[Buddha 3]

Erm.....Tiny, Dopey, Sneezy, Slutty, and Sleezy?
Heck, I don't know. The series just popped to mind, I watched it when I was still only kneehigh, or something.

 

[Inferno]

Two Vultrons?

Manning, I must be one of those people that doesn't remember the latter. Then there was GI JOE, which was cool at the time. I've never seen re-runs though.

the other action force team/unit was a space one they then progressed to posable figures, these where only available with vehicles in the early days.I was big on the action force comics too
the stalker and storm shadow story was my fave.

Man my all time favorite cartoons are Original Luneytoons...

I love all the ACME **** they would come up with.. Especially in the Road Runner. Really got a kick out of them on the Green Smelly stuff in the days of my youth!

i have to have over 450 toys on the shelf... call me a geek, but 200 of them are original generation one tranformers... i got some new japanese transformers. they take like an hour to transform...

anyone ever watch star blazers? along with battle of the planets? now THERE'S a classic...

robotech !

Sorry lads.

Robotech is tha bomb.

Best cartoon ever. Good story and characters.

And Jetfire/Skyfire from the Transformers is actually a knock off of a Robotech Veritech.

Star Blazers is cool too. I will be getting all these on DVD when I get some work

There was an excellent thread on arstechnica that went for weeks about 80's cartoons.

 

[sensei]

and robotech is the american version of...

japan's macross...

i HAVE jetfire... wish i had the macross veritechs... the new ones from the toy company called yamato are actually really cool. much articulation...

oh, and japan's version of star blazers was: SPACE BATTLESHIP YAMATO.

call me a blasphemer, but i can't "F" with that subtitled $h!t...
