That blue crystal castle I had it as a kid I felt it was boring wow, not knowing how important it would've become.I had a few ewoks I got them back again.Now i have more star wars then I did then.Good show thx for sharing with us all.Be blessed everyone take care.
in the 80s I used to love Zoids and had a big collection until my little brother decided to take them all apart while I was at school - I was heartbroken.
Good list. Brought back some memories. I'd say my top 10 (ok 11) list would be as follows: 1. GI Joe 2. Star Wars 3. Transformers 4. Masters of the Universe 5. Super Powers 6. Thundercats 7. Visionaries 8. COPS 9. Silverhawks 10. Battle Beasts 11. Spiral Zone
Some definitely COOL and VINTAGE Toys. Great little vid to reminisce. Some obscure lines as well. Funny, I remember my brother have a Tonga, but had no idea until I saw you vid today that he came from the Brave Star Line. I always wondered where he got him from. However, I CAN NOT believe you missed - A-TEAM, BUCK ROGERS & Battlestar Galactica, Micronauts, Tonka Steel Warriors, Zoids D&D and a few others. Easily a TOP 50+ What were you thinking? LOL. Enough playful chastising. It was fun to go down Memory Road and all the Fantastic Stories and Great times we all had with those toys. Thanks
I finally had time to watch this. Great List, Mike. I'm very impressed. Scary, I remember all these toy lines. Each line you showed took me back to the stores I saw them in. Good times. Sadly most of those stores no longer exist. Also, being an only child helps to get you lots of toys, lol.
Ahhhhhh Big Mike...this was really😃 awesome interesting,&agree witcha on so many lines🤛You also showed me some lines I didn't know existed,babyboy u lit this🗒 up🔥🔥🔥🎶u dropped the bomb on me,💣baby💥
Had quite a bit of this stuff still got some left that I didn’t know what it was from things I’ve never heard of. There’s a lot of stuff I had but had no idea what happened to it still have some bits and pieces and had no idea what it came off but recognise it on this video.
Great list. A few I'd drop in Dungeons&Dragons, Micronauts, Zoids, StarCom, and Manglors. Still a very respectable top 40! Edit: and the Warlord toys. Not as iconic as Heman, but infinitely better built imo.
Blackstar? Slow and steady clap 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿 of appreciation. We need a Super 7 version of John, Overlord , Vizier, Mara, Klone and a crap ton of Lava Locs..stat!! 😂 Thank you for this Mike..it's like therapy 🙏🏿
I Am late getting around to watching this. Mike thank you so much for compaling all this information without it .I simply wouldn’t know that these toy lines exist. Going to go watch an episode of mask!
In 1980 empire destroyed all the other toy lines because there were no other toylines that were memorable. It wasn't until Reagans de-regulation that the flood gates opened up and everyone overtook star wars starting in 1982.
OK….I guess that’s your take. 🤪 1. GI Joe 2. MOTU - we played the heck out of them. 3. Star Wars. Lots of lines I hadn’t heard of cool too see. Missing a few too I would add (M-Force) - a not too expensive MOTU/Joe/Rambo mash up w/ tons of accessories. The Crystar comic was about the best short lived comic ever, and the toys were really cool too.
@@tydiriumhanger1320 in some ways go-Bots (or robo machine as they were known here in ireland) were better than transformers... If they had proper marketing behind them such as a decent cartoon and a comic book behind them the line would have been more successful.. And yes the cartoon that we got wasn't all that bad but it could have been better.
Anyone here have Bone Age toys? (don't laugh) As a kid who loved dinosaurs I liked them a lot, still have most of them. I don't know anyone else that has ever heard of them.
Not being a Star Wars fan, I had no idea what was number one if it wasn't Transformers. For a second there I thought you going to say Playmobil. I was, like, do you not like fun?
I only liked transformers but at 1 times if I went with other things I got my top 5 would be 5- gobots 4- he-man 3- starcom 2- star wars and 1 transformers
Mike gotta disagree with putting STAR WARS 1st. The 5POA instantly became obsolete when G.I.JOE came around. I never picked up another Star Wars figure after 1983. I wouldve put Transformers FIRST, G.I.JOE Second, Star Wars 3rd, M.A.S.K. 4th.
Top 40??!!?? Okay, I admit, I jumped to near the end once I had a top five in my mind and am surprised some of these lines were ahead of Heman/MOTU, okay, I guess it's time to rewind and see how low you had that line.
I have a love hate relationship with MOTU and sold it all off years ago for many reasons but build being the main issue. Origins revived the line for me and seems the same for many
@@o_oo_o1812 Tmnt was fun but Playmates came out with these after Gijoe and many other lines with real articulation and gave us 5 poa squat poses. Neca is fixing that though
@@tydiriumhanger1320 it's an interesting take as this is your top 40 NOW on the lines that existed in the 80s versus your top 40 of 80s figures while you were a child in the 80s. Obviously, things would be scrambled if you made a list of the latter. If I was to make a top 40 fav lines from when I was a kid, I don't think it would reach that wide.

