Ah, the eighties. A time when action figures were small, inexpensive and often really odd for one reason or another. And here's a random box full of them!
On the menu today we have... The world's most neon DJ - Bizarre Schwarzenegger spin-offs - Star Trek's Doctor McCoy with hideous broken fingers - A soon-to-be-dead space family - The A-Team's secret link to the Love Boat - Superman's Dad with serious nasal problems - Ernest Borginine - A space enforcer from a seventies disco - Mork and regret - A bionic parentage dilemma - a wizard with mouldy underpants - post-apocalyptic truckers - the world's shiniest soldiers - half a dalek - and a legless Saddam Hussein.
For dessert? Headache.

I have a copy of the entire "Captain Power" show and it's VERY dark, gritty, and serious for a kids show. I remember one of the reasons that the show got pulled was that a lot of parents flipped out over it because it was so dark and violent and used live action instead of cartoon violence. It was a very dark show. I seem to remember people getting killed in it in several episodes. At the time, parents were used to kids shows being all animated and kid friendly and then this show pops up that's all serious, with live actors, taking place in a post-apocalyptic setting, with the starving last breath of humanity struggling in a losing battle against an onslaught of death robots. The parents didn't respond well. I think in my area, the show was pulled from it's station after three episodes because of the sheer volume of parent complaints they got flooded with. And that was a shame, because as a teen at the time, I watched it and said, "Wow! Here's something different and interesting that you don't see on TV.... CRAP!!! ANOTHER SHOW THEY CANCELLED JUST AS I STARTED TO GET INTO IT!!!!" Haha!!!

Someone's probably said this already, but the original Japanese material that formed Robotech was Macross, and a couple of other mecha anime all chopshopped together by Harmony Gold in a very Joseph Lai kind of method. Don't know who Joseph Lai is? He's the animation equivalent of Godfrey Ho, ramming stuff together and re-dubbing it to fit the five minutes of original footage. The two men even worked together on several occasions, with Lai producing some of the various Ninja movies.

Captain Power and the Soldiers of the Future is one of my all time favorite shows. I loved this show when it was new back in 1987 and I’m one of the few people who also really liked the Captain Power toy line as well. It’s a shame that the show didn’t get future seasons and that the toy line got a ton of flack from parents who were against the massive advertising campaigns to get children to buy toys during the 80’s. I’m trying to recollect the entire line. Great little show that was way ahead of its time. The storylines and characterizations were all very adult in theme and the production values were fantastic! I recommend any fans of the post apocalyptic genre to give Captain Power a look, it’s quite good!

Weirdly Action Man popped up in the early 2000s in America on syndication. I think the CGI tv show anyways. I got one of the bigger dolls of him but as I have cousins in the UK who I frequently interacted with, I can't remember if I got it in America or the UK UPDATE: YES It was on Fox Kids in America and the toys were sold In America too. So a US toyrange (GI Joe) was rebranded in the UK, spun off into it's own thing, then the UK company was bought by the American company, the UK one slowly became the US one, then the UK was brought back as it's own solo thing and released in the UK and the USA by the US company. Life's funny sometimes

The Corps space-y one they did was from a series of animal-themed ones that came with aircraft/hang glider thingies, I had 4 or 5 of those as a kid. Also the missing thumb on the guy before was because Corps guns were slightly different size to GI Joe ones, so one of the first things that used to break on GI Joe and Corps figures, especially when using the Corps guns that had thicker handles, was snapping the thumb off when changing guns.

The Tonka figures were part of some post-apocalyptic series of trucks that they made around 1986 or so. I bought the one with the metal faced guy for my nephew as a Christmas gift around then.

The alien with the ass head at 7:34 is a Zaranite; it's supposed to have a metal breather mask over its face. Mego lobbied heavily for "Star Trek: The Motion Picture" figurine rights, and the 3-inch action figures sold poorly (some of them were collecting dust in stores until the mid-1980s.)

I remember some of these action figures from my childhood. Like the Mork from Ork figure and A-Team figures. I never knew the Love boat had action figures. That's hilarious.

The Fisher Price neck articulation allowed the figures to lie down in vehicles while keeping their head facing forwards. They had some simple model kit playsets. I had the Turbo Hawk jet fighter. It was fairly nice little (disproportionate) F15.
