I liked these a lot, they weren't great but they look as though they enjoyed killing whatever enemy they were fighting. <br />Still, to this day that disturbs me about them is when you attached them to the base, the long peg had to be inserted into it's ass.<br />I had a lot of them and some of the swat. I also had the chopper. They all reside in toybox heaven.<br /><br />~UU~<br />useduniverse.blogspot.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26874882.post-49364119744725100312008-03-28T11:13:00.000-04:002008-03-28T11:13:00.000-04:00I wanted that S.W.A.T. van when I was little, I en...I wanted that S.W.A.T. van when I was little, I ended up with the Mego sized one, which was better in my young opinion!chunky Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04910357770955110739noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26874882.post-90550367475689325042008-03-28T10:08:00.000-04:002008-03-28T10:08:00.000-04:00Nice!Nice!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26874882.post-55914375101812294992008-03-28T09:41:00.000-04:002008-03-28T09:41:00.000-04:00Although I had a few figures from this line as a k...Although I had a few figures from this line as a kid, it (like most Mattel figures at the time that weren't Barbie) was a fairly low quality line.<BR/><BR/>A step above solid plastic soldiers, but nowhere near G.I.Joe or Mego as far as play value. They also re-used molds for the S.W.A.T. line.JFStanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15469610652740045118noreply@blogger.com
