Kudos to whoever mentioned Crystar figures. Looking at a Crystar figure site, I think we had every single one, although they were just strewn about in our football-shaped toy chest so I never really knew what they were.

Not sure if they were from the 80's, but I do recall having a shitload of the "GERMS" test tube figures. And almost every figure/playset for the "other" Ghostbusters show (incl. Tracy the gorilla, the yellow skeleton, the 'Sir Lancelot' type guy, etc). I don't know if they are considered "forgotten" or "relics", but the M.A.S.K. toys were pretty cool.

To answer someone's question, Army Ants didn't really do anything (although they did have rubber asses that you could pull off).

Here's something I've been trying to remember for the longest time. There used to be these figures you could buy that were made of something like rubbery play-doh. You could kind of stretch them out and rip their limbs off, and stick them back on (or atleast try to). They had a funny smell too, similar to play-doh or something. I remember having one man that was all dark green, and some other creature (a bird or pterodactyl?) that was all dark red. This was likely from 1981 - 1982. Anyone remember these???

p.s. there's two TOMY wind-up toys I'm also trying to identify in a separate thread. One is a walking blue camera with a magnifying glass; the other is a walking set of red binoculars wearing blue glasses. I seem to recall them from a movie or tv show. If you have any idea what these are from, please reply in the other thread!! It's driving me insane!!
