1983 Galoob A-Team - BA Baracus
Go! Games and Toys
The other day ,my better half and I had the chance to traverse our local mall early In the day.I hate going to malls at peak hours or on the weekends.The crowds are just too damn cool for me.Long story short,our mall now has a toy store! I couldn't believe my eyes.From a far It looked like It was going to be some artsy fartsy place with educational toys ,wooden blocks and model kits,but no!This place had pretty much everything collectors go for nowadays.The name of the store Is "Go!,Toys and Games" and I can honestly say that I've never heard of It before.Everything was a dollar or two extra ,but that's not too bad considering how ridiculously expensive modern toys are In hobby and toy shops these days.I really hope this place sticks around. There Is a nice mix of everything.Marvel Legends,Star Wars to blind bags to Funko figs.On top of that there are tons of board games and books. WTF? Yes! 3 3/4 Marvel Legends!!!!!Not alot thou...
Love that figure. I used a one armed version of him in my animated show, Action Figure Adventures.
ReplyDeleteHe Is a classic Indeed,Buzz.And one of my favs !
DeleteLove him. Used to have him as a kid, I think I still have a broken torso and head in a box somewhere lol.
ReplyDeleteYeah,they're pretty flimsy, the older they get. Mine Is pretty loose and could use an O Ring.
ReplyDeletethat is action figure perfection right there- love the quasi-military flight suit, complete with B.A.Baracus blingy aiguillette cords on the shoulders. I mean, the man was a Special Forces Sergeant. Love, love, love that
ReplyDeleteDitto,Ditto,Ditto !
ReplyDeleteI didn't know they made a GI Joe style A-Team line! Had I been into GI Joe back in the day I would have gone nuts for them! I pity the fool that doesn't love Mr. T.
ReplyDeleteMr.T was the shizz!The plastic used for these figures was subpar and the heads are made out of rubber.But If your lucky,you may find a nice,preserved figure.Mine is loose as heck.
