centurions
I don’t know why I just remembered this, but one of my favorite toys growing up were the Centurions toys. I don’t really remember watching the show or particularly what it was about, but these bionic guys were great toys to play with. The swimmer guy (Max apparently), was the one I had and I just loved that guy. My brother had the flying guy.
I’m not sure quite why he was my favorite. I’m still a swimmer now, though. I think I have a point in here somewhere.
Update: My brother just reminded me of M.A.S.K. toys which were pretty incredible, too. I remember having Gator, which was one of my favorites.
Wow. Hours, possibly weeks, of my childhood, right there.

I don’t remember the Centurions at all. I do remember the M.A.S.K. show and I had some M.A.S.K. toys, though. I was definitely most into He-Man. I had (still have?) a lot of the action figures as well as some vehicles and both Castle Grayskull and Snake Mountain. I was reminded of my He-Man figures last week when I smelled a woman’s perfume and it reminded me of the scent of Stinkor:

Good times.
