    Hasbro Charlie's Angels




    I always loved how Hasbro gave the Angels a van and matching uniforms, they looked like some sort of sexy girl group.

    Hmmm, a sexy girl group all clad in spandex who drive around in a van and solve mysteries? I've got a pilot script to write. Should take me three hours, tops.

    I love the dolls, the van, not so much. It's too pink. I think they should have released Kris and Jill's car, the Cobra II. That would have been great for re-enacting chase scenes.

      I love how they still feature Ms. Fawcett-Majors in the ad (in the passenger seat of the van), even though she's not actually for sale with the other three. Given Farrah's huge popularity at the time, I was always surprised that they immediately dropped her from the toy line when she left the show. I wonder if it was a contractual issue of some sort due to her early departure.

      And, I assume that is an "evil imposter" Sabrina driving the van since she surely can't be in two places at once. Mirror universe? Fembot? Lisa Galloway? Oh, the crossover possibilities!! LOL!!!

        Nice! I was a huge Charlie's Angels fan and i don't know if you realize it or not, but Farrah was MY girlfriend back in the 70's . I was finally able to put together this set along with the van. I just need to get a redf scarf for Kelly.

        EDIT: Oh, and the van accessories are GI Joe LOL.

          Although I wouldn't have been caught dead with them back then, I have them (except for Kris) now and love them.

            I think just about every figure line had a van in the 70's. It was just in the "in" vehicle to have back then.
