Haha, wow -- I had some of those xenomorphs. The 'Gorilla' one on the right squirts water out of his inner mouth!

 Re: Non- Vinyl American toys
^Awesome photo, funny it has the same two xenomorphs I photographed, but two gorillas! I guess you would need extras with that many boys. A few days ago my mother (who is aware of my still compulsive toy collecting) just now mentioned that I might be interested in the "11 or 12 boxes" of toys she had been storing the attic. I obviously scurried up there immediately and have been going through and being nostalgic about them since. Heres some more: Roseart Swamp Thing Presto Magix (wannabe Colorforms) 1991  Mighty Max 1992

I searched EVERYWHERE for the Mighty Max hand when I was a kid! Finally found that sumbitch at Marcs in the bargain bin

 Re: Non- Vinyl American toys
Mighty Max was something I always wanted, but never seemed to find in stores (or there was always something "better"). Plus, none of my friends had any Mighty Max stuff... But somewhat similar, I had a couple of the Trendmasters micro Godzilla playsets...still have 'em, in fact. They're AWESOME. Especially on weed. http://www.collectiondx.com/toy_review/ ... le_playset

 Re: Non- Vinyl American toys
^Well I would say most toys are especially awesome on weed, but that is a pretty cool set, and it would be neat to have a crossover... Godzilla VS Mighty Max. I remember looking at the Trendmasters Godzilla stuff when it was in stores... but thinking they were boring. I was always more drawn to colorful figures, so a brown Rodan and a "forest green" as I would have called it at the time Godzilla were too simple for my taste compared to all the options of Toy Biz Marvel characters that existed at the time. Of course even now I'm more drawn to rainbow painted GID stuff, though definitely appreciate og styling more than when I was 9.

 Re: Non- Vinyl American toys
True indeed...toys're the main course...the trees are just a complementary side-dish! I totally agree with your take on Trendmasters' Godzilla offerings, Yuck!!! In fact, despite being a huge Godzilla nut, I only ever got ONE Trendmasters toy (besides the micro playsets): the 10-inch rainbowy SpaceGodzilla! Everything else just looked so bland to me...in terms of the inaccurate/Westernized sculpts, as well as the color palettes.

 Re: Non- Vinyl American toys
Just got this little resin piece as a freebie in a package, I'm blown away by the detail for the size of it (about 2/3rds the size of a gargamel micro)

 Re: Non- Vinyl American toys
Is that one of Wilkowski's little resin pieces? If I remember correctly, they're called "Intercontinental Champions", though I can't find any info online to back this up.
They're REALLY cool little figures though! The detail is incredible for the size.
Is it too much to ask, apeboy, to frame a coin beside him to show how small he really is.
Thanks for the Post!

 Re: Non- Vinyl American toys
the heartache of nostalgia... Was about to post this.... anyone remember what these things are... "cool" guys (shades, cool hair cuts, etc) that each had a jewel in their chest that lit up when you cranked their arm? but then I decided to google search "90s toys jewel in chest action figure" and found them haha... Stone Protectors.