Those look cool and seem to have mechanical mechanisms
Zoids were fun. One of the lines I remember Dad getting into a bit with me lol.
@@tydiriumhanger1320 Zoids is another 1 that should have been on the list..

Excellent list. Would love to see many of these in new toy n cartoons

Some of those I completely forgot about, but like most kids I had a little of most of them. But damn I loved gijoe growing up.
Wow talking about Nostalgia. Awesome video.
So many great choice to pick!
Classic Space Lego, like Kenner Star Wars, began in the late 70s but hit its stride in the 80s. That's got to be at least in the top 3 for me.
Thanks lot of good memory,s
Happy you enjoyed this
@@tydiriumhanger1320 yeah i did but i got mask on nr 1
Great video

I had a Sectar and didn't even know it! Could never for the life of me remember what it was because the box got thrown away immediately.
Transformers is 1#
I agree 👍🏻👍🏻♥️💯!
It is a constant struggle for me between SW and TF while Hasbro is pushing be back to TF every week
HARD AGREE! All others are #2 or higher.
OK….I guess that’s your take. 🤪 1. GI Joe 2. MOTU - we played the heck out of them. 3. Star Wars.

Yep the top 5 seem to flip flop around glad you enjoyed
No hate on Star Wars the mythos was great, but I didn't enjoy the figures much. I'd take a Joe over a SW toy any day.
@@tydiriumhanger1320 ironic you mentioned casey casem seeing as he voiced some of the characters from some of these lines.
@@tydiriumhanger1320 in Japan battle beasts was tied in with transformers.. They even appeared in at least 1 episode of the japanese G1 cartoon.
@@tydiriumhanger1320 in some ways go-Bots (or robo machine as they were known here in ireland) were better than transformers...

Every person has their own fave '80s toyline, mine's all about japanese and american robots while my sister's collection of Bugs Bunny dolls
It sure is hard to beat all of those great bots from the 80s
Top 40 " Vinnie's " dude damn near érr thang from the 80s was n iz on hella point
Bought a John Blackstar in the middle of watching this.

StarCom was such an under appreciated toyline. I loved those things!
@@GibDozer1 agree wish still had my collection
Mike gotta disagree with putting STAR WARS 1st. The 5POA instantly became obsolete when G.I.JOE came around. I never picked up another Star Wars figure after 1983. I wouldve put Transformers FIRST, G.I.JOE Second, Star Wars 3rd, M.A.S.K. 4th.
Wheeled Warriors deserves better on your list.
No Starriors or Zoids :(
I have to disagree with anything on visionaries because the toy line had a huge fundamental flaw. No animal versions of the characters!
No love for Star Com 😢
Travesty of Justice! Such an under appreciated line.
No Rocklords!!!
Something about you makes me think you had every pound puppy
I think I had a McDonalds version of them
This list is very one note. At least throw a care bear or gremlin in there somewhere. Maybe a Lego, dinosaur something, super soaker or nerf
Maybe should have said Action figure lines. I considered My pet monster that was a cool line and lazer tag
@@tydiriumhanger1320 I had a feeling you meant action figures. I forgot laser tag xD
Top 40??!!?? Okay, I admit, I jumped to near the end once I had a top five in my mind and am surprised some of these lines were ahead of Heman/MOTU, okay, I guess it's time to rewind and see how low you had that line.
He kept tmnt in the 30s, sort of surprising
I have a love hate relationship with MOTU and sold it all off years ago for many reasons but build being the main issue. Origins revived the line for me and seems the same for many

No Starcom??? That’s blasphemous!
