    I have the complete toyline, most of the VHS tapes (including a rare one from Malofilm in Quebec), the comics, all the file cards, and a couple of the DVD sets. It's my favorite series to collect, by far.

    I had Herc Armstrong, still have him actually. Really loved that figure. By the way they don't have tiny head syndrome, think of them as 3.75 scale, with oversized mechanical suits.

    These actually fit with your G.I Joe's because the actual tech specs for the suits list them as 9 feet tall . I actually watched the show when it was live and had the toys when they were new .

    This was a fun review. I watched the show as a kid and still love it to this day. As an adult i am taken back how dark the show is but think its cool how the network allowed it to show. I think this is a line that would be great to have a remake of the toyline because how poor the old ones were. It would be great for Super7, Neca, Premium DNA, or Ramen Toys to modernize the line. I also always thought the heroes would be better size if they were similar to GI Joe 3.75in and they would fit better with the Inhumanoids. Thanks again for the review. 👍🏼

    i had all of these when i was a kid. i also had that big godzilla and i would have him and the other inhumanoids monsters attack each other i even used rom the space knight and voltron. fun times. i ended up getting all of these from a flea market. my mom surprised me with them when i came home from my grandma's house. sometimes it's hard to talk about those things when both of them are gone.

    Used to own nearly the entire set with my brother.... never bought Redsun. I remember Target clearancing the entire line for cheap. I sold the entire collection on Ebay years ago. Pretty sure my 2 vehicles were complete. 2 of 3 of my Inhumanoids' heads broke off + the winch piece on Herc that you mentioned. The rockmen were made that way to fold them up into rock shapes.... it never worked well. D'compose's rib cage should be spring-loaded.... mine was. I REALLY love the animated show & was massively disappointed with the show's premature cancellation + the lack of more characters from the show getting toys.... there were prototypes of many of them, that have since surfaced. The show was gruesome for a kid's show, was written around multiple titan stories from around the world, + focused on hollow Earth! 👍😎
    Thanks for covering these 🖐

    I think the suits are meant to be a bulky exosuit, which is why the heads look comparatively small. If you compare the head size with a GI Joe, you'll find that they are in the same scale.

      Another interesting fact, in the 2nd wave, there was a character named Brad Armbruster who went by Ace... Same as G.I.Joe. and Reporter Hector Ramirez was featured a lot in Inhumanoids, Jem, AND G.I.Joe. Plus the hint that the COPS Character Checkpoint (The Military Police figure) was a Sneeden. Beachhead's son. So the shared universe aspect was already used in the 80's

    I had Her, Magnacore and Granok. I understand the complaints about the Granite character's toys. However, what you didn't seem to know, was that those channels on the toys was so you can slide the limbs around and lay the figure down in a jumbled pile. It's supposed to be their"disguise" gimmick.

    I believe the characters are supposed to be in mech suits which accounts for the small heads. I believe the suits were not made for battle but exploration which is why they don't have traditional weapons. The Granites would roll up into boulders which is why they have the rubber joints, so they can roll up. The only figure I had was Magnakor and it is a disappointing toy, but I had him forever and ended up playing with him a lot. The stone piece was actually another figure as he split into two creatures in the show. In the show, I think Decompose would put you in his chest and start to dissolve you.
