Yeah I think you're right. I used to have that bloody thing, my Megatron broke out of the box one Christmas and when my parents took it back to the shop they'd sold out so they came back with a Gobots Command Centre instead. Not a good swap.
The pirate in the orange trousers looks really familiar. I'm pretty sure I had that figure as a child but know absolutely nothing about it. A lost childhood memory unlocked for sure.
It's always fun seeing you open donations! The figure of James Bond Jr came with a gray/silver shell that flung off revealing the gun. His blonde friend with the o-ring is a relative of Felix Lighter's I believe.
I had almost everything Action man in my childhood mid 1970s to mid 1980s but I never had space Ranger Action man or captain Zargon I was more for the military stuff Great upload you get sent some really great stuff 👍👍
Those Zargon figures are terrifying. I think the spinny thing on the back of Raph is so that he can spin around on his back (a bit like the vintage Orko figure used to do) but I might be wrong. Someone is bound to let you know for sure. Coincidentally I just bought a General Traag figure at the Norwich Toy Fair today, so it's weird that you got one too! Great gifts Dave!
16:51 the riddler figure is from the Batman Forever film, so the Jim Carey Riddler. TM may say 1996 but was released in 1995. The Robin figure is another Kenner figure. Bizarrely it’s actually a Batman Returns Robin figure. Yes the Tim Burton sequel which didn’t feature Robin I think originally he was gonna feature at some point in the film but then he got written out. He was gonna be played by Marlon Wayans I think in Burton’s version of the third Batman film that became Batman Forever.
If I remember right Wayans was actually contracted so even though later revisions of the script wrote Robin out he still got paid. The figure is a weird one, it's obviously not based on concept art from the movie (Wayans is black and was apparently supposed to wear some kind of leather biker gear rather than the usual red spandex) and looks much more like it's based directly off the contemporary comics version of Robin. I'm sure there is a reason he showed up in the Batman Returns toyline but off the top of my head I can't remember it. I think I'm right in saying Kenner retooled this figure to make their Animated Series Robin.
I was thinking either that or the Mego Green Arrow. EDIT - I've had a look and it definitely doesn't look like the Green Arrow one. I wondered if it might be Big Jim but Googling Big Jim Bow is a nightmare because there's actually a company that makes bows called Big Jim's Bows!
A great unboxing video from Dave and awesome acts of kindness from Damien and Elliot.
Those Zargon figures are fantastic.
Happy to see your new channel...looking forward to seeing more toys from the 80, and 90s
Welcome aboard
I think the gray floor pieces belong to the Gobots Command Center
I believe you are right, sir.

Yes, indeed. “Breakfightin' Raphael”.
He is missing the gyro-lid thingy which allows you to wind him up, set him on his back, and watch him go.
Great bits, Dave! Amazing Variety!! Thanks for the share!
Thank you kindly!

I was going to say the same thing about the Robin figure. It's an official Batman Returns figure despite them not going ahead with Robin in the film.

Hey Dave
Thank you for sharing, all nice donations.
Take care😊
Thank you too
18:06 - They are indeed Pirates made by "Toy Island". They were specifically known as "Voice Raiders".
Thanks! Time to do some research on them.
If memory serves, the Silverhawks Mon-Star figure had a flip mechanism similar to the Power Rangers figures. 🙂
I think the grey shelf pieces are from Gobots command center
14:42 - That's Bruno Shephard's clone from the Barracuda vehicle.
Thanks 👍
Neat to see you get some Power Rangers stuff here, as I’ve been wondering if you could try restoring some stuff from that series.
Excellent unboxing 😊
Thank you 🤗
Very nice!
Thanks!
Gi joe action manis not cheap my eay in southern Illinois. Nice dave🇺🇸🤠🇬🇧🍻
I even have a broken tricarton from TMNT 80's
I want to make that video in the future, don't rush yourself, and have a good day 😊😊😊
Robin is Tim Drake Robin from Batman returns line
Who has the better mullet? James Bond Jr or Captain Planet?
I’m sure the bow is a action man one, came with a set to dress action man as a Native American.
I was thinking either that or the Mego Green Arrow.
EDIT - I've had a look and it definitely doesn't look like the Green Arrow one. I wondered if it might be Big Jim but Googling Big Jim Bow is a nightmare because there's actually a company that makes bows called Big Jim's Bows!
It seems a little too small to be Action Man. I could be wrong though.
