They had uh, I think two Goliaths two different Goliaths Brooklyn, uh, I think they had Bronx and um I think that might be about it Uh, but yeah, uh, I saw these. I mean immediately grabbed them up I've got to find my son's other Goliath and Brooklyn and in the future. I will do a review on those as well Uh for now we're looking at Goliath This is quick strike Goliath As you'll notice the difference In appearance between him and the other Goliaths in the in the toyline is he has the blue loincloth Whereas the other ones in the line have a brown loincloth He also he's got that growling expression on his face and red eyes the other ones They aren't really growling If they are it's a It's a slight snarl and they don't have red eyes So let's take a look at the details on this guy first and foremost As you can see there is some paint wear on it. It's an old figure. It came out in 95 At the height of the gargoyles Animated series fandom, uh and this It looks like this is maybe one of the first um style of toys To have the ball joint at the arm And that's so that whenever you move his arms Back and forth his wings will flap And Also, you'll notice His wings do detach this one a little bit easier than the other one Uh, it's kind of stuck in place Uh, but they did come in package Detached, uh, I'll show a picture of you of the packaging right now All right So that was the packaging And uh Yeah, it's not not bad. Um, uh, it's a really cool figure. Uh, I like the Uh, I don't know if you can tell there but Feels like uh, they tried to make it feel as much as don't like stone as possible The texture of it Very nice. It's I don't know if you can hear that that well or not But the texture is very nice the paint detail they got the purple to uh, kind of Put in shadows parts that would normally be in shadow The red eyes blood red Very nice And as I said, he is missing his tail uh off to find that someday maybe when my son's a little bit older Uh, and he wants to actually collect rather than play with the toys I'll probably find him the tail So he's got that another thing that Goliath has Quick strike Goliath has that the other uh, that's different from the other ones is A pouncing action. All right, so here he is in a squatting pose um Yeah, it does it does look kind of funny Especially with the look on his face, you know, uh Ha ha ha But anyway when he's in when you scratch down like this his arms can't really Move very much. They're locked into place So what you got to do is You bring the tail you push the tail down and it launches it So let's go ahead and try and get him balanced so that it'll Launch Didn't work that well. Uh, it's supposed to launch him a little bit further Kind of like the uh The the uh Basic vulture on lions that have the pouncing action You know, it's supposed to launch him a little bit more If you're not familiar with garb disney's gargoyles Is an animated series, uh, they came out Back in the 90s the early to mid 90s Is a very good show um It even got syndicated In the mornings on fox kids for a brief time because abc didn't really have A morning uh cartoon um a morning cartoon block Like flock fox kids had abc mainly just did news in the mornings and so Fox kids. I believe it was fox kids Could be wrong. It's either fox kids or kids wb One of those two, uh, they bought Uh syndication rights, uh for season one, I believe And they were able to uh air it In the mornings before kids went to school um basically What it is is 10 000 years ago superstition and the sword ruled uh Gargoyles were a race of Protectors guardians of humans But then humans betrayed them, uh cast a magical spell Making it so that they would sleep in stone for a thousand years Then in modern day they wake up And Xanatos which is the main Uh villain for season one He moves the castle in which they're Stones of To new york and he waits for them to wake up he Tries to Corrupt them use them for his own gain And eventually Goliath the leader of the uh gargoyles along with Um I forget her name But a female cop that he He's very fond of Let's say they don't flat out say that they're in love, but he's very fond of her And she's very fond of him Uh, she helps the gargoyles to uh Defeat Xanatos and get him arrested Uh, Goliath's former mate angela Uh, she didn't turn to stone for a thousand years like the rest of the gargoyles instead She became human Uh at night she becomes a gargoyle in In the daylight she's human, uh, whereas with gargoyles at night Their gargoyles and during the daylight hours their stone So that's that's disney's gargoyles in a nutshell And You may be thinking hey, they got wings so they can fly. No, they don't fly they glide Uh, they've got to climb Very high Uh, usually before they can actually use their wings to any uh any great usefulness They usually, you know climb up the side of a building, you know like And then they'll just leap off and they'll glide You know Uh so when Goliath And the other gargoyles when they're not using their wings they usually have them draped around them and these little hook pieces they kind of Lock each side in place the where I'm kind of like a cloak almost Uh, but yeah, that's that's pretty much it on gargoyles Uh, Goliath was always my favorite. I always I to this day, I wish they would bring gargoyles back disney disney would do Have great success if they brought back The old shows that they that really popular rise them in the 90s You know, they got duck tails, but it's not the same duck tails as before It's an okay show, but it's not as great as it once was They're bringing back dark wing duck in the same style as the new duck tails, which You know, I'm not too fond of but it is what it is You know, they could bring back goof trip. They could bring back rescue rangers Uh They need to bring back Gargoyles gargoyles was a great show It came at a time when superhero shows wore Uh cartoons animated series, whatever you want to call them were extremely popular Um I got season uh volume two of season one on dvd Uh, I still got to get volume one And then I got to get season two I think there might have been only two seasons maybe three seasons, but I could be wrong But there were a lot of episodes in those seasons Uh, which makes it last a lot longer than it really did Seem to last a lot longer than it really did like with power rangers mighty more from power rangers Uh It only lasted really two or two two or three seasons But it seemed to go on a lot longer because They had new episodes every single day. It wasn't just a once a week thing. It was five six days a week They would air mighty more from power rangers. It was pretty close to the same way with gargoyles Uh, ask anyone who is around during that time They'll tell you they more than likely watched disney's gargoyles.
