Back in the day, I owned two

Back in the day, I owned two of these guys. I don't know why but I had a real soft spot for this figure, even though both of the ones I owned had the same fault. The upper torso would not sit straight with the lower half of the body. I had tried to correct this by twisting the metal hook inside the torso (that holds the o-ring) but the damn thing broke. The incident scarred me for life!

Good call on the Bioroid

Good call on the Bioroid Termintor, Mod. Your right about the varying degrees of quality/ coolness with this line. I personally always favored the Dana Sterling figure, and the Invid shock Trooper's greatness cannot be denied.

This is one of the few

This is one of the few Matchbox Robotech figures I had as a kid, and I loved it. I always had him sit in my battlepod though.... Great Toy!

Yup...this figure was one of

Yup...this figure was one of the best released by Matchbox for the Robotech line. I just wish they could've figured something out to do with the butt skirt to make it so he could sit down...

Good Times

Yep, I recently was going through all my old toys in my parents attic and stumbled upon my box of Robotech Matchbox toys. This figure was one of my faves too. Found his hovercraft to fly him around on too! 2 Invid Shocktroops, the Invid scout, the Battlepod and 2 old Cyclones plus about 8 or so figues. Man, some of these were made soooo cheaply, makes me wonder how they are still actually all in one piece after 20 some odd years in a hot Texas attic!
