Chuck Norris Karate Kommandos - Part 2 Vintage Toy Review Kenner 1986 

No matter what I'm watching at the time, when I get the notification for a new retroblasting video, I got straight to it !

I got to watch Chuck Norris movies in elementary school! They were the best parts of my childhood

Melinda: "He's afraid of Chuck Norris. . ." PRICELESS!!!

That’s what it takes to be a winner.

I'm glad we finally got this video.

It’s always a great day when I get a notification that there’s a new RetroBlasting Video to watch!

My favorite has to be the one with the 'Marty McFly' motif, too... He must've jumped ship!

When I was a kid,I watched every movie Chuck Norris was in.

You know how long I wait for this video. A very LONG TIME.

Love the anchorman references

Same here. No one ever talked about Chuck Norris in the 80's. He became more popular in the mid 2000's.

I love broken Vader

I loved these figures back then , guess I was the only kid who did. I hadn't seen many of his movies back then but was totally aware of who Chuck Norris was .

Thats what it takes to be a winner

I loved life with you! Lived life! Thanks 80’s all day baby!

I had the whole set. I can still remember the day my Mom donated the Chuckvette! 😢

Delta Force and Missing in Action were two very popular Chuck Norris movies in my elementary school in the mid 80s

I got the blue and white overalls Chuck Norris for a birthday present when I was a kid. I was like "Who is this"? The action feature was a novelty that figuratively and literally wore out quickly.

It is interesting that the reviled "Mighty Spectre" figure from the MOTU Classics line looks a lot like "Super Ninja". Thank you for another great video.

Got myself a Karate Corvette along with "Undercover" Chuck and Kimo for a cool $40, figures weren't complete but they were in good condition as well as the car, can't beat that

That's what it takes to be a winner. Great vid!

Love the anchor man drop

Loved these and completely missed out on them.

Snake Eyes once had a rap battle with Chuck Norris. He never spoke since.

Toy Vader has no hands to channel his Force to fight that toy Chuck Norris...that's what it takes to be a winner!

love the Chuck pick up part! LOL!

I love this videos, and broken Vader too

Worth the wait cheers Mike.

Awesome video as always Micheal!

Another excellent video, first class

"out of chuck" Oh yeah, that's what I subscribe for!

Wow, I have never wanted a Chunk Norris GI Joe more

I remember seeing chuck norris fighting jeans that wouldn’t rip in the crotch when you threw insane kicks. These adds were hilarious.. I saw them in some of those 80’s ninja magazines that Michael has mentioned before..

I actually love this toyline just got them all loose complete now onto the carded ones

Who isn’t afraid of Chuck Norris?

I didn't watch the movies, but everyone I knew was aware of Chuck Norris. Me, my brother, and my cousin all had multiple toys from this line. Karate and ninjas were massive and everywhere in the 80's it was all I wanted to do from about 87-92. The best part about these toys is that they look EXACTLY like the characters in the cartoon. It seems counterintuitive, but that wasn't actually a very common thing in the 80's *cough He-Man*

There are no Bruce Lee jokes, because Bruce was no joke.

So does that mean if Chuck Norris endorsed the Corvette back then Chevrolet would've made one like that? lol Great follow up to the last one, short just like the toy line was but unlike the toys the video wasn't shoddy. Worth the wait.

Awesome video

This had me laughing all over the place. I love you guys.

This was my childhood lol

#ThatsWhatItTakesToBeAWinner

Norris is half the battle. GI Joe! Cool video. I forgot all about this line. Never had any as a kid as it never interested me.

I remember getting Super Ninja for Christmas back in 1986.

LMAO the return of Broken Vader! Love your guys videos! Will email you both soon!

Another great video. Your right about them not making an impact. I had one of the ninja and totally forgot. Love the gi joe custom. Going to have to make one for delta force. You guys do amazing work. This has become like a “show” I tune in for.

