For #VintageToyTuesday I’m going back to one of my favorite and most under appreciated toy lines: #AdventurePeople
The Firestar I…
Still waiting on the Firestar II!

Fisher Price Adventure People display from 1976.
These were my "big" Christmas present for the year; I had four sets and still have them somewhere. They are indestructible!

For #VintageToyTuesday here’s another of my favorite #AdventurePeople Astro Knight! He originally came with a glider which is why he had grooves in his backpack and stationary legs… which always confused me as a kid. Nonetheless even with his ambulatory dysfunction he was a regular at my cantina

I recently was reunited with the 1980 ShopRite catalogue. I burned holes in all of these pages that Christmas season, and some, like this incredible spread of Fisher Price Adventure People, still strike a chord.

I don’t know how I want to display this guy. Everything is good. And this isn’t even using the alt arms, legs, or chest piece he comes with. I guess I just need to buy another from @toysnowman. #MythicLegions #CosmicLegions #RetailerAppreciation #AdventurePeople #FisherPrice #FourHorsemenStudios

Day 136 of a year of toy pics - Clawtron meets the Astronaut in a secluded corridor for the exchange.

The world NEEDS more Clawtron figures! Ok, I need more Clawtron figures :)

Ok it’s possible I’m getting a little carried away with the image generator on chatGPT… but seriously who wouldn’t want to see an #AdventurePeople movie with these guys?

A bit more thrift store luck with a Fisher Price Adventure People "Alien Pilot". A little beat up but so am I.

Now to hunt down some of the X-ray people.

Sometimes I feel like I’m the only one out there collecting #AdventurePeople… they are still cheap and I rarely see them at shows. This beauty was mine as a kid but was in horrible shape and had no stickers. I cleaned it up and got some original replacement stickers and the electronics still work!

#FisherPrice #AdventurePeople Astronaut from the Alpha Recon aka Alpha Explorer set. Found it in a bunch of $5 toys at one of the local hobby shops.

Easily my #1 favorite Adventure People toy… I used to put the parachute on my Kenner Indiana Jones and then loosely attach the parachute to a kite. Then fly the kite until the parachute fell off. It was awesome
