Vince Vaughn Just Co-Created His Own 1980s Inspired Action Hero Toy

Flint Starstriker is here.

Masters of the Universe. G.I. Joe. Transformers. Care Bears. These are just some of the names you think of when you think of popular toys and kids’ shows of the 1980s. One you definitely don’t think of though is The Starstriker Bandits starring everyone’s favorite hero Flint Starstriker. That’s because it didn’t exist. Until now.

io9 is excited and intrigued to reveal that Vince Vaughn (yes, that Vince Vaughn, from Swingers, Wedding Crashers, and The Lost World) has teamed up with his friend and partner Peter Billingsley (yes, that Peter Billingsley, from A Christmas Story and Iron Man) as well as Ryan Kalil (yes, that Ryan Kalil, of the NFL’s Carolina Panthers and Apple TV+’s Hello Tomorrow) to make a brand new addition to that nostalgic 1980s canon, 40 years later: The Starstriker Bandits starring Flint Starstriker.
