    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.

          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.

            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...

              The blue square marked Mattel is a lifter for a hot wheels single lane ramp. Usually theyre red.
              It's not a doll it's an action figure.

                          I have another one that has stumped me for awhile. It is probably nothing, but just wanted to check to be sure. It is some sort of cardboard lander space pod deal with some stickers that i'm not sure even go to it.

                            That's the cardboard ship that came with the "ET: The Extra-Terrestrial" board game by Parker Brothers.

                              Been going nuts trying to ID these specific action figures I vividly remember from my childhood, I tried many different google searches and failed-

                              Circa 1979, probably. I *think* they were from the GI Joe line, which had gotten kinda sci-fi and weird at this point in time, but at least a few years before they switched over to the tiny little Microman/Micronaut style figures. I thought they were called "The Mutants" or something like that. There were two of them, two variations on the same design as if they were brothers. They sort of looked like ugly neanderthals wearing armor that only covered their torsos, like a wrestling leotard. One had gold armor, the other had silver. Not shiny, dull. One a had a full beard painted on, the other was clean shaven. Both had blank white or silver eyes with no pupils. They were less articulated than classic GI Joe's, their elbows and knees had no joints. Their knees were bent so that they were in a permanent crouch basically.

                              Ring any bells?

                                Definitely sounds like The Intruders...