Great follow up. Nothing says Fourth of July like Chuck Norris. Personally, I haven't watched much Chuck Norris movies growing up either, in fact, as I said in part one, my first exposure to Chuck was that stupid cartoon. But the figures do look pretty cool, but not as cool as that custom "G.I. Joe" figure. I was thinking Chuck Norris would've made for a cool G.I. Joe figure. Hope you and Melinda have a great Fourth of July.

To think I decided to start that collection after watching the commercial instead G.I. Joe but changed my mind on the last minute after I saw the awesome art of the G.I, Joe boxes in the toy store. Getting these action figures instead the G.I. Joe vehicles my mom gave me that Christmas would have been the worst mistake from my childhood and a turning point in my life.

I'm back! Great video. I personally never saw a Chuck Norris movie until I was in my 30s. I do remember watching the cartoon wondering who the heck "Chuck" was and why did he have his own cartoon

Awesome video as always love broken Vader

Missing in Action was big in my neighborhood for a summer and had an effect on how we played with our GI Joe and like sized action figures. But yeah, it was more the concept of the move and not the Norris in the movie. :)

They made the toys they created the characters and they are a perfect creation in toy form. They look better in pictures and videos. I'm a fan of all these characters in any form like toys even I don't collect them. Always be a fan of the creations of these wonderful characters as toys, in comics and cartoon shows.

OMG - this finally explains the origin of that obviously knock-off Ninja figure I've got in the loft. It's been taken from the mould of one of Super Ninja's henchmen! RetroBlasting has come to the rescue again.

As a kid I had the "ninja servant" figure and I really liked it. It was one of the better generic ninja figures that I just repurposed for my own play. I didn't care about Chuck Norris at all.

Chuck Norris was the white Bruce Lee movies martial arts hero and karate 🥋 Champion ! In the 80’ s he was world champion 7or8 years in a row ...yess kids khew about him he was a real Human action figure!

My wife laughed out loud when Chuck tried to pick up April O'neal. I think this show suffers from two problems. One, its in a situation where being too toy accurate backfired. I mean, you can't take anyone seriously when they're swinging around candelabras and the corvette shoots serrated barbels. The 2nd problem is the animation is kinda lame like the toys. If only they gave it to TMS or Sunbow, it may have balanced out the ugly designs with awesome animation.

I like you😍😍😍 Chuck Norris. I love that figure 😀

I was expecting a Casey Jones figure to go running behind the car after April lol

i LOVE Ninjas... and those Ninjas from this line are AWESOME looking. well. the normal Ninja.... not Super Ninja so much. kinda like the Rambo line i guess, Black and White Dragon are AMAZINGLY cool figures.

Ha! YES! Love it! The vid, not Chuck so much....I'm whispering so um...Mr. Norris doesn't hear me.

I remember getting that red car at a flea market when I was a little kid. I never knew what it was from until now. And no, the initials didn't give it away, wise-ass.

EVERYONE is afraid of Chuck Norris on some level. Personally, I'm terrified of his acting ability. That, and his endorsement of Mike Huckabee in 2012.

I'm sure they must have produced a figure of Claw that never got released as if you look at the Terminator Cyber Grip Villain action figure, it's claw arm looks exactly like Claw's from the Karate Kommandos cartoon. So I imagine they sculpted and produced the mold but then ended up making use of it for Terminator as the Chuck Norris toy line was cancelled before they had a chance to release Claw.

what if in the logo chuck norris replaced both of you instead of just michael haha great video guys

I only got Undercover Chuck and the 'vette as a kid. That car was pretty cool, at least Kenner got him a nice ride.

Overalls Chuck Norris looks like a Mortal kombat character

Chuck Norris and the Neon Commandoes

I totally forgot I bought those ninjas and that they were even part of the chuck Norris line.

I always hated Reed's plunging neckline and bonnet. Also it was "Sidekicks" endless airings on HBO that sold me on the idea Chuck was awesome.

Too awesome

The only Chuck Norris movie in the 80s that me and my friends could even sit through was that romancing the stone ripoff with Lou Gossett jr

I heard the if you get a Round House by Chuck Norris... Your body explodes!

"Marty McFly" Chuck Norris also has the exact same outfit as Cutter, from G.I. Joe.

