I know, I had like 20 of those plastic devider boxes FULL of them.
Not to mention, we had this little kiask in our mall that sold the coolest metal slammers, like atomic bombs, and grenades and one shaped like a circle saw.
I can't believe how big of a fad it was, and how quickly it died off.

Die-cast metal. It cost like $100 back in the mid 80's and each lion came off.

I had that, that was my favorite action figure.
The cartoon kicked ass too.

Huge in Chicago, too...I remember there were knock-off slammers that they sold at 711's and what not that looked the same but were really light...they used to always keep them in glass cases behind the counters at stores 'cuz they had so many stolen...totally pointless.
