I am trying to identify some toys that I used to have, they were little space soldiers that had magnets on their feet. All of their vehicles (rocket ships, tanks, etc) also had magnetic panels and could could connect (i.e. a rocket could pick up a tank.)
Does anyone remember these awesome toys?
Answer
Actually, they were
from the 80's and
resurfaced in the 90's
" STARCOM:
U.S. Space Force "
http://www.toyarchive.com/STAForSale/NEW2001+/Starcom/StarcomIndexPic1a.jpg
Coleco
circa- '86 -'89
" Like many 1980’s toys, the Starcom line was developed
as part of the merchandising for a cartoon. Starcom: The
U.S. Space Force was a syndicated series that depicted the
adventures of an American astronaut brigade as they fought
off attempted invasions by Shadow Force, a nasty collection
of aliens and robots led the nefarious Emperor Dark. The
heroes on the Starcom side included ace pilots John ‘Slim’
Griffin and James ‘Dash’ Derringer.
The coolest thing about the Starcom toy line was its use of
Magna Lock technology.
Basically, what this meant is that the action figures had tiny
magnets implanted in their feet. Not only did this allow them
to stand on the vehicles and playsets without falling off, but it
also activated nifty gizmos in the playsets. For instance, you
placed a figure in the elevator of the Starbase Station, its Lock
magnets would cause the elevator to rise to the top by itself.
On the same playset, if you put a figure in one of cannons,
the Magna Lock magnets would activate a mechanism that
made it turn and fire its rockets. "
