Toyark is proud to present the 80’s Toy Smackdown. We are going to be running a massive series of polls where you, the fans, get to decide what your favorite toy line from the 80’s is. We’ve compiled a list of 48 of the best and most memorable (and some not so memorable) toy lines from the 1980’s. Various toy lines will go head-to-head bracket style each week. The winner moves on, the loser is out of the running. Once we get down to the final 3 toy lines, they will go head-to-head-to head to determine the winner. But, that’s not all. The event is being sponsored by Big Bad Toy Store and you can win $50 to spend at BBTS!
Starting today, and lasting until Sunday April 15th at midnight, simply Send Us A Massage UPDATE: Write In Voting Has Ended. In the title, just put in who you think will win it all. At the end of the 80’s Toy Smackdown polling, we will do a drawing with everyone who chose the winning toy line. The winner will get $50 in credit to Big Bad Toy Store!
Read on for more details and to check out the bracket to see who is facing off with each other!

LULZ pretty funny!!! So all I have to do is just name a toy line from my youth and it is entered in the poll??
The Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny
It's an oldie, but a goodie.
That's one massive list! and so many memorable contenders to boot.....hmmm tough choices....tough choices.
This week is for people to send us a message letting us know who they think will win. Once the winning toy line is crowned, we will enter all the winning guesses into a drawing and someone will win a $50 credit to BBTS.
Well, I know who I would pick for the winner. Good luck to everyone and may the odds be ever in your....wait.
Let the best toy line win!
What is your avatar, Treble?
yay...we the fans get to vote lol
Interesting, Star wars and TFs in the 1st round? Shouldn't they be in different brackets being that they are two of the biggest heavy hitters? Kinda like #1s in different brackets like the NCAA tourney.
That is a great list. I am surprised that Tron and Clash of the Titans made the list but Indiana Jones did not. The rest is just as I expected.
I went with TMNT since they played such a prevalent role in my life.
Let the best toy line win!
Wow....so many to choose from. I honestly have no clue who to pick as the winner of the whole thing....
Looks like it's going to be either MOTU or TMNT for me.
Transformers were huge, still are huge and i am still a fan since there release in the 80's!!!
I put my vote in for transformers...I think. I'm sending another pm just to make sure I sent it.
Autobots are going to beat all.
my votes for transformers all the way!
Transformers will win.
Yikes, TMNT vs MotU in the first round? Glad I got some time to think about that one...
I agree with Transformers winning it all.
What;re we up to now in the fights?

Those are the two current polls. Polls go up every Monday morning. Here's how the bracket breaks down so far:
GI Joe versus Hot Wheels? Eesh. On a different forum I might be scared for my small soldiers. But they should prevail.
