I think your talking about either Air Raiders by Hasbro or Sky Commanders by Kenner. Sounds more like Sky Commanders.

See above ;).

Sky commanders weren't great toys in the same was MOTU etc were but the playability of some of them was amazing.
Same with M.A.S.K., though they looked super cool.
Now I have to find a bunch of old 80s cartoons, I have about 5 gigs of M.A.S.K. cartoons somewhere and just bought all the voltron go lion based DVDs.

Speaking of cartoons, I always loved Galaxy Rangers. I believe they just came out on DVD. Problem is, Galoob dropped plans to release them...

Of course, the prototypes pretty much sucked... :P

Ha, those were released (or at least some of them) here in Brazil by Glasslite (local toy company).

I had the Captain Zachary figure (and a horse as well). They look like crap now but I loved the toys back then :D

Still hating the joints, but he is the best looking by far. Love the fast pack and the face.

I STILL have all of those Aliens figures. I also have the Space Marines and the Queen Hive Playset. :D
Some of the alien figures are pretty neat designs, but quite honestly, some of them just suck. I guess they couldn't all be winners.

Nice!

He's Fantar from Dragonriders of the Styx.
It came packaged with the most disturbing looking steed I've ever seen.

Reminds me of guts Secret Base figs, etc but I have no idea if they are random or part of some cartoon I don't recognize.

Anyone?

This looks like stuff from the Ben 10 cartoon. Pretty cool. I dig the slime color and would grab a set if I saw it... not particularly keen on driving down to Walmart to get one though.

EDIT: Yes, it is a Ben 10 game set. I am still in touch with children's shows. Go me.

No idea, but here's the description:

"The Ben 10 Alien Creation Time Attack Set is the new Alien Challenge game from the popular Cartoon Network TV show. The Ben 10 Alien Creation Time Attack Challenge takes action-figure creation play to a whole new level. Pull a creation card, start the timer and create your unique alien figure before your time runs out and all your aliens pop up."

Sounds intriguing...
