HELP!--c. 1982 Kenner bug robo-vehicles?

There was a line around 1982, I think from Kenner, that consisted of bugs that were robot fighting vehicles.

HELP!--c. 1982 Kenner bug robo-vehicles?

There was a line around 1982, I think from Kenner, that consisted of bugs that were robot fighting vehicles. Each featured a cockpit that included a small, glued-in driver. The set consisted of:

*red & orange Scorpion, with articulated tail that ended in a chained "wrecking ball" blue mace. ( I still have this one somewhere.)

*purple & green Dragonfly with poseable translucent wings, abdomen rocket, & grapple mouth. You rotated the eyes to winch the grapple.

*charcoal & yellow Spider, battery-operated to crawl across the floor. It was larger than the others & had other action features I can't recall.

I would love to re-collect these, but I can't remember what they were called--I suppose they are uncommon.

I have one of those small He-man figures in my "what the hell is this drawer"

That brown crate lid with the ropes is from 3 3/4 GI Joe...that blue obelisk looking thing is from a board game...can't remember the name of it though...sorry

[Shanester]

Any idea about these parts? I hate to just toss them...





Thanks for the input.

The blue frame looking thing says Mattel, so I assume it may go to Hot Wheels.

So I got this octopus for a custom and before I chop it up, I just wanted to make sure it wasn't part of some classic toy line...any help would be most appreciated! The only markings are "made in china" and a crown with the letters "GC" inside of it. The Joe is in there for scale...

Those octopi were sold loose tagged in bins. I have several, one I bought at seaworld.

So this weekend I got a tub full of 80's Gi Joe vehicles...I can figure out almost everything, but there are a few anomolies.......any one have a clue as to what any of this stuff is (except the Joe, he's there for scale)? Thanks in advance!




Oh, and BTW, if you are looking for any Joe vehicle parts, lemme know what you need.....I have a ton of it now.

dime-store discount is right. They were called "Galaxy Riders" and had little knock-off He-Man's riding them.

---^ It sure sounds like a Star Wars character.
I couldn't find any matching that description either...

Anybody have any clue about this little doo-dad I just got? It's a little bike with a Seahorse on it. It's in an upright position, you **** the wheel down and ZOOOM it takes off at lightning speed. It looks like 80s or early 90s from the wear. The quality of plastic and decals remind me of M.A.S.K. (which it's obviously not).
I thought it'd be easy to find the line, but have had no luck. So maybe a dime-store discount type toy?
It says SL or SC U.K. Design, no date.

YOU RULE DEN!!!! It always amazes me at how you guys can figure out these odd toys I run across. In this case. I've been searching for an answer for this one for almost a year!!!

That's Mad Scientist (Dissect an Alien):

Mad Scientist (Dissect-An-Alien)By Mattel. New In Box | eBay

I had that when I was little and a few other Mad Scientist things.

Hey all.
Again I post another wazzits. Markings read "1986 Mattel Mexico". The "Guts" displayed infront of the figure were found inside it. Each gut has a number etched on it. So is this a game or an action figure that has nothing to do with the guts displayed???
