What is this space soldier miniature from?

well board games were probably popular back then I mean haven't you ever heard of cardboard heroes?

Considering I wasn't born then, no, never heard of them.

Back in 1989, Galoob introduced X-PANDERS, a line of military vehicles that, at the touch of a button, could expand and transform into new configurations brisling with weapons. An armored 4x4 changed into a gun battery; a helicopter could become an assault base.

Supplementing the vehicles was a card of 20 action figures. There were 6 different; 4 in combat poses and 2 drivers. These figures were approximately 1 3/16” tall, or 1/60 scale. Chap Mei made very nice copies of the 4 figures in fighting poses and included them in several lines, including Humanoids Vs Lizoid.

Thanks so much! I'm looking them up and finding there were LOTS of sci-fi minis made back then, and they look fantastic. I can't believe the amount of crisp detail on these things, yet larger figures at the time looked like total crap, little more than tumorous blobs of plastic. Looks like all the talent then was working on miniatures.
