CYBORG



Kenner produced a detailed rendition of Cyborg featuring a "Power Action Thrusting Arms" action mechanism for inclusion in its third series Super Powers action figure wave. Since the line ceased upon release of the 3rd series, the offerless 33-Back card represents the sole packaging type for Cyborg and his other 3rd series companions.

Kenner Canada released 31 of the 33 carded Super Powers figures in bilingual packaging featuring both English and French text to comply with bilingual packaging laws in the country, however Cyborg was never released in Canadian packaging.

Children residing outside the US and Canada collected Super Powers action figures distributed by additional international companies. International carded Cyborg figures released by the following company have been documented in carded form:

Estrela also released carded Super Powers figures and included Cyborg in their line-up. Interestingly all three 3rd series characters from the Estrela line (Cyborg, Shazam, and Plastic Man) came packaged with a mini-comic for the character. Both Kenner and Kenner Canada abandoned the mini-comic premium during the 3rd series release, so these three mini-comics are completely exclusive to the Estrela line. While examples of the Cyborg mini-comic exists, I have yet to encounter a carded Estrela Cyborg. Having said that, it stands to reason carded examples do exist.
