When I was little I remember there were these toys they made that for the faces they used holograms. There were several of these sort of midget ones that all had cloaks around them. And then some taller ones too. They were really cool toys. One tall one I had had a snake like outfit on with a snake face. Then another was a skeleton guy. I think they even had swords and shields and the shields also had a hologram on them.

Does that ring a bell with anyone? I really want to find out what they were called.
 
As usual, LOAF is the 80s toy/cartoon expert. Those are slightly familiar, but I'm not sure I ever saw those.
 
That's excellent. And you can buy them too! I remember putting mine in the water and the holograms got all screwed up. "Release their hologram powers!" That's priceless.

My Lady Jaye's abdominal rubberband looks like it's about to break

There was nothing more saddening then when a G.I. Joe's rubber band broke. Because the one's whose bands wore out and broke were the ones you played with the most, thus obtsensibly the ones you liked the most.
 
I had a few Supernaturals - including a really awesome coffin thing that would flip around to show a really disturbing "portal to hell" hologram.

I glued a few of my broken joes back together, but it limited their movement. You could only move their legs at the knees.

That explains a great many things.... :eek:
 
I must add its also the name of a Z-Grade horror movie with LeVar Burton and Nichelle Nichols that I have very fond memories of. It was really, really bad but when it's 2 in the morning, it's really, really good.

Take note: Writer Joel Soisson is one of the major producers at Dimension Films now-a-days.

Super naturals also just sounds like a porn site with extremely large-breasted women.

People like you are the reason we lost Sirius.

I tried occasionally, but it just wasn't the same. Most of the ones who got broke ended up being used as token corpses in my GI Joe battles.
 
I had one of these guys! He was all blue and stuff, then I shot him with my bebe gun at close range and broke him. He was a really good target though.
