Those actually remind me of Karate Fighters from the 90s.

Sorry guys. I guess I'm too old to know Karate Fighters. Rockem Sockem is the only comparison that I knew.

Same here. This is old news. Both my TRU and Target stores (several of them) had these on the 2nd. I almost picked up a set but didn't quite yet.

Then you should have reported it.
For many people, these are the first images that we have seen of them.

I never thought of reporting it, since I had seen it online before then, but not in it's own thread. Still, its nice to see that everyone has a chance to be in the know.

Bet they sell for AU$35-40.
Could be a good present for the younger ones, or even for the older ones to use after having a few on saturday night!
Awesomesauce; Use it, you know you want to.
