Very interesting article, both about the Dr. X robot variants, and also about the early history of Action Man and GI Joe. I was not aware that Palitoy and Action Man developed "Kung Fu Grip" before it was released in America.

Great post. Fascinating article which shows that quite a lot of thinking, research and development went into the various characters and figures that were introduced into this oft too maligned line.

Thanks for sharing.

Interesting article, thanks for posting it.

Alex, do any of your toxic robots have that "exploding" feature?

Yes all seven Toxic Robots have the exploding feature. Infant all the Dr. X robots come with the exploding feature.

How thoughtful of the designer to include a feature that kept all the pieces together even when they explode. 
Otherwise I can imagine bits getting lost so easily and a lot of incomplete robots.

I agree with you.
