We first looked at
Tarco here about a year ago, but there is another set or
Dr. Who out (actually the third - I seem to have missed one!), and other sets to look at.
So the
Dr. Who Figures Part 3, flyer/insert and two figures with the K9 we looked at last time, this set is all new version characters and that's about all I can say?
This lot is more blurb-worthy, as they are also branded to
Tarco, but were being vended from a standard, stickered
Tomy stack in the local
Sainsbury's? Whether this is a legit licence between
Tomy and
Tarco or an old machine being filled with locally sourced product by a supplier of easy ethics I don't know.
Give him a sword on a baldric and cut those pointed toes down and he'd make an excellent adventurer hanging around the bars in
Riverdeep...do people still play proper
D&D?
Now . . . I've had these for ten years or more, they were in the
Galoob box, not because I thought they were
Galoob, but because
Hasbro ended-up with
Galoob, and
Hasbro issued new type
Action Man licences, so it made sense to put unknown
Action Man figures with the
Galoob/Kenner/Hasbro stuff of similar ilk!
Also,
Hasbro were responsible for the
Subbuteo figures which appeared in Italian gift-eggs a decade or so ago (Can't remember if it was
Zaini or one of the others now?), so these figures may be from those Italian eggs. However, the
Hasbro mark is the same as the
BBC and
Disney marks on the other sets above, as far as size, font and the like, so
Tarco are also a likely candiate?
