80s Toys Socks
Description: Battle Beasts are 2″ tall anthropomorphic animal action figures that originated in Japan in 1986 as 'Beastformers,' as an attempted spin-off of popular transforming robots at the time. When the line came to America, they were called Battle Beasts, to better reflect the 'rock, paper, scissors' game that could be played with them. These nicely detailed action figures were based on animals and equipped with body armor and a weapon. In addition, their chest armor included a heat sensitive sticker that would reveal one of three elements – fire, wood, or water. Later, an invincible symbol known as the Sunburst as be released, and became a true chase item, as having a Sunburst warrior amongst your Battle Beasts, you would never lose!
Description: The Popples Friendship Crew debuted in 1986 as part of a colorful plush toy line created by American Greetings and Mattel. These whimsical creatures featured bright fur, pompom-tipped tails, and a unique pouch on their backs that allowed them to “pop” into a ball shape. The Popples became a hit among kids and collectors, inspiring a Saturday morning cartoon series where they pulled oversized objects from their magical pouches and helped their human friends solve problems. The 1986 Friendship Crew lineup remains a nostalgic favorite, with vintage merchandise like T-shirts, posters, and plush toys highly sought after by fans of retro ’80s pop culture.
Description: A design I made to highlight all the pony elements and main characters of the show. There's a lot of detail you won't be able to see at small sizes, but see if you can catch the hidden cutie marks in each background behind the ponies. Also notice that they're all facing outward from the center to frame Twilight symbolizing how she's been the center of the show from the beginning.

Description: Dino-Riders is a 1988 action figure toy line based around the battle between the heroic Valorians and the evil Rulon Alliance on prehistoric Earth. The Valorians were a superhuman race, while the Rulons comprised several breeds of humanoids. Both races came from the future, but were transported back in time to the age of dinosaurs. Once on Earth, the Valorians befriended dinosaurs, while the Rulons brainwashed them. The toy line saw four series of figures released between 1988 and 1990, each of which included mini comic books with each figure and set. An animated cartoon series was developed that only ran for 14 episodes, along with a few VHS releases. A full size traditional comic book was launched in 1989, but was poorly received.
Description: Big Wheel is a brand of low-riding tricycle, made mostly of plastic, with a large front wheel and exceptionally low seat. Introduced by Louis Marx and Company in 1969 and manufactured in Girard, Pennsylvania, the Big Wheel was a very popular toy in the 1970s in the United States, partly because of its low cost and partly because consumer groups said it was a safer alternative to the traditional tricycle or bicycle. Its low center of gravity made it a stable tricycle for children to ride, minimizing both tip-overs and severity of any related falls.
Description: Sectaurs was a toy line released in 1985, and not in 1984, as the stamp on the figures suggests. Figures and insect companions were packaged together in a window box with weapons, a mini comic book, and instructions. Some of these companions were large enough for the Sectaurs to ride, and were actually puppet-like, in which a hand could be placed inside a glove making up the lower body of the beast to manipulate the legs and an action feature. A second series of figures were designed and pictured in dealers' catalogs, but never produced due to the line's cancellation. The toy line did not do well, partly because of the intimidating appearances of the heroes and their companions, and partially due to price points well above other figures.
Description: Popples were plush toys manufactured between 1986 and 1988. Each toy had a pouch on the back that could be inverted, so the character rolled into the pouch and resembled a brightly colored ball. Popples resembled colorful animals with long, pompom-tipped tails. The name "Popple" is a reference to the popping sound they make when unfolding themselves from such a ball, or pulling objects from their pouches. In the cartoon series of the same name, Popples commonly pulled large items from their pouches that could not possibly fit inside. In the "Popples Alley" episode, one of the Popples' human friends looks inside one of their pouches and sees numerous objects floating in a large void.
