Does anyone remember the name of those toy monsters that were out mid 80's? There was three of them I think. Each was about a foot tall. I remember that one had a rib cage that opened up. That's really about all that I remember about them and the fact that my parents couldn't afford them. One of my friends said they were the Inhumanoids but I can't seem to find a Inhumanoid with a ribcage that opens up.
Also does anyone remember those toys that would glide across rooms on bright orange zip lines? They were little action figure men with futuristic looking gliders.
Possibly my most favorite toys were the M.A.S.K cars. Man I had and destroyed everyone of them with countless hours of play time.
EDIT: Yes it was the Inhumanoids. I found the one with the ribcage.

I am both selfish and chaotic. I value self-gratification and control; I want to have things my way, preferably now. At best, I'm entertaining and surprising; at worst, I'm hedonistic and violent.

Yes,the Guns of Navarone set was great,although the one I had,while essentially the same where the mountain was concerned,featured U.S. soldiers VS Japanese soldiers.
I believe it was called " Mt. Suribachi" or something along those lines and was produced by Marx toys.

Yes,the mountain was molded from a greenish/yellow plastic and the Japanese soldiers were cast so as to the render them in a (in retrospect) extremely "stereotypical" manner IE. very slanted eyes,buck teeth etc.

Sit and spin...there's one I could never figure out..
" Yay!! I spin around in circles until I get nauseous...Fun!!"
They should have called it " Spin and puke."

Like it was like some rolling ball like object. Sorta like jump rope.
Yes, my Sister had one of those as well,don't remember what it was called,just that it had a hoop for her foot and a length of plastic chord with a big plastic lemon on the end...and she wasn't very good at it.

Lord..I have got to get my mind out of the gutter...but that thing definitely looks like it could sell as a "Novelty item".
I remember those. I distinctly remember the having the mountain fort, even missing all the pieces I played with that forever.
