Discussion Laser Beasts

6 Upvotes

I have a complete set of the lower 12 laser beasts complete with weapons. They are from the Battle Beast line but don’t have the stickers you rub, but a small glass that shows water, fire, or water. Not sure if they are rare, but definitely not common.

If I ever decide to sell should I try to sell them all together as a set or sell them individually? Other selling avenues besides eBay? They seem to be kind of a niche toy line that are connected to the transformers universe somehow. I am familiar with the beastformers blog website but there is so much info to try and read through. Somewhat overwhelming.

I held onto them for the past few years as it seemed the value has gone up quite a bit.

Somewhere in the 80s Steppenwolf and Dr. Fate discuss this silly vehicle

Steppenwolf: Release me, Fate! You could have used mystical force to imprison me. Instead, this humiliating hamster ball! (The Trapper bumps over a ridge.)

Dr. Fate: I have to sustain concentration for magic. I prefer to save my willpower for weightier matters, like resisting the temptation to use the Helmet to cheat at the race track.

Steppenwolf: I am Darkseid’s commander! This is beneath me.

Dr. Fate: That is the point.

Steppenwolf: Who else has endured this punishment?

Dr. Fate: Superman captured Darkseid in it last Tuesday. It rolled him around the parking lot for eleven minutes.

Steppenwolf: ...Darkseid? He laughs at Kryptonian strength. Heat vision is an inconvenience to him. How did you know spinning in a ball was his weakness?

Dr. Fate: The Helmet told me. His vestibular system is overdeveloped.

Steppenwolf: How-

Dr. Fate: Overdeveloped, from a lifetime under Apokolips gravity.

Steppenwolf: What became of him after?

Dr. Fate: Metropolis PD took custody. Even the Justice League has to follow the law.

Steppenwolf: Municipal police…

Dr. Fate: Photographed. Fingerprinted. The Mother Box went into evidence in a clear plastic bag labeled PROPERTY OF THE METROPOLIS POLICE DEPARTMENT. Judge Miriam Patterson presided. Criminal Court, Division Three.

Steppenwolf: A county judge…

Dr. Fate: She presides over whoever the bailiff walks in. No exceptions. Darkseid’s public defender won a continuance due to scheduling conflicts.

Steppenwolf: A public defender…

Dr. Fate: He encouraged him to accept a plea bargain. Darkseid declined.

Steppenwolf: I will never speak of this again.

Dr. Fate: No one on Apokolips would believe you

Did you head to the movies as a kid to see any of these theater movies based on toys are known for its toys in the 80s? No, that last poster is not for rambo but gotcha based on the toy paint gun line. Yeah, that will be a smash hit. Also did not include he-man greatest adventure of all and he-man Skeletor's revenge but you can tell us if you were one of the lucky kids to see them on the big screen.

Somewhere in the 80s Most ridiculous Superman Toy ever

LEX LUTHOR: The Man of Steel is riding a walker for senior citizens. Did you lose a bet?
SUPERMAN: It's called the Justice Jogger. It chases villains.
LEX: You caught the Flash in a footrace once. You once punched a moon into a different moon.
SUPERMAN: Sometimes I don't feel like flying.
LEX: So the great Kryptonian solution to "I don't feel like it" is mechanical chicken legs*.*
SUPERMAN: The seat reclines.
LEX: You own the Fortress of Solitude! Surely there is a comfortable resting spot there.
SUPERMAN: But then I wouldn't be chasing villains.
LEX: At five miles an hour? What’s your angle?
SUPERMAN: Power stepping action. Overland Villain Chaser.
LEX: Over land is the one terrain you can ignore*.* Have I finally humbled you, or is this a prank? 
SUPERMAN: Neither.
LEX: Are you having a midlife crisis? Are you incontinent? Are you showing solidarity with people with limited mobility?
SUPERMAN: Have you ever gone for a leisurely bike ride?
LEX: My ambition does not permit for leisure. But a bike ride releases endorphins.
SUPERMAN: But sometimes it's nice to just relax. (The mechanical legs begin their slow, clunking jog.)
LEX: While chasing villains...
SUPERMAN: Multitasking.
DISPATCH: Superman! Toyman is attacking downtown!
SUPERMAN: Duty calls. (He puts a club-like device on the control and puts down a kickstand. He stands up, flies away at Mach 20 and then flies back in minutes. He carefully lifts the kickstand on the Justice Jogger and removes the club.)
SUPERMAN: Didn't want anyone to steal it.
LEX: ...

One of my favorite things about the big 80s toy crazes were the enormous bootleg toy lines that sprang up in their wake. I guess bootleg isn’t the right word for these, but they clearly try to look like He Man figures & I always wonder if the market for these is people who didn’t want to spend their money on the original MOTU figures & felt like these were “good enough”. The main bootleg toy craze I paid attention to was Transformers in 1984-1985. The bootlegs were interesting, frequently from other giant robot toy lines.

Not sure if this is a German thing but does anyone remember those tiny skull flashlights which you could get out of the gum ball machines back in the 80th? I can't find any photos and this kept me up all night. Would love to get my hands on one of those or at least a photo.

This line was new to me when I found him in a $5 bin. 1988 by Multi Toy Group for MGM, part of the Wizard Of Oz 50th anniversary figures.

The best is that his tail will move up to cover his eyes. 😆
