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.

I found some of these toys at a thift store a while back and didn't know what they were called. They are pretty cool though.

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

I know this is an old post but according to this web site there was a series two and I just bought two mint in box of two of the rams from series 2 for this one. I found them on amazon so I know that series two did come out .

New questions did the rest of these guys get made into toys ?
Two other vehicles are mentioned but no pics so did these get made as well ?


Here is the site http://oldvintagetoys.info/the-barnyard-commandos/

The toys in question
Series 2

R.A.M.S.

* Master Sargent Cornelius Cannonfodder  (This guy is real I just bought him off amazon mint in box)

* Private Bull Bellwether

* Commander Missiles Muttonchop

* Lieutenant Sureshot Shearling  (This guy is real I just bought him off amazon mint in box)

P.O.R.K.S.

* Corporal Hy Ondahog

* Staff Sergeant Blaster McBacon

* Major Piggyback Gunner

* Captain Hogg Wilde

Vehicles

* Bacon Bomber
* Pork Chopper

I have no idea if the other toys or veicles exist I have not found either of the viecles for sale . I will add pictures to my album as soon as I get a camera. I would love to see a page on these guys .
I have all four of the rams from series 1 with acceosries and one of the porks .
