1986 saw quite an ambitious line-up of vehicles, figures, playsets and games. Not every item was an instant classic (I think the heroic warriors lineup for 1986 was particularly weak), but the scope of the line by this year was impressive.

Were the VCR games ever produced? I’ve certainly never seen any evidence of them.
It seems that they were not – something I should mention in the post, I think!
love it..thanks for posting for the good times
I seen the headline that says He-Man has eight new allies. Now only five came out that year. Also the other three came out later on that year but they only get credit for half of the year. So what happened and did Mattel say anything about it? I received a letter from Mattel about this many years ago. The three figures that were supposed to come out were: King Randor, Sorceress, and Clamp Champ.
Interesting thing, the Battle For Eternia game shows Teela, Two-Bad and Rokkon playing pieces, but the actual game they are MIA. The playable heroes reduced to four and the evil warriors became 8 but Two-Bad got the boot, with Stinkor, Kobra Khan and Tri-Klops added. That’s a little odd, because going by the assortments show here, Tri-Klops was discontinued in the action figure cases by then.
