What were the best action figures of the nineties?

Which ones do you still really like, and what makes them the best of that decade?

Hmmmm....

That's a good question.... For myself most of 'em were pretty unmemorable. I DO have a bunch of dollar store knockoffs, mostly based on the GI Joe RAH body, that I like. One set has these guys that look like buff, shaved Mogwai. From Italy.... don't remember the name, don't have the packages, but they had lots of neat stuff. (Including some neat robot vehicles I never found.)

BTAS, hands down. Dead-on screen accuracy for the most part. The streamlined, art-deco style translated really well into toys.

And in the first several years, a great assortment of figures and vehicles.

i was buying up x-men, and other marvel figs like crazy - i loved 'em i had them on display loose everywhere

i like bats anim series but there was too high ratio of batman variants to character variety

real monsters was pretty fun. I liked the little guy with the smelly armpits and his eyes on his hands.

For some reason I got really obsessed with Sgt. Savage in the 90s. Not even a fan of military toys, I think it was the Kubert art.

Nightmare before Xmas toys from Hasbro were 90's and they are some of my faves.
There was an Addams family line from the 90's as well that was pretty cool.
Kenner Swamp Thing.

spawn- the 90s was dominated by mcfarlane toys for me, they hardly seem to make anything anymore which is a real shame but the heyday of monsters and manga spawn etc were good times- and some great figures- such a shame hes decided to concentrate on non posable hockey players and all the decent sci fi stuff seems to get cancelled.

-and i will never forget you cancelled the metal head figure for guitar hero, todd!!!!

I personally loved the Toybiz smaller FF line.. I couldn't believe they were doing characters like Triton, Wizard, Blastaar, Medusa, you name it..

[rche]

wow! Inhumans. I missed that.

[Trappy Trek Freak]

9 inch Star Trek figures and 12 inch Gi Joe for me

[turnbolt]

My favorite line was Playmates Star Trek.

Hmm....Wonder why my comment from yesterday was deleted...

You should probably ask a moderator and not hijack a thread that wasn't even here yesterday. For the record, absolutely no comments by you were edited, deleted or removed by staff here.

My favorite line was Playmates Star Trek.

Yes, I'd say that would be my 2nd favorite.. LOVE all the shuttlecraft vehicles.

My ONLY wish was that their Next Gen 3 3/4" figs like would have had more 'leg' articulation, like the Voyager figures.., so at least they could 'sit' decently, not bow-legged.
