The movie was a perfect send off of stop motion animation and Ray's best work in my opinion.

I had only one figure from the line, Calibos. I remember the tail breaking off real easily.

I was born after these toys came out. I'm sure they were long dead when I first saw this movie. But man there was so much potential for more toys. Andromeda, Zeus, Calibos with dagger hand, and the Huntsman (one of Calibos' men) as basic figures, Medusa and Dioskilos as creatures, a three pack of the Stygian witches with cauldron and eye, and a Temple of Thetis playset

They should have done a Medusa with removable head and a translucent invisible Perseus with a more accurate colored and looking sword, shield, and helmet just like the other Perseus should have had, Calibos with his whip and farked hand wearing a blue toga, 2 vs packs with the guardsmen versus the two-headed wolf and the other vs the giant scorpion, and Andromeda should have came with the Kraken, the owl should have been an accessory to the standard Perseus, and they should have had the gods of Olympus figures too or at least Zeus.
@edwardstewart6372 Жыл бұрын
I also forgot to mention the giant vulture with Calibos's main henchman, a generic henchman single carded figure and, the three blind witches. I'm curious to see what a multi articulate version of all these figures would look like ?

As a Motu fan, I love this line! One of the last “made in the Philippines” lines before the Mattel factories transferred to Taiwan and Malaysia.

The Kraken is one of the jewels in my collection (along with Tiamat!). The only item I cannot obtain is Pegasus, whose immobility I think is actually an asset (of sorts), giving it a sculptural quality What a film! Still absolutely love it. Agree that Super7 need to get their grubby mitts on this property, Medusa and Stygian Witches, oh and Andromeda figures would just be incredible

I'm lucky to still have all my Clash figures, but I only have 1 sword and 1 shield left, and Calibos has lost his tail! However, any number of weapons from other 3 3/4" figure lines will fit into their hands, including Indiana Jones' whip for Calibos! My Pegasus has tragically lost a foreleg and has some yellowing, but I just prop him up behind a rock and he looks terrific. Thanks for an excellent video!

Thank you. That is a really good idea using Indiana Jones's whip

Mark Taylor can swear up and down that he totally created Skeletor as a kid, but it's obvious Skeletor was just a reuse from the concept of Captain Drake from Big Jim and Charon.
