    ID Help

    Hello all,

    I just recently pick up a nice nice auction of figures and accesories. Most of it was Super Joe stuff along with a Action Jackson that needed rebuilt (Done) but it had a couple others that I am unsure of. I believe that 2 of them are from Micronauts but not positive due to their size. No idea on the other, he is hard plastic with very little articulation. Had to repair his lower legs. Thanks for any help provided. I appreciate it.

    Chuck

    The first two are Android and Cyborg.



    Not enough props can go out to what I think is the UK's better kept secrets, originally a Japanese line called "Henshin Cyborg", the clever monkeys at Denys Fisher took it, made it smaller and added a keen back story. I didn't grow up in the UK, had no inkling it existed when I was 7 but when I look at this stuff I

      Cool. Thanks for your help. How tall are the original Henshin figures? My figures appear to be around 8" tall and it says they shrunk them down for this line. Thanks again.

        The other guy is Marx safari. I like to steal their heads for ST red shirts.

          Excellent! Is the safari worth having? His hands would be perfect for my Super Joe but I don't want to mutilate him if he has value.

            Most of the Henshin Cyborgs were 12" tall, but Takara also made a 8" sidekick, Shonen Cyborg. Cool toys!

              Those are the Palitoy versions of Henshin Cyborg. The first one is the Android, and the other is just called the Cyborg as mentioned above. The Shonen(boy) is the 8" Takara version, and they are similar but not exactly the same.

              I'd be interested in the Android if you want to sell/trade him, could take the Cyborg too, but I already have one of those.

                  Great! I can dig up all of the extra Super Joe stuff I have. I don't have too much, a couple of Luminos legs I think and a jumpsuit or two if you could use them. I have plenty of 12" Joe stuff if you're interested.
