Ойын-сауық
Following on from our Top 10Best Action Figure Playsets video these are the Top 10 Best Action Figure Vehicles.
Hundreds of vehicles were nominated by you on Twitter and Reddit and Patreon but here are the 10 that got the most votes.
Vintage Star Wars was strong as was Vintage GI Joe and M.A.S.K. but there were certainly some surprises like the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Party Van and The Real Ghostbusters Ecto 1.

The vintage Kenner AT-AT was one of my absolute favorite toys ever!! My mom purchased it for me for Christmas of '81 and I can't begin to express how mind blowing that was!! I will never, ever forget that Christmas. Great, great times. Thanks, mom!!! 😀

I'm a huge GIJoe fan and I love the Flagg, but quite honestly it doesn't have the play value of most other sets. You can play on it, but not with it. You can't realistically move it around and it doesn't really do that much. Again, it's what you do on it. I prefer sleep myself, but that's just me.
It's videos like this that make me glad I'm not a huge Star Wars fan. I'd be broke. I mean, I'm already broke (too many Transformers toys), but I'd be even more broke.

Although I loved the show, I never did have any MASK toys- that, and The Real Ghostbusters- were the ones that got away. The Skystriker still has to be one of my favorites. I got that one for my 6th birthday and still remember the awe on my face and all of my friends. Keep up the great work 👍

In real life the ambulance variant was turned into the Ecto-1, but in the movie world Ray bought a hearse model for conversion. And if your brain has difficulty with the fact there's a gurney in the back they use to hold their packs, you'll be happy to know that smaller towns would actually use combo versions so that the same car could be used for medical emergencies and funerals. Though I imagine a hearse pulling up to get you after an accident would be a terrifying sight :D

@@StormAlterWorlds totally misspoke, my bad... in real life two cars were used to represent the Ecto-1: an ambulance for the modded Ecto, and a hearse for the pre-mod Ecto. For continuity, the hearse was dressed as a hearse/ambulance, so yes, in-universe it's a combo wagon.

I think the hatred of Transformers movies is truly exaggerated. I would argue that four of the six rate anywhere from decent to quite good. Two of those movies were admittedly god awful. However, I actually feel that the Transformers concept was much easier to make into a movie than MASK stands to be. As Dan pointed out in this video, that car (which was the centrepiece of the show) just ain’t gonna fly.... literally or figuratively.
Yes! I knew that the Falcon had to be on the list. I'm a proud owner of the X-wing and Falcon.
Star Wars vehicles will always be my favorite. From the AT-AT to X-Wing fighters. Vintage or current. I love the designs and f/x sounds.
Great list Dan! I think I had about 7 or 8 of these, Lol. Those toy commercials back then were epic! Good times.
The Space:1999 Eagle 1 Spaceship by Mattel Toy Co. was amazing! Can't believe it didn't make this list.

I had the vintage AT-AT, it was amazing o.o of course I took the pilot figure to school, promptly had it stolen and tossed into a field :( ... That was a cool figure...
One of the best top 10 videos - loved it!
I'm shocked but delighted that the Turtle Party Wagon was no. 2 on this list. It's quite an honor that the one toy I played with until the door literally fell off was placed so high. I loved that thing, and the one day I came home from school to find it was nowhere in my room is a day I'll always remember. I would argue that the Mutant Module released in 1990 was the more superior vehicle though. A tank with a big drill on the front, and more guns than a small armory, with room for your favorite Foot baddies. That baby had it all. Nothing could beat the simplicity of that van though. a troop transport disguised as a VW party bus. This gives me the giggles thinking about it.
Great video. Two of my favorite vehicle toys as a kid would be the sea duck from tale spin and the motorcycles from biker mice from mars. Probably odd choices lol.

Good to see mentions of the 2000's/Early 2010 Legacy Collection vehicles. I'm not part of the generations who had Kenner Star Wars, MASK, Real GhostBusters, Thtundercats and all that, hell I've never even seen a GI Joe in person, so seeing the stuff that was fucking awesome in my youth get noted was pretty great
I love this channel!
I was kind of expecting there be at least one TMNT vehicle on the list, since the TMNT action figures were definitely a huge part of my childhood for sure. :D
Nice list. Some great toys there.
Wow! Great stuff! Imagine if the Skystriker was made to scale for the original foot tall GI Joe! I'm a 60's/70's kid and had plenty of those Joes; the basic infantryman, sailor, astronaut, GI Joe with lifelike hair. Had the jeep and Mercury space capsule, both made to scale for those foot tall Joes! Good times!
The 1979 Falcon is my all time favorite action figure vehicle. I restored mine from my childhood, and it was no easy feat to find all the parts I needed. That Jedi training ball was probably the easiest part to lose so it was the hardest one to find as well as the one that cost the most. That At At is the one I always wanted but never got.

