Via In The 80s and Virtual Toy Chest
Toys that turned into other toys in the 80's was a huge fad. This toy concept was one of my faves.
The toyline usually consisted of army surplus gear (made to child scale) that opened up and turned into mini-playsets complete with soldiers. While most Army G.E.A.R. toys followed this concept, some went oveboard -one toy was a Medal Badge that turned into a sci-fi one man flying vehicle. Extra figures could also be purchased.
