Back in the day, my brother and I used to disable GI Joe action figures and reassemble them into new characters like they were legos. We even sold a fed. I might still have some...

We did this too. It was a bitch getting the rubber band in their waist line back on.

Yep. I remember this. My friend had a well organized tackle box full of arms and legs just ready to customize.

AL. The beige topped tackle boxes from Sears with craftsman size zero Phillips screwdrivers? Exactly what we did. Wait....

Holy shit we should have all played toys together.

Anybody remember Cops N' Crooks? Like GI Joe but larger, and more detailed. The cartoon was decent too. Buttons McBoomboom's jacket opened up to reveal a fold-out machine gun.

She came with some kind of lab with wires that you could plug into her ear and legs, I guess so she could re-charge :haha:

Also Captain Power was pretty cool. My buddy had the thing that worked with the VHS cassette. In retrospect, I have no idea how they implemented that technology.

Ha! I guess it was actually a beauty salon where she plugged in at. If you zoom you can see she had a picture of Steve Austin. :lol:

My life pretty much went from LEGOs and Star Wars toys to DVDs and CDs with very little transition time

I used to make it attack a toy truck to mimic the Jurassic Park scene
