to avoid further cluttering the thread with my posts I'll condense this next example as much as possible. considering the movie doesnt get much buzz any more and hasnt seen any kind of merchandising in twenty years I'd say it counts.
>Mattel's Robots
Based off the bluesky film of the same name, I have to applaud Mattel's efforts here. They really gave this line 110 percent. You could collect the entire cast in the 3" modular "mix and match" collection, swap their parts, or feed them to these guys and watch as the choppers rended them to bits. But there were larger scaled figures too. A shortlived 6 inch series that rendered Rodney and Fender in a mix of plastic and diecast. Impressive figures although unfortunately very fragile, the hips on Rodney were very prone to snapping and Fender's hands were easily lost. I think there were some plush dolls and a 12 inch armored up rodney which released alongside a round of burger king premiums and kellogs pack-in pull back racers. It was a fun time. What I wouldnt give for this franchise to have become the cash cow Ice Age did.
