My Dad got some things down from the attic recently - in my 80s toys were Adam Power & Drrench - I didn't realise as a kid that they were from the same toy line. Only when I did a bit of research now did I find out! Then I saw the rest of the Power Lords range - Wow, so unique! I wasn't really keen on Adam (maybe he will grow on me) but all the weird creatures are so cool - I bought Tork & Grripptogg almost immediately & will definitely be adding all the others to my collection in the near future. Thanks for a great video resource to turn to when I need it.
Another very cool retro toy line Mike. as your review went on .I got more and more interested! I already checked a few out ..OK Mike have a good evening thanks.
Freaky creature designs, I like it. I don't think this line was ever released in the EU because I've never seen them in stores as a kid. Probably a U.S. release only. Oh, and don't think I didn't see what you did there, sneaking in the GI Joe classified figure. Very smooth using him as a "size reference". Shameless product placement I say. 😄
Yes they may have only hit the USA but I do not even remember seeing them in stores just randomly got Adam at Christmas. I figure most collectors are familiar with Joe Classified size
Always thought these were so strange (as a kid) didn't feel like they fit in with motu, so I didn't ask for them. Did have drench and backattack that I picked up at a flea market when I was still young. They were actually complete, but felt very fragile and I didn't keep them long. Someone gifted me the he-man looking tank guy and I remember pretty much hating it as a child lol. Purchased a Volcan rock from eBay back in the early 2000s. It was mostly incomplete and extremely fragile, but the sculpture surface is really nice. I have since resold it.. I was super excited about the four horsemen line until I found out they were so damn small.. never bothered to buy any because they weren't in 5 or 6 inch scale. Something that seemed a no brainer.

Never had these but enjoyed looking at them on toy shelves (even the package art and character bios were fascinating).
A great video. Thanks for making it.
I had the wave one figures, air ship and Volcan Rock when I was a kid. These were awesome. I still have them all.
I had a lot of these.. and Volcan Rock. very cool toy line

Thanks this is a really fun line to collect and display
I love that you have every character of toy lines I have never even heard of. These are all really interesting.
Glad you enjoyed! I like to make these vids because there is not much out there along the lines of resources for these
ah that is so cool a toy for Skitzo kids, wish I had that so I knew where the voices where coming from :P

As a child in 82 I had Adam power and the queen. I was 5 going on 6 and I remember being so creeped out by these figures, the queen was nightmare fuel
LOL she sure is a creepy character
this video is so much better than Aquaman 2 :P
Had a few as a kid back in 2000 i bought all the figers on cards still haven’t opened them
I have a gripptogg but unfortunately missing the sash, I’m also missing one gun for arkus I also have lord power complete that’s it so far 😂
OMG❗️
I had the male & female that were double-sided‼️
Those were so cool. Interesting concept. 🧐
Will there be a remake or 3rd party resurgence ?
The 4 horsemen tried but there was just not enough interest plus they had the them too small

Moral is "DRUGS ARE BAD MKAY!"
Old-school wow
These go back to very early 80s
Is it just me or does Back Attack look like the Space Jockey from Alien.
Did the Power Lords hang out w/ the Rock & Jewel Lords?
Sadly they did not but they should have they would have gotten along well
The character designs are so random, they remind me of children's drawings
I am not familiar with this line and the corresponding cartoon series.
There was no cartoon the only animation was from a commercial. This line was really old and did not last very long
