Fisher Price adventure people set #307 Wilderness Patrol 1976-79. Finally found and replaced the green ranger for mt fisher price set, and also picked up an extra buggy with him too! In recognition of my interview on the toy show group, a huge thanks to MayorPaprika, for asking me to do it. here are some toy shots to share with the group. If you wanted to check out my interview you can find it here,

Very cool! The Fisher Price adventure people line is possibly the most important (certainly most underrated) toy line of the 1970s. The small scale allowed various play themes and vehicles. Without the adventure people line, there is no Star Wars line (or at least not as we know it.) indeed, Kenner used modified Adventure People figures as the original mock-ups for Star Wars characters. We’ve got a few of the Adventure people sets; and they pair well with Star Wars and RAH joes.

Cheers Nate! I agree, they were so much fun, and as you say paired so well with other smaller scales. As far as I remember, these little guys were so much fun for me. I bet Christopher and yourself have some great adventures too. Interesting fact about the 'mock-up' star wars figs.

Well, he did. I just remember them because he had them, I was in high school at that point.
