Explore the pages of the rare 1985 Galoob Toy Fair Catalog with our high-definition scans. Even though Galoob was never one of the top toy companies, it still created many memorable toy lines. For instance, this catalog featured toys from The Infaceables, The A-Team, and The World of Blackstar.
Page 51 of the 1985 Galoob Toy Fair Catalog continued promoting the selection of A-Team action figures and vehicles. These toys celebrated the action-packed television series that had been running since 1983. Most notably, this series featured the bombastic character Sgt. First Class Bosco “B.A.”, played by Mr. T. Along-side him were three other former special forces members who composed the A-Team: Lt. Colonel John “Hammond” Smith, Lt. Templeton Peck, and Captain H.M. “Howling Mad” Murdock.

This page began with the A-Team Attack Tank with Laser Cannon. This 12″ free-wheeling plastic tank had a revolving turret with a 3 ¾” Mr. T™ figure included. Then, the tank pulled a 6″ free-wheeling trailer complete with a simulated tow missile launcher and accessories. It came in a beautiful window box.
Next, they presented the A-Team Jet Bomber. The 3 ¾” Murdock figure took the controls of this beautifully designed A4A jet bomber. It came complete with an opening cockpit, retractable landing gear, and wing bombs that actually dropped. It also featured an 11” wing span. This vehicle also came in a beautiful window box.
There was also the A-Team Van. This 9” authentically reproduced van was designed to fit all A-TEAM™ 3 ¾” figures. Players only needed to remove the roof to place figures inside. It was made of ABS plastic and highly detailed. This also came in a beautiful window box.
Finally, they promoted the A-Team Battery Operated Patrol Boat. This 10″ long patrol boat came with a real-working motor that adjusted for direction. It could be used in a bathtub or lake. This vehicle came complete with one 3 ¾” Hannibal figure and two clip-on rifles.

About Our Galoob Toy Fair Catalog Scans
To promote their upcoming slate of products, Galoob handed out catalogs to attendees of toy fairs and other events. Each catalog was filled with information about their newest toys, even ones still in development. Thus, they often provided the first looks at action figures, playsets, vehicles, and more from their lines. Thus, they have become valuable and rare collector’s items.
These Galoob Toy Fair Catalogs featured toys from their beloved lines. For instance, the company took players to fantasy worlds with lines like the Infaceables and Blackstar. Then, the Defenders of the Earth featured Flash Gordon and other heroes ready to save the day. Other players could create adventures in space with the Adventures of Galaxy Rangers and Star Trek: The Next Generation toy lines. Galoob’s toys also delivered a smack-down with their WCW World Championship Wrestling line-up. The company also created a line-up of mutant aliens, the Biker Mice from Mars.
Galoob used in-production prototypes in their images, as these catalogs were prepared before the lines were released. This meant that the featured toys often differed from the retail releases. Moreover, toys sometimes appeared only on these catalog pages, as they were canceled or never hit retail store shelves.
While Galoob only handed these booklets out to trade professionals, we have now made them available to all. You can explore the toys featured in these catalogs with our Galoob Toy Fair Catalog Scans. This is a rare treat since catalogs like these have become increasingly difficult to locate with each passing year.
