 

[Spiff]

I shouldn't have sold those OR the Transformers. Both ruled, but for some reason I decided that I'd grown out of them. What a fool I was!!

Snake Mountain ruled. Never did get my hands on Castle Greyskull, unfortunately.

 

[Blitzkrieg]

I had the castle.

 

[spawn]

I had both!

 

[Blitzkrieg]

Me too.

And I had about 3 different versions of He-Man.

 

[spawn]

Yep, and Panthor and Battlecat! Ahh the memories

She-Ra was just a hack rip off though

 

[JonBonJovi]

I loved Skeletor and Snake mountain I loved pretending I was some scary man and kidnapping barbie from gene Simmons for Skeletor...then Gene would come along and play hiss KISS stuff at the bottom of the mountain and they all would jump from the top to him!

 

[Wrathchild]

I had Castle Greyskull, Snake Mountain and just about every figure mentioned on that site. Never heard of Laser Lights He-Man though. Maybe he wasn't released in Australia?

Xena, if I'd owned any KISS figures when I was a lad, I would have played very similar games to the one you describe. I have very fond memories of arranging battle scenes on my grandparents' living room floor while Alive I and II roared in the background. Ah, youthful bliss...

I was more of a Voltron man myself, and Transformers, and G.I. Joe, and I had a strange obsession with alf, to this day i still own my ALF doona cover

Thanks for the link, Wrathy! I used to love He-Man, and Transformers as well. I had a Skeletor glow in the dark mask and shield or something - great stuff!

 

[Goreripper]

My cousin had every action figure ever. Whenever we went to his house, we would fight huge battles for the whole weekend.

I had the whole set of Voltron, and a bunch of Transformers, and a bunch of GI Joe stuff as well.

 

[Spiff]

I had Voltron (the lion one, not the poxy vehicle one). It wasn't the big one, just a sort of miniature one. Still rocked though!

Theres a He-man comic, a Voltron comic, a G-Force comic and a Transformers comic and they all came out in the last year, talk about 80s nostalgia!
