There's some figures in this rack toy set that do look familiar. They all have He-Man legs! Anyone know the story behind this, the Space Ace Robot Playset?
Space Ace was a pioneering laserdisc / arcade video game by ex-Disney animator Don Bluth. Cutting edge video game technology back in 1984 when we got to see first preview glimpses of the game at Animation Days held in Helsinki that year.
It was an absolute pig to play though, you'd get so far, then collision detection would fail you and you would have to sit through the same cutscene again, just to make the same mistake at the end. Looked great, but aged badly
