Taking a break from building tonight. Man, that mid-90s anime aesthetic is tough to beat. ❤️

I guess technically his name is "D. Compose" but I love that he just screams it over and over while rotting the flesh from living humans, real nasty stuff for the kiddies

I was so excited about this, but the price point makes me EXTREMELY hesitant.

Keep this going by sharing pics of something fun and vintage from your toy collection!

Inhumanoids are so, SO awesome. I really wish they would get a modern update.

Did you know Inhumanoids are the same scale (& set in the same universe) as GI Joe? The Earth Corps environmental suits are powered armour & within they are Joe-scale. Not sure why Hasbro didn’t make more of this especially as it makes the big 3 Inhumanoids even more impressive #vintagetoytuesday

The Inhumanoids toys Metlar, Herc Armstrong and a Granite and Redwood chill out with two random GI Joes to show off their sizes

The Joes are startled by their new companions but fear not, they’re friendly! (Yes, even the Granite and Redwood)

Herc takes his helmet off to show that underneath his giant Environmental Suit he has the same sized noggin as the Joes (not being funny but you can tell that Herc is a scientist and the Joes are soldier boys)

This guy however is NOT friendly - Metlar captures a flesh slug! I think Inhumanoids should have had a plain human size class to both make the line more accessible with an entry-level price point and make the kaiju-sized Inhumanoids more impressive

#TransformersTuesday & #vintagetoytuesday ???

G1 Jumpstarters: Topspin (never had him until now but do remember a friend has the guy with dual drills?). Just need to get some stickers.

The rest will find good geeky homes.