If you take the Kevin Costner Robin Hood figure and put him up on top of Chuck's car you could recreate scenes from Fandango. And ironically both toy lines were by Kenner. Thanks for another great video. As a Trekkie I am eagerly awaiting your new Trek video.

Awesome ! I thought Vader was actually afraid of moving arms...like a toy can have any arms....

Now we have all of the karate and "explosion" action, no matter how flimsy the animated companion will always be. Stay safe everyone!

"That's what it takes to be a winner." LMFAO!!!

The Karate Corvette... I'd say Chuck Norris was having a mid-life crisis, but Chuck Norris is beyond timeless. Let's face it, Chuck Norris will outlive the Universe itself.

my friends talked about chunk norris back in the early 2010s

If Kenner would have at least made them the same scale and price as the Super powers collection, there is a small chance more kids would have bought these, but you're right there was no kids really talking about Chuck Norris at the time. He did have some good movies. They could have tied the toy line to one of them, but oh well.

Just bought a Perfect Grade Exia for 140 dollar. Didn't know these toys existed. New to this channel but Bandai have the best star wars figures and they're cheap.

As a kid the only time Chuck Norris' name came up is when we talked about how Bruce Lee beat him up in Way of the Dragon

Chuck Norris is in all the Star Wars movies,he plays The Force

That reminds me. I gotta get one of those foot daggers. That´s what it takes to be a winner.

Looks like I was missing the sumo and under cover chuck Norris and those later editions toys and the car.

If barbie get a corvette so does Chuck 😂😂😂😂😂 Awesome video!

Great follow up guys. Loved it but now it's done, what have you left for the fans to nag at you to get done next!? Ha I'd rather wait for a quality release. Always great to see Broken Vader too.

Chuck Norris didn't really gain the wide appeal he had until well after this line. Sidekicks tried, but let's be honest, it was Walker:Texas Ranger that made him popular, followed by the infamous Chuck Norris lists on the internet.

Hope to see Chuck Norris, his Karate Kommandos and his enemies all remade into Super7 ReAction Figure Styles✝️✡️☸️🥋✋🐲🐉🥷🏯

I remember have all 3 versions of Chuck Norris and the Black Ninja. Undercover Chuck was by far the best one of the 3, got much more play out of that one than the other two though I would use Battle Shirtless Chuck every once and awhile. Brings back memories. P.S. What book are you getting smacked in the face with in the intro? Always wanted to know but forget to ask.

That’s what it takes to be a winner

I just wanted the ninja, but of course so did everyone else and you could never find him on toy shelves. And yes, I had no idea who Chuck Norris was until he became a meme.

That's what it takes to be a winner.

How did they resist not making a Claw figure? That huge claw arm would have been hard for kids to resist.

I guess it wasn't Super Ninja that finished Norris... It was Norris that finished Norris.

The Kung Fu one was interesting to me because Chuck never trained in Kung Fu. His styles were Tang Soo Do, karate, taekwondo, BJJ, and Judo

Any chance you might do a video on Bionic Six? That might be the best cartoon of the 80s that no one ever talks about.

This is one advantage being a touch older Mike cause I did see number of Chuck Norris films in the 80s and I wont say they were the greatest or he's Oscar worthy (FORGIVE ME CHUCK!!! LOL) but a lot of guys in my peer groups were into his flicks. Granted none said they wished they were toys, but I agree if GI Joe had a Norris Mail Away we would have gone bat-shit crazy to get them. Other models from his movies that could have worked as a GI Joe, Lone Wolf McQuade, the Delta Force and the Octagon. Especially after the Ninja craz (which you guys know about lol) Imagine a CN Octagon figure vs Storm Shadow or a Delta Force Norris leading a squad of Joes against Cobra Troops, or McQuade vs say all the Dreadknoughts LOL Gotta stop drooling now LOL

New sub

You're crazy. I had a couple of these figures and thought they were ok. But then when TMNT came out, they fit right in with those, especially the ninjas. BTW, I didn't know one kid who had any Karate Kid figures.
