Thing of the Day (4)

Inhumanoids

Inhumanoids was one of the shittest licences of my youth. This was a blatant act of over-merchandising, even from the World View of a then 9 year old boy in 1986.

Made by Hasbro to chiefly stick to the TOY-CARTOON-COMIC formula that they had made a fucking peltload on with Transformers & GI Joe, my memory remembers some big , badly drawn monsters having a bit of a fight, and some lame, dull human characters crying about the destruction. A kind of piss-poor bio-engineered rip-off of Transformers.

The shitty comic took up the back few pages of the weekly UK Transformers magazine, and I longed for the return on Iron Man 2020, Rocket Raccoon or Machine Man compared to that fucking dribble.

Check it out - it deserves it's obscurity!

Gave me a quick flashback of the much better Herculoids, a brainchild of the late great Alex Toth:

They also remind me a little of the "good" action figures from that movie Small Soldiers...forget what they were called & can't be bothered to wiki further.

I don't remember them at all.

But I do remember COMBAT COLIN.

Of course, neither had anything on the DECPITATING SIX MILLION DOLLAR MAN FIGURE!

Was Maskatron™ a robot or a cyborg?

And if you're a cyborg who's head sits atop an artificial body, haven't you kind of already been decapitated?

EDIT: just read the text...And of course, you CAN decapitate a robot. Asked & answered

 

[Shitty Dual]

And I have to say it's a shame whoever built this powerful ultimate robot enemy of the Six Million Dollar Man saw fit to install WEAKNESS in five easy-to-hit locations. A damn shame.

Sucks to be you, Maskatron™!!!

They didn't think too hard over his name, really, did they?

This reminds me of the snowball-fight tactic my older brother used to use: Toss one WAY up in the air over me and, as I stood there looking up at it like a total moron, pick up another one and whip it dead into my fucking mug.
