    Nice Inspector Gadget collection you got there

    I remember in the 1980/1990's that Kmart used to sell an Inspector Gadget doll that was about 30-40cms high?

    Indeed, an awesome collection there TJ.

    I too once owned the Mad Mobile and I loved that toy, I also used to have the doll that you describe Ed as he was about 30cms tall with extendible/spring loaded legs, Mechanek-esque extendible neck, I think the arms used to extend also with firing fists and a hat that one could plug in either his third hand which held a huge Mallet or an Umbrella or you could plug in his Gadget-Copter!

    These were really well made toys for their day and had a lot of playability.

    Totally cool, I was only ever lucky enough to get the MAD Car but I still have it at my parents place. I should check it out next time I'm at home to see if it still all works. we could combine our mad car collections to make a fleet!

    I had an older version of his car but I sold it for alot of $$$ last year. Same mould as your one

    That old 30cm Gadget was so so cool. I had a friend who had one.

    One of my mates had the MAD car, man I thought it was so cool and the way it changed into jet mode was awesome.

    Never seen the Gadgetmobile in the fles though.

    I second calls to see how it changes between modes!!

    thanks Tetsuwan Convoy,
    i will get to it with those pics for gadget's car transformation!
    the mad mobile is a great toy,the jet was a good getaway mode (as in the show)...the submarine mode was good for lurking (on the bottom of the ocean in the show)& overseeing evil plans!

    hello vert,
    ...yes an older different version would sell for many $$$! you say the mold is the same,what is different(paint/stickers/other?)it would be interesting info!
    i agree the doll is cool and didn't get it myself because (same as you) a friend had it!

    Those Inspector Gadget toys are awesome! I used to love the show as a kid but I don't think I ever bought any toys.
