Ya'know...old weird or kinda out there stuff thats only even been heard of by a select few? Lets hear it!

Ive currently collected every "Robin Hood: Prince of Theives" toy (by Kenner) they made includeing the Sherwood Forest playset (which was just a re-do of the old StarWars Ewok Village playset). I love how the cards look for this line with their very large portraits of the actors themselves being prominent. The Azeem/Morgan Freeman one is my favorite as he is such a wonderful actor. Anyone know where I can get some clear cases to display these in?

Im thinking about getting a few Earthworm Jim figures currently. EDIT: Oh and the "Total Chaos" line by McFarlane is probly one of the most under-rated lines of all time. It kicks monkey ass!

They aren't really toys, but I like those big headed marvel character you get from the dollar/two dollar machine.

I had a bunch of those pink Muscle Things which were the precursors. That was a hell of a show too! Kevin Mask FTW.

I almost pulled the trigger on some Inhumanoids awhile back, but you really need to score the big 3 all at once if you're me.

Did you have the ring?

The potato guy was awesome because he fit snuggly into the claw on the ring.

Oh yeah man. They were awesome wernt they? Very expensive now too. The show too was very underrated , and quite mature imo for its day. As for the toys , when they first came out I had many of them like Marsala's Walking...thing, Takagi's Jet, like 6 Neolords, ect.

I really want to get into Exo Squad as I never had any when I was young, but i'm only interested in the Neosapiens and Marsalla.

Again, not really toys, but I liked to collect Warhammer 40k back in the day. Whenever my action figure fever dies down, I will probably start collecting Fantasy Warhammer.

I too used to collect Warhammer 40k back when I was a teenager. I was big into Blood Angels and Chaos, and had a pretty good Tyranid army too. Sadly, the hobby became too expensive for me to keep up, and I had to give it up. But I had a lot of fun with them at the time... the painting was my favorite part.

I have some biker mice from mars figures, napolian dynamite, scarface, wouldn't mind getting some reboot figures someday, also mcfarlane music figures are great, the old ones like jim morrision and janis joplin are great but pricey, I do like finding awesome looking vinyl toys online, mostly it's admiring from afar as they're limited pieces of art which aren't cheap.

That was a nice line - liked the guards of the Sheriff too.

The Waterworld line was nice, another Kevin Costner film.

Not one mention of the most awesome toy concept ever put to market?
DINO RIDERS WORLD

The really sucky thing about Dino-Riders is that, of ALL COMPANIES, fucking MATTEL has some hold on the rights due to their purchase of Tyco toys 20 some years ago.
Pretty well means it will NEVER got a revisist...

But if I had the money, I'd try and get some (sold mine years ago), especially the T-Rex. Had a healthy collection (even had the infamous Brontosaurus!) but never had the Rulon's flagship dino

Oh man, what a bad ass line that was... Though I only remember owning the T-Rex, and that thing was freakin' HUGE! I think I collected a few of the little figures that rode the dinosaurs, but the Rex was my pride and joy!

Imaginext new Dinosaur line is Dino Riders 2.0.

I have most the 20mm autocannon parts for the Rambo line as well as Snakebite's knife,strap, and backpack part.

Got them when i was younger but not into them, would love to get them into someone elses collection that would love these obscure thing.

Barnyard Commandos would be my pick.

I don't know if this counts as "obscure" but I nabbed the Trend Master's Battlestar Galactica Colonial Viper and Cylon Raider off of Ebay over a decade ago. Those were interesting ships with lights and sound and came with figures that weren't too bad looking.

I also have some of the Kenner Aliens figures and vehicles along with some Aliens vs. Predator figures in storage. I'm thinking about selling of all of those Aliens and AvP items as I really don't have much interest in them.

I remember as a kid, I was into the Terminator 2 action figures for a time... I had about three or four different Arnie's (Including the one with the switchable arms) two T-1000's (One had this silly little cannon gimmick) and I'm sure I had some sort of vehicle for it as well... I can never remember what happened to them!

Oh, and i dunno if any of the American's here had them, but I was HUGE into Crash Dummies for a long time! Those guys were crazy, and all the different vehicles were sweet! But after a few months of bashing them around they didn't want to be put back together anymore! ^^;
