Help identifying action figure

Digital Ghost · 10-09-2010, 10:32 AM

Alrighty folks, I need your assistance identifying an actiion figure and all I have to go on is the description, as I parted with it many years ago and image searches are coming up empty.

Here's a brief description from memory, so I could be wrong with certain details...

It was one of my favorites as a kid and from what I recall, quite poseable. It looks like a cyborg hawk, possessing red eyes, a set of removable wings and a laser-rifle. The back of the head has a poseable extension (pony-tail would be the wrong word) and there may have been a symbol on the body somewhere. It was obviously from something fantasy/sci-fi related, perhaps even G.I. Joe but I haven't been able to locate it. Keep in mind, it wasn't as large as a He-Man figure, for example.

Well, that's really all I have to go on.. if you know what I'm referring to, please let me know as I'd love to track down another one of these!

Any help is immensely appreciated!

I want to add that it has a human-shaped body... the only part resembling a bird is the head.
The wings aren't bird-like wings either but rather, streamlined mechanical wings.

I think I know.I think it's from Mattel from the Captian Power line called the Sentry.I think that is what it is.

Someone google it and see if a picture like what he described comes up.

YES!!! This is it, thanks so much cryan! I knew I could count on you guys.

This guy was one of my favorite figures when I was a kid... I don't think I had any other Captain Power stuff, hence why I couldn't find it.

Actually, I found this website and I had almost all of them.

Yeah,the cool thing about Captain Power was that the toys and the live action show that followed were interactive.The toys could shot infrad beams at each other and with a few hits the figure get ejected from the Jet.Very innovative at the time.Oh,you are quite welcome

.When you posted the description it took me a little while to get figure it out.
