I know these were cheap but I'll never forget waking up on Christmas morning to find these opened and geared up, hanging on my stocking. It's one of the best memories I have
My brother had these figures, but seeing this I know I was better off w/ my A-Team figures which were the 12" scale. They looked how the team was dressed in the series. The weapons and gear worked out beautifully. BA had a toolbox w/ tools, Hannibal, Face & Murdock had backpacks, Howling Mad had a grappling hook w/ 'rope' (a string). There was even Amy Allen too. She had acamera and other gear. I hope RTR does a review of the 12" line. The only ones I didnt have were the team of bad guy mercs made too. I also heard there was a 12" playset and ideas about that?
I had face and B.A...but I bought them with the van and vette..and they had hard heads. Maybe the versions that came with vehicles were updated because the heads on mine were never soft.
I Loved those one's when I was younger! I mean I had tha other one's too along with the Van! but I preferred these one's!!! & would make it like they sumtimes worked wit my Joe's on sum mission's against COBRA or whomever evil LMFAO!
Hey, that B Team was entertaining! I’m sure they’re better than the 2010 movie. You could storylize that when the A team originally escaped from prison, these guys just followed through the tunnel, lol
I got these ones instead of the larger ones back in the day. I also got Face's Corvette (which came with the exact same Face figure in the 4 pack), ths car was definitely a better made product and outlived the figures for years.
The “villain” figures were even cheaper, less articulation like Star Wars figures. I used the tiny rubber bands from my sisters braces to keep the guns in their hands.
I don't know... the larger figures were obviously better quality than these, but as long as these weren't too pricey I could see a kid getting the set and maybe the van and being in heaven for a while. At least Galoob made sure they had a lot of different 'stuff' to go with the figs (vehicles, headquarters, etc). I only ever had Murdock, and even though I could tell he was cheap compared to Joe, he was still ok.
I don’t how I found this video...But the A Team figures I had came in separate packages, Are they like the cheap no name figures, for the parents that couldn’t afford the real ones.... Mr T came with a Gun and bolt cutters and Gold all over.
I had these as a kid there were better than the review mine went into many a battle and came out fine half the guys on this video wernt even born when these were out so how can they review them toys from the 80s will be brittle now and will brake stop reviewing things you have no idea about

I remember getting these for Christmas back in the day! yes, they were cheesy, but I still loved them because they were the A-TEAM!
And I had these as a kid and loved them. Back in the day they were good.
Great review. Even as crappy as this line is. It still has a special place in my heart. lol
I think Galoob recycled them from some old Gen. Patch action figures if am remembering right.
They are no where near as good as the "other gallob" ones that are dressed appropriately and seem to be way better.
MR T is an icon for most kids and adults.
I watched this on GMA 7 here in the Philippines.
The best television ever. Expect the toys
My Favorite show as a kid
I enjoyed your review and how you presented your A Team theme video.
I had these back in 1986 and I couldn't have been happier as a kid, I really want to find a good set of these on ebay to buy..
Enjoyed the history and observations in this review.
I remember opening these on Xmas morning... By the end of the day three out of the four were broken... So sad.
I got these for my fifth or sixth birthday and it was all four with a mini base or a camp. It was pretty cool to have B.A. kill Destro!

Best UA-cam video opening song ever! Great video too!

You were lucky with just the thumbs - the legs came off my Murdock figure! :)

The outfits make them look like a Power Ranger / Super Sentai team. I wonder if they were planning to add Triple A Amy in a pink jumpsuit. :D
The “villain” figures were even cheaper, less articulation like Star Wars figures. I used the tiny rubber bands from my sisters braces to keep the guns in their hands.
The vehicles look pretty cool though.
The A team had another line that where bigger and had the correct clothing. I think those where much better A team toys.
Great review. The Corvette is the only thing worth owning in this line.
That Corvette is fucking gay like you
The internal rubber bands in mine broke the day I bought them.
These were just re used action figures from another line Galoob had. General Patch or something like that. Just used the same molds. Cheap!
The stuff of nightmares!!!
I had these as a kid and I was kinda disappointed with them
I was (and still am) an action figure junkie when these were released and even I thought that these were terrible.

B Team!! huahuahuahuaaaa... Very Good!!

Do you wanna watech a movie called the a team movie you gotta
Nice review. I had these guys and they sucked. The 6 inch ones at least were dressed correctly.
haha--I remember these---dollar store action figures
Broken thumbs were always a problem with G.I. Joe's also.
Less of a Crack Commando Unit, more of a Crap Commando Unit. :P
I got all these from mcdonalds happy meals in the 80s.
ohhhh how my george peppard cute he is always cute old or young how much I'm in love with him since I saw him he's my destiny
I was that kid that got The A-Team for christmas..... I was embarrassed to play with them. Even to own them. I think we all were.
This is a perfect example of a great idea poorly executed!
