COMPLETE The Simpsons 1990 Action Figures Review

Let's take a nostalgic look at the full first wave (and only) of The Simpsons action figures from Mattel 1990! The full family is here with a few extra figures. I also show the Sofa and Boob Tube from the same series and show the canceled and unreleased figures that sadly never came out.
The main family are new on the card we can open up and check out complete. Some are childhood figures from the line I had as a kid. Together they complete the full line-up.

Glad they made a figure of Homer's brother Herb. But it's sad they didn't make a figure of Homer's mom Mona I wish they did.

I assume that's the newer lines they made. This was a super tiny one after only 2 seasons.

I always assumed the reason early Simpsons merch leaned so heavily into the Bartman persona is because Batman and Batmania were still huge around this time and obviously Batman is the character that Bartman is based around. The first Tim Burton Batman movie had just come out the year before and was still hugely prevalent in pop culture in 1990.

It was definitely merchandise side and not the show so that may have been part of it, since Batman had so much merch going also off the first movie. I was covering the figures from that movie from the same time also: kzfaq.info/sun/PLkVjD6XP11VqjBrgGjBhi67-2BOtBlZoy

This is awesome. I have a carded Bartman, with all the original Bartman comic series. Loved Bartman back in the early 90's.

That is a good one to keep in the box if you just have one character. I always wanted the while family so I hunted these down.

I had them all except Bart, he was very hard to find, most people just bought him so they would always run out of stock

He was so popular then, likely expains the Bartman figure trying to add more Bart's on the shelf.

This is such a good collection, if only Mattel released more, vehicles, figures and sets!

@MBXfilms Жыл бұрын

There's something about the retro nature of them that I like more than the more modern figures for Simpsons even though there are far more characters. The car and a few more characters would have great for this set.

@@MBXfilms, I for example think the 80's/90' GIjoe are far more superior than the new releases, altough they are really good too; the same thing goes for Batman Animated Series from Kenner, even if they have far less articulation, I prefer the original molds compared to the DC Collectibles new ones; the only exception is the Batmobile, the new version has two seats and everything...

It's a small enough set it was possible, especially since I had a few already. Much easier if you just want already opened ones also.

Cool, I was looking for these Mattel figures, mostly I found were playmates figures, guess is rare to find the Mattel figures....

@MBXfilms Жыл бұрын

These are the oldest and first. But not many characters, just these. So Playmates is good if you want the whole town.

@@MBXfilms ya know, I remembered many years ago, I saw the Mattel Nelson figure came with a square shape trash can made of cardboard box, but yours is the plastic cylinder... Meaning there's the different variants, interesting....

@MBXfilms Жыл бұрын

@@charlesltk2099 That's actually just the packaging, they put that cardboard at the front to blend with the carding photo, and under it is the round plastic accessory. Weird choice, but I think some later ones left off that cardboard so you could see the real accessory inside.

They were mine when I WAS a kid. They are from the year 1990. They are old from when the cartoon started. Retro. Now you have to get them from eBay and stuff if people still have them.

The first was messed up, some clips must have slide over. I wanted the correct version up even if it meant losing the 90 views, which is a lot for me.

@@shiningwizard327 A surplus of couch and TV clips slid into all the other B roll clips. Not sure how and it was a pain to go through and find them. I usually watch the video through but this one was longer and I felt I had gone over it enough to be fine, but one miss click may have rippled the clips down before render. Well it happens, if you ever see anything insane feel free to say and I can check and fix things up. This one escaped me for a while until I watched.
