I tried to sell some of them lose once without much success. It was just the figures, though. No figures or accessories. haha.

The Pork-a-Pult made my day.  8)

Was there a short-lived cartoon to go along with these? If not, someone should make one. It would be hilarious.

As for a animated series I looked on Wikipedia and it says that only four episodes were produced for the series on VHS tapes.
