X-Men • X-Force Series

Toy Biz’s 5-inch X-Force action figure line, launched in 1992 as a spin-off of its X-Men line. The first wave introduced nine figures, among them Cable, Deadpool, Shatterstar, Stryfe and Warpath, and the line ran for seven series until 1996, adding characters such as Cannonball, Domino and Caliban and many alternate versions of Cable. Early cards used different colours for heroes and villains, before a single card design was adopted in 1995.
