Plastic, partially painted aliens and spaceships.

The ships are based on Thunderbird ones my set of them came with a space themed play mat with a painting of a death star knock off on it the other aliens also came with the set. The last picture figure is from something different.

Picked these up at an antique store today. Curious about year they're from, and of course, which line of toys. There are no markings anywhere on them except "China". Thanks in advance :)

This one came in the same bag, but is unpainted (beyond silver) like the others. Not sure if it's from the same line or not, though it too says "China", with no other distinguishing marks.

First group are outer space men. If you like glyos and such the four horsemen of motuc fame are making new figures with original creator with glyos compatibility.

So are they maybe "Outer Space Men" bootlegs of some kind? Because they aren't as large as the bendy OSM figures I found when I googled them, but they're larger than .25 cent machine toys. 

UPDATE: Found these pics online. Looks like the ones I have are from a bootleg playset. Anyone recognize these from the in-box pics? Still curious what year they're from...

Yup thats the exact set I was talking about. I do think the space ships are not based off any existing molds though but all expect the space shuttle are clearly thunder bird 1 to 5.

Heh, the whole thing is a giant ripoff of so many franchises ;)
So now all I need to know is what year this came out.

I remember getting mine in the mid 90s at a discount store in Morcambe that's about it though.

That's good enough :)
I can't imagine they manufactured a bootleg like this for more than a few years. If you found it in the 90's, then it's probably from the 90's.
