Cylon: Battlestar Galactica Figure: Star Wars Play!!

This is the Cylon action figure from the Battlestar Galactica line of figures, released in 1978 or 1979 by Mattel.

That information is more than I knew about this figure when I got one as a kid....

Robot looking figure with a rifle that had a bayonet on the end of it....
Some Bad guy from a show that starred Lorne Green......

NAAAA.....

This had to be the leader of the Stormtroopers! The only other figure that had Vader's respect and would carry out the orders given to him. This was the second in command of the Empire! The Glorious ULTIMATE STORMTROOPER!!!!

Yep. To this day I have never seen Battlestar Galactica and have no idea what a Cylon really is. I even typed Cyclon a bunch of times and took em out in edit. This was a cool looking, bad guy that could be used in Star Wars play and that's where he got his fame. I even had Starbuck and Lorne Green's figure and they became Rebel extras. This guy became more. He became part of Star Wars. He went further.......

I know I'm not the only one. YOU did it too. Admit it. They should just package this figure in a Star Wars card and put it out cause every would go.......yeah, that's what I did with mine.

and you did too.

The Micronauts !!! A toy that I had very few of...

Yes, that's right. For some strange reason I never got into the Micronauts. I had a Time Traveler and an Acroyear. I believe I wanted more but my parents probably passed em over for GI Joe, Star wars and a host of others. This is the only one I have currently.

I got him just a few months ago for display thinkin I should have one.

Cool looking but has a green arm for some reason.....

I'm thinkin he's a Time Traveler but I'm not well versed in these guys.

I remember wanting these guys and thinking they were cool but never got many. The Time Traveler, a red one, broke and ended up in the trash. The Acroyear I got at a flea market. The figure went to the side but that Knife was pretty cool!! I used that alot!

Well....if anyone reading this can give some input into this guy I'd appreciate it! I got him on display but don't know much about em.....

MILLENNIUM LEE !! The Dukes will be FLYIN around HAZZARD in this baby!!!

Reis over at thedorkhorde has to get one of these in his General Lee collection!!

Swiped Millenium Lee off Pinterest and had to share it!!

Them Dang Duke boys and thier Wrist Racer General Lee!!!

In 1979, Knickerbocker made the awesome Dukes of Hazzard General Lee wind up Wrist Racer Watch!!!

This is a relic of toys past, what a cool car!!

For a little wind up it is very detailed !!

This is the one I had as a child and it still flies!!

This little gem was actually a wrist watch that had a little ramp that you could slide out, then wind up the car and YEEEHAAAWWW!!!! Fly out on the road!! I wish I still had my wrist watch part, but the General is still tickin!! I remember winding it up and doin wheelies across the kitchen table and it still goes like ever!! Like them Dukes....you cant keep a good ol' toy down!! YEEEHAAAAAWWWW!!!

The HOBBIT movie news !! Dwarves in Barrels picture!!!

THE HOBBIT MOVIE WILL BE EPIC!!! DWARVES IN BARRELS!!! AAAAHHHHH!!!!!!

Here's a pic posted at firstshowing.net -click the link for the full story- I had to share this!!

Apparently they posted it from EntertainmentWeekly.com but I saw it there! I cannot state how excited I am to see this movie. Peter Jackson will make this movie all it should be and more! Wait til there is a picture of Smaug!!!

I CANNOT WAIT FOR THIS MOVIE!!!!!

the Simpsons Prison Sideshow Bob and the unfortunately placed RAKE !!!

Sideshow BOB!!!!! I've always loved this character and Kelsey Grammer is PERFECT for the voice of the evil, yet sophisticated Simpson's Villain. I had to get him from the Playmates line, series 9 has him in his prison uniform but also includes his unfortunate nemesis......

THE RAKE!!!!!!

Playmates did such a great job with the sculpts on this line, thats a perfect likeness.

I like this line alot but Bob's figure is awesome! I mean who doesn't like the villain that's into opera?? As I researched some facts for this post I came across a Sideshow Bob 20th anniversary figure singing H.M.S. Pinafore - one of my favorite operas - from the episode Cape Feare!! That will be posted soon after I get ahold of one :)

GI Joe's Chuckles, GI Joe's Undercover Spy but why all the Hate???

In 1987, GI Joe produced Chuckles. He's been associated with really cool storylines in comics and has a really cool looking figure. But he's the one guy that I keep reading and hearing people bash...so, why all the hate??

OK, he does look like a soldier on leave, but at least he looks like a soldier...have you seen an Alley Viper? Neon is not much for camoflage.....

Dude, a sidearm and a HOLSTER!!!! That ups the cool factor by 100!!

A GI Joe version of James Bond !!

Back from a previous post, he takes Bullhorn's sniper rifle for his own missions!!

"How do you like me now?"
