The comic book Micronauts were based on a line of toys sold
by a (defunct?) company called Mego (gee, I wonder...)
There was an Acroyear action figure, and later an Acroyear II
action figure. As a wee lad, I owned both. Of course,
I owned them as a little kid who liked space toys, not as
an obsessive adult hoarding them and selling them off
for mad dollars on eBay, so they're long destroyed now...

That first picture on the right (the dude with the
huge pinwheels and the crazy P-Funk wheeled boots)
is Acroyear (I).
-d.w.
