Thursday, November 22nd, 2012 by Pixel Dan
Sometimes you come across some amazingly ridiculous knock-offs and cannot resist grabbing them!
Join me for a look at this wild die-cast metal knock off from the 80’s! It’s Thunder Prince from the Treasures of the Temple Warriors toy line!

ah man, made me think of this
Was the guy from the toy was slammed by a train? Judging by his face I guess he was… LOL
Dan, you might want to wash your hands after handling this guy. Probably tons of lead in the paint. Lol. On the good side, a G1 transformer couldn't hold a candle to the amount of die cast in this bad boy.

The had these at my neighborhood grocery store (Winn Dixie) alongside Masters of the Universe. They were around the same time Moss Man came out. I remember this clearly because after all the rest of the MOTU figures sold, Moss Man stayed behind. I tried getting my parents to buy it for me every time we went there. It was during one of these attempts that my father offered to buy me one of those monstrosities instead… Demon Man. I never played with it that much. Just wasn't a fun toy to me. I'm sure it's still around my parents attic somewhere.
