I think they even made a Saturday morning cartoon about these things.
You're close:
The toyline expanded into a franchise with a comic book series, two direct-to-video animated cartoons, and a video game for the ZX Spectrum, Amstrad CPC, and Commodore 64.
I looked into it more, and it looks like theres also a more recent YouTube channel with a lot of videos (animated and live action) from about 8-9 years ago.
Did the Spectrum and Amstrad have much of a presence in the US, or was the game made for the UK market?
I mean I can say that on MobyGames every listed review (keeping in mind this is user-generated content and could be biased) is from a UK magazine, that they only have the UK box art, and that the listed releases are all from the UK. I'd err on "UK-exclusive" given that circumstantial evidence.
I don't know how to switch accounts and fucked up my wife's entire persona she was building by commenting under her account. Instead of deleting the comments when I realised my mistake, I instead just switched accounts and left those comments there for her to find when she woke up. I claim to have planned to go back to delete them, but instead I was just gonna completely forget about them.
I am so smart 🤓
I had way too many of these.
You could have stopped after collecting all eight.
I've never heard of this game and it's in my Steam library. Must have been bundled somewhere at some point.
Very early on in our relationship - long before she was my wife - I played this game with my wife. I didn't know it was part of a media franchise at the time.
I thought they were awful then, I reacted badly to their existence. And, 40 years later, take efforts to write this comment to express my displeasure; which gives me satisfaction.
40 years too late to drive sales with your disapproval.
Remember Garbage Pail Kids cards? Once I saw concerned parents burning them on the local news, I had to get them.
So trashy. Toys for kids with rat tail haircuts.
I still have my eyeball!
