As a kid I know my parents never would have let me have them lol.

Terminator... have all had kid's action figure lines.

Let's not forget that Robocop and Toxic Avenger also had toy lines, and at that time they were on the top end of gore without venturing into grindhouse or Italian zombie flicks.,...not to mention that they had Saturday morning cartoons..lol.
