Muton was my favourite, he had a clear purple body and internal organs and some kind of rubber flame thing that went on his hand, i loved the smell of that new rubber, reminds me of xmas morning 1976 when i was 7, love these nostalgia videos
I just love how GI Joe mutated so wildly in other countries. From Action Man's Space Rangers to New GI Joe becoming Henshin Cyborg or Brazil's Falcon & Condor. It's a fascinating toy evolution I would love one of these but I'd never be able to afford one 😅
I love the Denys Fischer Cyborgs figure because of their combined features of both Henshin Cyborg and Shonen Cyborg. Would love to own one at some point.
I never knew the Takara line had an 8 inch figure, albeit a son of the 12 inch Henshin Cyborg. I always wondered why Denys Fisher went to the trouble of reducing the size of the original 12 inch Cyborgs, now i know they didn't. I love it when i learn something new about the toys i have.
I had the 8" versions of Cyborg and King Waldo except he was called Muton or Mutant on the package and he was in Purple clear plastic. I used to use them alonside my 8" Mego figures as an extra hero and villain. Always wanted to get loads of the bad guys outfits and extra of the bad guy figure so I could balk out my villains for the heroes to fight. Pocket money was always the restraining factor though. Love these figures they were great to play with.
@@darrenwolboldtalk2 I think it may have been. I never actually saw them in the shops. Only on the back of the Mutant/Muton box. There was one who was a Fish headed monster that was trying to make all the Earth his underwater domain. According to the write up on the box. He may have had a lobster claw. I know the head looked very Dr Who monster like. But I cannot swear to it. It was about 40 years ago for me.
@@darrenwolboldtalk2 They were great like the Micronauts/Microman. I only ever got one accessories pack for my Cyborg. It had the Liquidator (or something like that name) as a lower arm fixture. I saw one in the clip it had a pippet type rubber squeeze section in the middle for sucking up then firing water at opponents. The whole range were very thin on the ground at my local toy shops though.
@@malcr2325 Yes something very engaging about the mix and match element of these toys also something other worldly about them, im sure the one at school was the one that had organs inside rather that robot bits, A thing of wounder as a kid
As a huge fan of the Micronauts and The Henshin Cyborgs, I’ve never really seen too many of the actual outfits and costumes that were sold as apart of the accessory packs. I was wondering if you owned any and if so can you do a video on the costume accessories?
A very cool figure! Thanks for the great review! The boxes for the vintage figures are always nicer than the cards with blisters in my opinion. I love the way the parts come off and can be exchanged. UFO...or is it a hover disk?
So little add on information, rough time line, hasbro made G.I. JOE 12 inch line it's from this line several other lines were made, but it was when the cyborgs went to micro that it was hasbro turn to ask the favor to use the body type to make the first 3 3/4 inch line of G.I. JOE figures with a slight alterations to the body.
Totally awesomeness Brother. I think I remember one of My Older Friends that I had growing up had one. Did any of them have a battery that You would put into for a light up? 😀👍❤🇬🇧🇨🇦🌎🎉🎉🎉🎉👏👏👏👏🎉🎉🎉🎉💯💯
My all time favourite toy as a kid I also had Android and muton and managed to swap an action man amphibious jeep for the cybo invader and sled yes I did get the better end of that deal.👍👍👍
Dave, You always have such cool toys! I love learning the history of all the Japanese toys you review.👍 I thought they had a Mego flavor to them. I plan on buying some of the Mego Micronauts Aliens soon.😁 Great review Brother 👍 Bill
STAY FAR AWAY from the Henshin Cyborg of GaoGaiGar "Shishioh" figure. I did a video on how his back SHATTERS and his red hair is STICKY. He's inexpensive for a reason.

If you look on the front of the Denys Fisher Cyborg box. Cyborg is illustrated as a Shonen cyborg.
Yes, but with the bigger adult Cyborg head on it :-)

Great review/video!! Those look really great!👍☯️👍
Love this channel for all the weird lines I've never heard of and probably never would find on my own. Keep up the good work.
"Here's one I transformed earlier..."
Great video!

I remeber one with a lobster claw was that the mutant ?

@@malcr2325 Yes a long time ago for me too. I found one at school in the early 80,s as a kid sure had a lot of fun putting different arms and legs on

Thanks for sharing I was not aware of shonen figures... I will have to look out for one.

I don't have any complete outfits. They seem very hard to get.
Another great review
Great video as always! Entertaining toy history at its best!
I've never seen any of these figures. Thanks for the review.
Fun fact he's actually Henshin Cyborg's younger brother.
These look pretty cool. Shame they're so expensive now
I love it when the English say bits & bobs
What an exciting figure line! I know what to look for now at the toy shop in japan.
A very cool figure! Thanks for the great review! The boxes for the vintage figures are always nicer than the cards with blisters in my opinion. I love the way the parts come off and can be exchanged. UFO...or is it a hover disk?
I have them all. Very expensive but, cool

wow, these are really weird and cool!
Nice video!!
Japanese kids have all the cool toys.
Dave,
You always have such cool toys! I love learning the history of all the Japanese toys you review.👍
I thought they had a Mego flavor to them. I plan on buying some of the Mego Micronauts Aliens soon.😁
Great review Brother 👍
Bill
If your going for Micronauts make sure it's the original line. The reboot line in the mid 2000's was poorly made and joints broke very easly.
Thank you for the advice!😁👍
@@billpagan3070 figured I would give a heads up on that poor excuse of a reboot.
Again thanks!👍
Toy Polloi, You are the Best!! 🤓👍 ¡¡Toy Polloi, Tu eres el Mejor!!
Have loved these for years but here in the states they are impossible to find.
They are pretty hard to find here. Just takes patience.
those are cool would love to have one but a little out of my price range.
With patience you can still find them cheaply.
STAY FAR AWAY from the Henshin Cyborg of GaoGaiGar "Shishioh" figure. I did a video on how his back SHATTERS and his red hair is STICKY. He's inexpensive for a reason.
That guy is cool
I'm surprised at how many you have! They are really expensive. I have a couple.
With patience you can still find them for a good price.
Where do you get all of those cool toys, lol great video Dave, thank you!
didnt know henshin had a son...any daughters?
Just the son, and a few allies and enemies.
i wonder if the jump suits inspired the power rangers
👍
