There were several Valkyries, but no Garland (as far as I know). Oh, and a SDF-1 (as shown in my most recent collection update).

 

I love convertors. Kick ass collection!

 

Thanks, Cromag! Yep, I've been in love with these little buggers since 1984  

 

Wow. I actully have one of these little jems , the macross looking fighter plane . I can't even remember when I got it , it's been in my Bot stash for like 20 years . Thanks for the history lesson bro !

 

Happy to oblige, Okup3000. And thanks for checking out the Convertor goods!

 

Nice pictures Sportinmorton I really enjoyed them. Back around September or October of 1984 just in the pick of the robot fever. The stores in the toys aisle where flooded with all kinds of transforming robots, nobody really knew who was who or what was what, transformers just had a few days or a week on TV. I picked up a black little van for my father to buy me, which was so post to be my first transforming toy, thinking it must be that van from that cartoon. But later on for a long time I thought for being small with die cast parts and rubber wheels , that must have had being a gobot. Not until I spot him in the internet and found out that he belongs to what are called Convertors.
Now Convertors is what I always use to look for in stores, since I was a fan of the Valkyrie and knew they had him with the SDF-1 and love the other mecha style type they had in that line, but really never paid attention to the Convertors brand name, but more of thinking why didn’t the cardboard where it came on said Robotech.
I think there I still a lot to know about the Convertors toy line just like there figures and there makers. You got a nice (MISB) SDF-1 Convertors and I have one almost exact like yours, just by looking how it says Select maybe you can tell which ones where the very first ones shipped to the US. I am pretty sure the one I have where shipped first from 84 and the one you got was the last SDF-1 sold around 85 and later on maybe being forts to switch the NofKa figure to a recolored Orguss.

 

Superb stuff! Thanks for sharing. Love the select cassette!

 

Very cool! I actually had the red owl, picked up from a second hand store in atlanta georgia while visiting my aunt in the mid 90s

 

Oh wow cool

 

I forgot I had some of these. I remember the red race car (3rd from top) and Atlantis. I can still feel how cheap the plastic and transformation was. Thanks for the memory jog.

 

Wow, old and neat! Don't remember them at all. Only remember GoBots!

 

Even better than the last time I looked at it. And very informative too!

 

OMG... D.A. Tong. I'll totally had that. Bitching that it wasn't a real Transformer. Also remember that I broke it too. You want to sell it?

 

i had those binoculars, forgot all about them.

also have the blue pinball machine still, it's in great shape, may do a trade

 

bumping this thread just 'cause  

 

Wow, amazing seeing all of this stuff again. I can't count how many times I said "Wait, I had that!" while perusing the pics.
I even had that wind up toy you have as your avatar, sportinmorton
