Strange,I have A set of these as well.Maybe some type of rack toy?<>_<> I will always be watching you, always. -
They are a rack toy - they were sold like plastic army men in clear bags with folded cardboard toppers. They were mostly marketed as dinosaurs, though a number of them were clearly cryptozooalogical.Comment

yeah, they were sold as dinosuars. I remember having the squatty pointy one.You must try to generate happiness within yourself. If you aren't happy in one place, chances are you won't be happy anyplace. -Ernie BanksComment

Hmmmm....
Those have been around for a long time, and they still show up in toy stores now and then. A couple of points:
-a lot of them are "inspired" by Ultraman monsters. There's two of them in that pic: one that's close to Neronga, one that's not as close to Gabora
-A lot of the monsters from this set were used as playing pieces by the original designers of the Dungeons and Dragon's game, and became official monsters once the game was published. (So from this pic, the Gabora lookin' one became the D&D Bulette.)
