Lol, it's funny you mention Colorforms because that's what I was planning today as a natural progression...

Spirographs always made me think of the The Dot and the Line...

Gosh, that Kenner one was cool. Such classic stuff. Never knew about the Dot and the Line :?

I just posted My Voltron showcase in My Vintage Action Figure Topic, go check it out from the beginning :)

As usual here is a couple from Me from My showcase.

Here is the Matchbox Voltron commercial :!:



Here is the ones by Panosh Place, I used to have these guys but I have misplaced them with no idea where they had gone to :roll:

Wow, those brought back some memories. I remember having the lions you could put the figures in, and I still remember owning Lotor, but I completely forgot about that skull tank and I totally remember having that as a kid. Hadn't thought of that in decades.

I honestly just bought a Spirograph a couple years back. They're good fun!

Voltron, I regretfully bought the Matty Volton a while back. What a waste that was. When I was a kid, I only owned the red lion and the figure for Hunk and those were hand me downs. I also had an eraser that was Voltron shaped and a mini Voltron figure that did come apart at the arms and legs but didn't transform as it had no articulation points so that was kind of pointless. The Voltron figure I had as probably stood about 3 inches tall at best.

Way before my time but I did pick up an Atari Flashback and even though the graphics are lacking on most of them, I still find some of them pretty playable and fun.
