Okay, I would really appreciate some help on this one. From what I remember I got one of these at a convenient store in the late 80s in southern IN. It came in a clear baggie. It was approx 2 inches in height and a solid color plastic. It came as a torso-head piece, 2 arms, 2 legs that hou snap together. I would love to just find some pics of these things if at all possible. Thanks in advance for any help!

Thanks for the feedback folks! The ebay auction is very similar to what I remember. I'd love to give more details, but it was so long ago that I'm stretching as is. Like I said, very similar to the ebay set but maybe a touch less flair - although I could be wrong. For the macross stuff, I'm pretty sure it wasn't robotech oriented and certainly not super deformed. They were pretty skinny robots. Thanks again, all! And please feel free to give more suggestions. I'd love to stuff that's similar...maybe one of them will be them :)
