    I had a jeep that changed colours from army green to bright yellow. Also an old school caddy that went from purple to pink. All metal; great toys

      I had a couple with spring loaded “crash damage”, one on the side and one on the rear. When it got hit hard enough, the panel would flip around and the car would be “dented”.

      Was awesome.

        Awww man you just unlocked a memory of mine. I had several of those.

        Also, like the other person who replied to you, I had He-Man toys that did that. I’m like 90% sure it was Skeletor and He-Man.

          I had “Thunder Punch” He-man who had a little backpack that took the circle 6-shot caps. You twisted his torso & got a BANG! with the punch.

          The 80’s were a time

      They still make them. Still metal too. My 3 year old has a few and loves them. I have some old ones and they still work, albeit not as fast as they used to.
