Welcome to the Ark.

That's Tongo from the Blackstar cartoon of the early 80's. I loved that 'toon as a child, and imo it was the superior precursor to Heman.

The version pictured does not feature the light-up chest emblem. I don't remember whether the original versions had that gimmick, or if it was introduced later. In any event, there was a dial on the back of the figures that activated a flint in the chest that created actual sparks that illuminated the clear plastic chest-piece. Lol 80s toys with dangerous features...life was good!

Galoob made them and you can find them easily on eBay by searching "Galoob Blackstar toys". There's a Tongo there (just checked) that matches exactly that photo which could be yours (again lol) for $15...good luck reclaiming your childhood.
