This is a cool figure line and goes good with a MOTU collection. I have a small collection now but am waiting around for a good lot to show up on Ebay. The few figures I have are incomplete and are a little rough condition wise.
I do however own Warlock, Triton and one of the vehicles. Warlock & Triton are loose and in excellent shape. I traded some GI Joe stuff to a buddy for them just over a year ago. They are two of the coolest action figure creatures I have come across. Anyone else out there into Blackstar?

I own a carded Overlord, carded LL Vizor and am waiting for a carded Euro LL Blackstar to be delivered. I just recently got into this line and really like collecting it, but the figures are so hard to come by.

Does anyone know if Meuton's and Gargo's wings are the same?

Meuton has one-piece wings that connect to his back in one spot. Gargo has two-piece for the laser light version and one piece for the regular version. From what I've seen, Meuton's wings are the same as the regular Gargo. I hope this helps! ;D

I found a great pic that show the entire Blackstar Collection. Now you can see what you are missing and cry cause you can't find a Trobbit Wind Machine anywhere :

Wasn't there another vehicle, the Thundrax or something like that? It was remote controled and sort of like the MOTU Attack Trak, only it rode inside a large wheel that could unfold into a track. I know I've got it pictured in a catalog somewhere.

I'm not sure, maybe it wasn't produced? Are you thinking of the Battle Wagon? I do have 1 other vehicle, the grey space ship with the open cockpit, small side wings and a black stand. I don't remember what it is called. I'll have to post a pic of it.
On a side note I noticed that Warlock the Dragon has 2 versions - one with yellow and one with green wings. Anyone know if he comes with a saddle? The boxed versions I saw don't look like their is a saddle.

There is a picture of that vehicle in one of the old catalogs, but it doesn't seem like they ever released it. It is cool looking though. I have the Warlock with the yellow wings and he comes with the saddle. All of the pics of the green version I have seen don't have the saddle.

That grey space ship is the one I have. I wonder what the missiles for it look like as i probably have them in my box of unknown accessories. I LOVE that castle!

Hey Mr. Incher....here is a pic of that saddle.....

I actually have that saddle in my unidentified weapons/parts box! However it doesn't have that half cresent part (I will have to check if it looks broken off). Do you know if this thing has any straps? I wonder why it wasn't packaged with the green Warlock version.

Post by turnbolt on Jun 23, 2005 10:27:34 GMT -6
I don't know if it had straps or not....but it does have little things on each side of the saddle that looks like something might attach to it.
The Cresent thing is seperate so you can but it on Blackstar and then plug him in.
I will post a pic in a sec.

Yep, mine does have little tabs on the side. Its good to know it isn't broken and the other piece is seperate . I'm sure it will be near impossible finding that small crescent piece

Post by turnbolt on Jun 23, 2005 11:10:26 GMT -6
At least you found the saddle. Blackstar doesn't really need the cresent piece....but I know we are all crazy and want it to be complete. Why doesn't the green one have a saddle?

The only thing I can think of is that it was a later edition and they were trying to save money.

Wow! I vaugely remember these. I for sure had some of the demons when I was a kid. I really only remember seeing the cartoon a couple times. Those are some exceptionally cool toys. Does anyone know of a web site that has more pictures?

i used to work at a shop in nj called groovespot. and we had everything on that list, and none really cared but me. i staked claim and still own alot of the pieces but sadly my main collection of blackstar went to my ex-fiance , as well as my original motu collection. but its nice to see low key toys lines get some love. by the way black star wasnt a half bad tv show either. considering it was made by the same crew as motu p.s. i wish the ice castle wasnt so fragile!

I do love the Klone figure. I am only missing his tale..... He can't fully transform to the Cloud Cat!!?!?!?!? Here he is trapped in the Overlord's castle(Sorry for the crappy pics) :

Post by 10incher on Jul 5, 2005 23:05:48 GMT -6
The Klone along with the White Knight are 2 of the coolest figures in the line.

One question I have, what color of Demons came with Neptul, Tonga, Gargo, Palace Guard & Kadray. Did the Laser Light versions of these have demons and if so where they the same colors?
|

Post by turnbolt on Jul 19, 2005 12:29:31 GMT -6
Not sure who came with who but there are 6 different color Alien Demons that came with those figs: Blue, Yellow, Pink, Red, Orange, and the standard lite green.

The carded Tongo I have(non LL) has a green Demon packed with it. I suspect that the very first wave of evil figures all came with the standard green Demon. I think it wasn't until the Laser Light feature was introduced that they started making different colored Demons.

I just got the Caslte in the mail and it was detroyed in the shipping. As usual....bad shipping by a ebay dealer dashes the dreams of a Mint Complete Blackstar Castle. Oh well...Guess I need to lots of glue and tape. BE very wary when getting this item shipped. The 2 I have gotten have both been cracked and broken.
