Sadly true. Even then, _Toxic Crudaders_ and _EWJ _ were top-notch toys. I'd argue both those lines are more impressive in terms of sculpts and accessories, but like you say, they had to build on the firm foundations the Turtles started. Highly impressive legacy.
@@DoctorInk20 agreed. I prefer the Toxic Crusaders as a collector and even as a kid they had something about them, maybe it’s the origins of Toxie, but they’re great!
Earthworm Jim was always that cool game/comic/toy series that I'd see laying around my 8yr older brother's room. It was the epitome of cool in my mind. Only toy I owned myself was the scuba gear version of Jim and it was a big favorite of mine
I picked up Peter Puppy andnthe Princess yesterday. They joined my old EWJ on my shelf. Now i'll be on the lookout for the badguys. And possibly some cows
That second wave never getting made was a huge travesty. I mean it had THE main villain (Queen Slug-For-A-Butt) for crying out loud! And one of my personal favorite villains, too (Evil Jim)! Heck, I'm even bummed we never got the Professor, either!
I had every single one of these. Earthworm Jim is amazing, and it made my childhood more awesome! I have been on a EWJ and the tick kick here lately and I decided to start recollecting all the ewj toys. I am glad that I’m not the only one who loved the tick and earthworm Jim!
Yea man playmates toys are great! I like the Kenner stuff too, like the Beetlejuice/Ghostbusters stuff. I agree, the toxic crusaders toys are awesome.I'm digging the apple imac you got in the background. Awesome video brother I love it
You've seen my review on the iMac right? The classic Mac OS9 games and apps. th-cam.com/video/OxpOrcYz7gw/w-d-xo.html Also, totally agree with the Kenner stuff, I've always liked their crazy Alien line. All the different variations, like Gorilla and Scorpion Aliens :P Thanks so much for the comment.
I have the battle damaged version in and out of the box. also i have the Princess whats her name in the box, and the pop off head earthworm jim in the box and Psycrow in the box. I want some more of the bad guys now these action figures are getting really expensive to collect. Kinda wish whey would reissue them like they did the turtles.
Great video! I personally like Earthworm Jim 2 over the first game. Andy asteroids becomes tiring after every single level. Puppy Love is more satisfying to play. The gameplay mechanics are more creative in EWJ 2, in my opinion. But both are incredible games.
Hi, nice video !!!! I like a lot all about EWJ !!! A quick question, what is the name of the "Mutant Toxic Waste Mine" that was used to put Snott and Major Mucus ??? Where did you get it??? Thanks !!!!
Years ago I found a green and black Earthworm Jim in a thrift store. He is identical to the original, except the color. Do you know the story on that guy? Thanks! Enjoyed the video. I was able to get the all of the figures that were released (A lot on clearance....) They are still some of my favorites
Professor Monkey For A Head, Evil Jim, Chuck & Fifi, Doc Duodenum and Queen Slug For A Butt were cancelled. Cancelling action figures of Professor Monkey For Head and Queen Slug For A Butt was just a big epic fail. Those 2 are major antagonists.
When i think of kick ass toys, i INSTANTLY think of TMNT, Motu, Toxic Crusaders and Earthworm Jim and Transformers of all shapes and sizes (i love Beast wars especially) these days? TMNT toys are GARBAGE. its so sad to see how far the mighty have fallen. the Tv Show (the CGI one) is AMAZING though. the new TMNT cartoon and Toys are even WORSE however. absolute garbage from everything ive seen of them.
Oh true? I used to love beast wars but all the transmetals I had fell apart, snapped joints, etc. I picked up the TMNT Lego and Playmates Figures with the Anchovy Alley playset, to be honestm the quality was pretty decent and Playmates also did those Classic Collection bigger figures. In saying that though, my kids would rather be playing with the old stuff... Mutagen Man and Muckman
playmates company was built on the turtle’s shell,nothing else ever comes close to how HUGE the TMNT were and still are for Playmates

I went through a faze years ago trying to collect them all. Psycrow was always my fav, still have him
I really need to get Earthworm jim figures, they can be quite pricey now. I loved them as a kid, played with them a lot

Playmates did some fantastic stuff in the 90s! I’m really glad I got these when I did.
Awesome childhood memories with this toy line, awesome video man you just gained a new sub
Love this toy line, great upload!
Great video...I didn't get to see the toys...have the submarine Jim one hiding in my cupboard.
Neat stuff. Henchrat reminds me of the bad guys from Battletoads.

I really dig the little Evil Cat figure...👌🏼🤪
I wonder who did the toy box art? That pocket rocket art is sick.
So cool the earth work Jim actions figures
I still have the Princess what's her name figure on my shelf.

Very Cool Toy Line
You got something on your tooth. Can’t stop staring the whole time!

I wanted the psy crow one so goddamn much
Great video about eartg worm Jim figs! Instant fan bro
Hi! I'm curious if you're planning on buying/reviewing the Platinum DNA earthworm jim figures? They should be shipping out later this month
Well, I just found out about them - Thanks to you! I'll be keen to see if they ever make it to Australia...
They also made a Green Lantern Earthworm Jim.
I have Jim and henchrat and evil the cat are on their way!
You can say send the link where you bought the Earthworm jim dolls
Professor Monkey For A Head, Evil Jim, Chuck & Fifi, Doc Duodenum and Queen Slug For A Butt were cancelled. Cancelling action figures of Professor Monkey For Head and Queen Slug For A Butt was just a big epic fail. Those 2 are major antagonists.
Great video!
The cows are coming you gotta run the cows are coming
I had the pocket rocket as a kid and wish I knew what happened to it Haha
Yes!! Someone else with a channel like me! Haha. Subbed! Nice!! Keep it up bro!
I own all the toys of earthworm jim :D sealed still on display on my wall with my Todd MacFarlane spawn toys and anime toys he made that time xD
Subbed!
pdna!!!
I find it near impossible to listen to a grown man talk about action figures unless they have a British accent. Odd.