Still have my trench run 2011 xwings (red 5 and red leader!) a potf2 falcon, and the Holy grail... The BMF. sadly no AT-AT in my collection but I'm not dead yet ;) Oh and I have a 25th anniv. Skystriker rattler and x30 conquest... another great vid from one of my favorite subscriptions. BRING BACK MASK!!!!
I had the Thunderhawk and the Ecto-1, as a kid, and loved them to pieces... And I was always fairly certain that the gull-wing doors of the DeLorean from Back to the Future, also contributed to my digging Thunderhawk. I remember one year, getting two Thunderhawks back to back, for my birthday. And inadvertently embarrassing my grandmother, as I walked up to the aunt that had given me the second one, and dismissively told her, ‘I have this already’. Fast forward 35-ish years, and I wish I still had one!
The G.I. Joe Hovercraft and Star Wars AT-AT Walker are two of my favorite toys from my childhood.
Yeah, the Star Wars toy vehicles rock! My favorite one is The Vintage Collection X-Wing. It has a high level of detail, an opening cockpit, a socket for the Astromech Droid, retractable landing gear, a small storage compartment, a spring-loaded torpedo, and, most importantly, the ability to open up the wings in the iconic X-shaped position. Strangely enough, that toy was actually representing Biggs's Red Three instead of Luke's Red Five. Maybe, that's because it was likely designed to work with Biggs Darklighter action figure from The Black Series, which was sold at the time. My second favorite is Hasbro's take on the Jedi Starfighter from 2002. It pretty much resembles Obi-Wan's Jedi Starfighter from Attack of the Clones well enough, and has retractable landing gear, opening cockpit, as well as built-in R4 unit. But, most importantly, the Jedi Starfighter toy has an attack mode, which didn't appear in the movie, but, actually, was one of the main inspirations for the Jedi Interceptors from Revenge of the Sith. EDIT: I forgot to mention, but I also like Hasbro's MTT from 2012, when The Phantom Menace was re-released in 3D. The MTT had a battery-operated troop deployment function with the actual sounds from the movie. The toy also came packaged with Obi-Wan action figure, and a whole army of sixteen "battle-posed" Battle Droid figurines, which, unfortunately, had only two points of articulation and barely any paint job, likely for budget reasons. But, at least, Obi-Wan figure was decent, in my opinion.
Wow. I had/have 4 of these. The AT-AT was the very first Star Wars toy i ever owned (got it for Christmas the year after ESB came out). I also had the original Ecto 1, the Thunder Tank, and the GI Joe Hovercraft (first GI Joe toy i ever owned). Unfortunately I only still have the Ecto 1, which i have passed on to my son.
Great vehicle video. Thank you. I miss the technodrome.
I had the Thundercat's Thundertank and it was glorious! Cobra Commander and Starscream where very very confused and impressed (at least in my mind).
Great video-- everything deserved its slot. I've got to chime in with two favorites: Skeletor's Landshark, which was the coolest vehicle I've ever played with and could gnaw through an infantry line without even slowing down. The Ninja Turtles Cheapskate, which was small, well themed, inexpensive, and had a fun action feature. A suburban kid could affordably outfit all four Turtles with one (I had two myself.)

I was spoiled enough to have both the Millenium Falcon and the Imperial Walker. The AT-AT made many treks across the terrain of my familiy’s front and back yards, while The Millennium Falcon landed on various platforms of jungle gyms which I always imagined as being immense space ports. Good Times!🤩🤩🤩
I loved the Echo-1, I think it’s still in my parents’ house somewhere.
I always loved the Silver Hawks Miraj space ship. I remember playing for HOURS with it and being awestruck by how huge it seemed to me at the time. (nose of the ship came out like a single pod)
Hey I loved the Whale's little motorcycle! You could stash it in anything. :)
I got the 2008 falcon when it was brand new on sale at toys r us. It sat in the corner of my living room for a month till my birthday
The B:TAS Batmobile was hands down the best one. Sleek, minimal design, and the Batwing popped out of the back. It was a masterpiece.

Glad to see TMNT get some representation on the list. As cool as the turtle van is and how iconic it is in the line I would have picked something later in the line with more wackiness and cooler action features.
