1996 Space Jam Action Figures: Tune Squad & Monstars Review

1996 Space Jam Action Figures: Tune Squad & Monstars Review
Let’s take a look at some more of the 1996 Space Jam toys by Playmates Toys. Usually, two figures were sold together on a card for around $7 along with an accessory.

The human characters in this line and the Monstars share the same simple style of articulation with rotating heads, rotating arms, and rotation at the waist.

The Looney Tunes Toon Squad figures are even more limited with rotation at the head and arms.

These action figures usually came with a basketball accessory that has a hole on one side. The basketball can fit on a peg that is located on one of the figures’ hands.

The figures I will be going over include:
Wile Coyote & Charles Barkley with ACME Turbo Vermin Launcher
Michael Jordan & Bugs Bunny with Hyper Lane Surfer
Swackhammer & Tweety with hangtime hoop cage
Daffy Duck & Pound with sky dunk bouncer
Lola Bunny & Bang with Jumpin Jam hoop
Marvin the Martian & Nawt with Slammin’ saucer
Larry Johnson & nerdluck Bupkus & Barnyard Dog
Tasmanian Devil & Blanko with Twist & Roll Cyclone
Michael Jordan & Elmer Fudd with Flight School Flinger
Michael Jordan & Sylvester with Sky Stilts
Patrick Ewing & nerdluck Bang & Pepe Le Pew

The Monstars vary in height by quite a bit. The Tune Squad has the advantage of numbers, but they are going to need it. Those Monstars play dirty.

So my final thoughts on this line are I love the variety of characters made, but I wish the characters themselves were more in scale to each other and they had some lower body articulation. I also always thought it was strange the remaining two nba players that the Monstars stole their powers from did not receive action figures. But overall, I really like this line of toys and I remember having the set on display on a bookshelf for a couple of years when I was a kid.
