Orgo-Life the new way to the future Advertising by AdpathwayComingSoon is debuting the first exclusive look at Wandering Planet Toys’ latest line of action figures. Inspired by classic sci-fi toys, The Planetoid Raiders are a new batch of quirky space travelers.
Wandering Planet Toys is back with another toy line, this time its own original production. The company is best known for its various collectible action figures over the years of popular classic franchises like Kolchak the Night Stalker, Nancy Drew, The Prisoner, Laurel and Hardy, and more. However, this time, the company is working on an all-new line of retro-style action figures in the form of The Planetoid Raiders.
How to get Planetoid Raiders action figures
The new figures are inspired by Kenner’s classic Star Wars toys from the 1970s (and competitors like the Starroid Raiders) and pay tribute to the sci-fi toys of old while also incorporating contemporary art. The new line of toys is limited edition and features five points of articulation and comes in a 1:18 scale. Fans looking to collect the line can pledge for it on Wandering Planet Toys’ Kickstarter page. The figures available to pick up include the brave Captain Oton, heroic Helmsman Ryot, WarLor the Mysterious Space Traveler, the trusty rusty robot Yogun, and the rest of the team.
Check out an exclusive look at Oton, the captain of the Planetoid Raiders, below:
“In 1977, the year before Kenner officially licensed their classic Star Wars figures, Hong Kong-based indie toy manufacturer Tomland Toys released a wave of action figures loosely inspired by Star Wars,” reads Wandering Planet Toys’ description of the toys. “The Starroid Raiders were cheaper and leaner than their Kenner counterparts and could be bought in drug stores and gas stations at low cost. These figures were ugly space weirdos that definitely resembled aliens from a galaxy far, far away… just maybe not the exact galaxy fans were thinking of. While many viewed these otherworldly characters as ‘Star Wars knock-offs,’ their attention-grabbing head sculpts and bright color schemes made them lovable.
“These misfits and underdogs of the toy box have become highly sought after by collectors around the world. Now, Wandering Planet Toys’ Planetoid Raiders action figures honor Tomland Toys’ wacky tradition of retro cosmic madness. The odd space characters sport designs that look to the retro-future past of the Starroid Raiders while also playing with some new design concepts that breathe new life into the retro-futuristic aesthetic.”
