Are there mice on Maaaaa-aaaa-a-a-ars?
The Biker Mice From Mars are a ‘90s property, which is a little bit later than my regular ‘80s nostalgic zone, however…generally an idea simply appears like one thing that it’s worthwhile to personal. Take some Martian mice and put them on bikes and…yeah, it actually speaks for itself.
I’ve completely no data concerning the Biker Mice. Probably the most I do know is that it ran for 65 episodes within the mid ‘90s. Having one in hand, I absolutely intend on watching just a few episodes of the cartoon, however as of this writing…all I do know is what I’ve in my hand.
It’s a Mouse.
He rides a motorbike.
He’s from Mars.
With that stated, and with my admitted ignorance, it’s a fairly cool toy. My preliminary intentions had been to simply get the chief of the group, however as soon as I had it in hand and fiddled with it, I figured I ought to go forward and seize the remaining two characters which can be presently out. I don’t suppose I’ll be getting all of the bikes, however I believe I’ll get Throttle’s, since he’s the chief.
I just like the aesthetic. There’s undoubtedly a biker really feel to him. He appears like a mouse Dreadnok or one thing. The sculpt goes in a cartoon-faithful route, so there’s no try at presenting a extra sensible tackle him. I like that.
The articulation works very effectively. He’s acquired double jointed elbows and knees, a wibble joint within the torso that does a fairly good job contemplating the vest, and—oddly—ball jointed hips. Ball-jointed hips in 2024 does really feel a little bit odd, however not less than they’re not the outsized orbs of yesteryear. Regardless of the balls, they determine nonetheless feels streamlined.
His tail is ball-jointed, so you may get some first rate movement out of it.
Throttle comes with a pleasant array of equipment. He comes with three units of arms: fists, grips and expressive. He comes with three heads: impartial, mouth open and helmeted, for when he’s using his bike.
The pegs for the heads really feel a little bit small and shallow. I’d have favored a sturdier connection, as a result of the pinnacle that was hooked up to the neck in package deal was a little bit on the unfastened facet. The 2 heads that weren’t pre-stretched out match snugger, however a firmer connection would have been higher.
He comes with a laser pistol and a few sort of disc launcher, with two additional disks. To be sincere, I don’t know if he’s holding it proper, or something about them. That’s why I’m going to look at the cartoon.
Additionally: scorching canine. Mouse with a scorching canine.
The determine strikes effectively, seems nice and feels sturdy. If this had been an ‘80s property I’m undecided if I might have been into it or not, however as an older and wiser toy collector this can be a fairly cool addition to the gathering.
