KO Joe

Motorized KO Joe with pull back action! This guy is from the short-lived Cartoon Network series Chop Socky Chooks which aired in 2008/9. This figure is from 2008. The show centers around a trio of kung fu fighting chickens who work in a mall owned by baddie Dr. Wasabi.

Targeteers



Targeteers were toys given out at Target Food Avenue in 1992, an in-store food mart in Target stores. Their names are (clockwise from top left) Danielle, Ramon, Ashley, & Buddy. The skateboards were packaged separately and have 2 pegs, allowing figures to ride in the middle or on the nose, or to allow 2 figures to ride tandem.

Note: These figures are very similar to the Bonnie Series by Silverlit, who also have a skateboarding figure & whose dog rides on the front peg.

Mickey Mouse IX


Mickey's 9th appearance comes as a Tech Deck Dude from 2005. This was a Disney Store exclusive and part of a set that only included Mickey & Stitch. Around a decade later Disney released another round of magnetic figures of Mickey, Donald, Goofy, & Stitch.
