I would have loved Thundarr figures.
I'll probably get a lot of hate for this but I don't think Goonies figures would have sold well.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... -
I would have bought Gonnies, but I would have ran a grandma over to get to Monster Squad figures.
Great video, by the way! I really enjoyed that!

I'm kinda torn on the D&D cartoon.
I was big into the fantasy genre and D&D as a kid. I remember getting the D&D pink box for my birthday and playing it with my Mom and sister. So I was pretty psyched for the cartoon. I was expecting a sword and sorcery adventure series with Strongheart and Warduke having epic battles and instead got a show about a group of little kids trying to get home. I was like what the hell!? Now, I don't hate the cartoon or anything and I did watch it. It just wasn't what I expected and a still want a cartoon with the characters from the LJN AD&D toy line.You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing.

There are several, but as Mr. Miller has never been interested, the Mad Max Series certainly remains a top 10 over time. [Those N2-things don't count either.]
Many interesting characters, wild machines, playset possibilities, and playtime mayhem moving across the house, driveway or yard = would have been real fun/could still be fun!

for me, Blade Runner, Buckaroo Banzai and Krull are still figures I hope for.Comment

I basically wanted it both ways with D&D. I was fine with the cartoon having the setup it did (although I loved the episodes that did bring in Strongheart, Kelek, & Warduke; did Elkhorn also appear?), and I also loved the toyline they made. I wanted them also so I could have them join in my fantasy adventures, but I was okay with the idea that the cartoon was sort of one "region" of the franchise and the toys were another. I just wanted them to intersect more. Then again, I was the kid imagining ways these characters could intersect with Dragon's Lair and Gummi Bears (my Saturday morning outlets for high fantasy).Hugh H. Davis
Wanted: Legends of the West (Empire & Excel) and other western historically-based figures. Send me an offer.
Also interested in figures based on literary characters.Comment
