Toy companies have created some bizarre action figures in pursuit of profit. Successful lines often reach a point of over-saturation, churning out heroes in unwanted get-ups. aneverydaystory has compiled a list of inexplicable figures, including lame variations of He-Man, Batman, and the Ninja Turtles. Some toys were bad from the start, leaving one to wonder if anyone even wanted them. Take a trip to the attic and dig out that old box - you might find some of these oddities to toss.

Having to buy an accessory separately is embarrassing. Especially when it is just a mangled cow torso for your Rocky figure to hit.

Masters of the UniverseThis toy line was already odd. It got weirder when Eternia's dentist joined the fight against Skellator in this Matty Collector exclusive.

Wrestling action figures have gimmicks for a long time. They cover many ideas. Yet, making your mostly-naked guys get drenched in sweat seems gross.

An Aunt May doll is weird. We do not want to picture the sad, Spider-Man-themed birthday where the kid gets this as a gift. Is that a milk mustache?

The TMNT franchise lacks ideas with the farmer variants. Also, these guys live in the city.

We all had relatives who gave us 'educational' toys as kids. Creepy Uncle Todd McFarlane covers this with this (probably) inaccurate picture of Elizabeth of Bathory. Some show her nipple, so there is an anatomy lesson.
Thanks, Uncle Todd!

Being Robin is an unsung role; you stay in the Bat's shadow. Adding 'First Mate' and dressing you like a pirate is an insult.

Assume this toy is not for kids. Even this toothy version of Mrs. Claus ruins Christmas for everyone.

Fans of Optimus and Megatron may not know the short-livedTransformerThe series of robots that looked like guys who turned into robots who turned into dinosaurs. Grimlock was the stoutest, weirdest look in the batch.

Thirty years ago, William "The Fridge" Perry created a G.I. Joe from the '85 Chicago Bear's break out defensive player. That was a great idea. Explaining it now sounds crazy.

These might have sold well at Hot Topic in the early 2000s. Now, they are about as desirable as a copy of their latest LP.

Wanye Knight fromJurassic Park? Yes, we are sure he never looked this good. The sunglasses sell it.

Cobra is full of oddballs and rejects. However, this yuppie accountant turned shirtless bird-lover is too weird, even for the guy who is a genetic mix of the world's worst tyrants who ran Cobra.

We aren't picking Isaac. This is just a bartender toy from...The Love BoatThis seems the most ridiculous toy from the entire Love Boat line.
