[YouTube] X-Men 1990's Action Figures


Both the X-Men comic book and animated series were quite popular during the '90s which led to numerous X-Men-branded toys and other products being produced. Some of those included Micro Machines, trading cards, playing cards, yo-yos, Colorforms, board games, video games, and action figures, of course. Toy Biz made the most of its partnership with Marvel that began in 1990, even becoming part of the Marvel empire in a 1993 deal. Throughout the '90s it released a variety of X-Men, X-Force, and some other "X" character action figures and accessories. This is by no means a comprehensive look at what Toy Biz made, just at the X-Men action figures I collected, plus a Bend-Em! To save time I did take group photos for many of them.

X-Men Advertisements

Continuing the X-Men coverage with a post of all ads. Seeing as how the blog began as a game ads project, I decided to put every ad featuring the X-Men I have in one place. Along with video game ads, I've got other product ads, some that also appear on the Vault 1541 Facebook page where I upload various things like food, apparel, and trading card ads. Even if they aren't specifically X-Men ads, I'll include scans of ads with X-Men characters, like Wolverine, too.
