To promote their latest line-up of toys for 1985, LJN handed out this exclusive toy fair catalog to dealers, vendors, and other promoters. These catalogs gave the first glimpses of their newest additions to their hit lines. Within these pages were new toys for lines like Street Hawk, Thundercats, Voltron, and many more. For instance, these toy fair attendees received a first look at the Thundercats’ Thundertank. They also received glimpses of the upcoming Wrestling Superstars and V action figures.
Now, you can also explore the pages of these exclusive catalogs. Since LJN only handed out this catalog to trade show representatives, few have had the chance to view these pages until today. Since many of these catalogs were either lost or damaged over the years, few have made it to the current day in excellent condition. So, enjoy our high-quality scans that will bring you back to 1985.
Wheeljack’s Lab proudly presents high-definition scans of the 1985 LJN Toy Fair Catalog featuring Rough Riders, ThunderCats, and more.

About Our LJN Catalog Scans
LJN handed out catalogs to attendees of toy fairs and other events to promote their upcoming slate of products. 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. Therefore, they have become valuable and rare collector’s items.
These LJN Toy Fair Catalogs featured toys from their beloved lines. For instance, the company introduced the world to the heroic ThunderCats. They also competed in the motorized 4×4 vehicle market with the Rough Riders. Otherwise, the company created the Advanced Dungeons & Dragons toy line.
LJN 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 LJN 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 LJN Toy Fair Catalog Scans. This is a rare treat since catalogs like these have become increasingly difficult to locate with each passing year.
