Thread: Early 80s videogame toys

  1. Early 80s videogame toys

    Something that im interested in collecting is toys from the early eighties based on videogames, the problem is I cant remember 99% of them. I know there to be five or so figurines of Pacman (such as Ms pacman from the link) vintage MS. PAC-MAN collectable arcade figure MOC Coleco | eBay What eles was available? Was there anything with Q-bert, Frogger, etc.?

    Pac-Man had all kinds of stuff. Like trading cards, Board games and plush toys. Tomy also made a neat set of Pac-Man wind ups. They ran along and chomped.
    You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

    There are Donkey kong ones, I still have Mario, but DK and Pauline are long gone. Pauline came with a mini DK arcade cabinet! There are a few other pac man ones, (one has a halo and angel wings?) Q*bert ones were out too, that's all of the PVC ones I can recall at the moment.

    I recall quite a few Pac Man items in stores back in the day...

    One thing I did have a lot of were the Pac Man, Ms. Pac Man and Donkey Kong scratch game cards, where you rubbed off the dots to play the game.

    I had all those Pac mac PVCs... and the Donkey Kong ones too.

    Bizzaro Megomauler is right about Pauline with the Cab. There was DK himself holding a barrel and DK jr on a vine as well. And of course... MARIO.

    I still have the Mr and MRs Pac wedding PVCs somewhere around here.

    I had a QBert that you wound up and he hopped as well.



    I don't remember anything for Frogger though.

    When I think of arcade figures, the first thing that pops to mind is TRON. Even before the movie came out, the game was a blast. Now of course the figures are movie based, but I still see them as true arcade figures too.
    It's not how hard you hit, but how hard you can be hit and still move forward.

    Thats a very good point. Those tron figures were great. My favorite tron game is still Disc of Tron. Its a challenge after a few levels!

    Qbert had some plush guys too in different sizes. There's a really rare stuffed Qbert snake out there too. Also the Qbert blow-mold banks are pretty cool too.
