Hey, does anybody remember "the Bearriors" toyline
A few weeks ago I was going through ToyFare issue #71 & I came to their Price Guide Spotlight on Toys of the 1980's. I was curious to see which toylines they'd include, as they've left out tons of 80's toylines from their guides for years now. So I'm scrolling through the stuff when I come upon the this odd entry: the Bearriors. Now, I consider myself to be very knowledgeable when it comes to toys. I know of a few toylines that most of you probably never heard of before, or can't remember, but this one even has me baffled.
I even did a Google search, & was shocked to get not 1 single match back on it. So I tried eBay & got the same results, on completed and active items. This was getting a little freaky. It's like discovering the Coelacanth of the toy world or something. Just in case some of you don't have this issue, here is the information shown in the price guide (minus the values as I don't think it's really important) so maybe it can jog the memory of a few people & we can get to the bottom of this: Bearriors Coleco (1987) Captain Cutter (w/ quick draw action) Harvester (w/ interchangeable arms) Kaolus (w/Ruckus) Kodiak (w/ claw swipe action) Pandor (w/ sword slashing action) Polarr (w/ hammer swinging action) Vehicles & Accessories Bear Claw This sounds like a pretty awesome toyline to me. From what I can make from the names, I'm guessing it's a bunch of anthro bear warriors, consisting of a Koala, a Panda Bear, a Polar bear & a Kodiak bear. I assume they're enemies are Captain Cutter & Harvester, as they are the only ones without bear-type names. I found out from a ToyFare staffer who frequents he-man.org message boards that they'll be doing a article on the Bearriors in issue #74 of their mag, so hopefully in a month's time we'll have the answers. -Snailman |
