Donald Duck XI

Donald Duck returns for his 11th appearance on BPA. This figure was part of a 4-piece set labeled "Disney Heroes" and sold exclusively at Disney parks. The set was rounded out by the usual Mickey & Goofy joined by Stitch. I had a tough time nailing down a year for these guys, but found a blog post from 2014 where someone went to a disney store outlet and found these guys, so probably shortly before that. Similar to Tech Deck Dudes these figures are attached to their boards with magnets. Disney had previously teamed up with Tech Deck Dudes to release Mickey and Stitch as magnetic figures in the mid-2000s.

Cabbage Patch Kid II


This figure's twin was previously featured here a few years ago. I didn't realize more than 1 figure was made until I found this one. Maybe there are more out there? This figure was made in 1991 by Applause and features their standard skateboard which is also ridden by Snuffleupagus and Alice, Plucky Duck and a Roll-Along Smurf.

Pikachu Pin


This is probably a bootleg pin but the artwork is lifted from a surfing Pikachu card. Pikachu (& Mimikyu) previously appeared on BPA in figure form.

Erick & Slappy


Erick & Slappy from Kidrobot's BFF series 5 released in 2019. I'm not sure offhand who is who. The skateboard is snapped and can come apart.

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.
