The Incredible Dr Steel Commercial

[Hedji]

My brother had Big Jim and Dr. Steel. Love this toy! I was always amazed by the breaking pipe accessory. Tremendous play value with these.

My brother Mark still talks about the day Mom said "clean your room or I'll throw it all away".....he didn't and she took his Dr Steel who's head was detached and threw it away.

He could've just glued it back on, but he was gone! He still teases Mom or the devastating experience.

Dr Steel will always be one of my all time favorite toys.

Oh man, yes I distinctly remember that commercial too, especially the line about the "strange tattoo", thanks for posting it! I wanted Dr Steel as soon as I first saw the commercial, and luckily my mom was ok with me getting him. The KISS dolls were fine with my parents too, thank god, or it would have killed me not getting them. The Kenner Alien on the other hand, was where the line was finally drawn. Great discovery with the commercial Brian!

This toy, the one with a cape and rotating face as well as the Vette type vehicle with hideaway lasers or guns was top of my list. This toy line was very hot back then and I do plan on obtaining them again to add to my collection :
