I bought the entire first 3 series of them (all rub signs/pre-crystal figures) for around $1700 on ebay.

Triple Threat Snake (English) / Snakebomb (Japanese) holds a special place from my childhood, as he was in the first 2 pack I got, and I love him to this day. His axe-pike is an awesome weapon, and made me think of the weapons used by Jabba the Hutt's guards. I remember when you had to mail away for the poster that had all their names on it.

They were featured in an episode of the Heasmasters cartoon, on their own planet called Beast (yes, really! No ties with the War Planet series however). Headmasters had plenty of planets, like Master, Feminia, Athenia, Pirate, and a couple more, Beast is nothing to be surprised about.

OK Thanks JZ. I've actually got Headmasters on DVD but have only ever watched 2 episodes because of the Japanese only dub, which I honestly can't stand.
