There were however a lot of cartoons that seem to have been forgotten even though their merchandise was super popular!</p><p>Who used to watch the show Mighty Max? This cartoon was actually based on the toys but the toy definitely was the more popular of the two. &nbsp;</p><div><figure><amp-img src="https://legacy.throwbacks.com/content/images/2017/06/S8f8YH5.jpg" title="" alt="" height="9" width="16" layout="responsive"></amp-img></figure></div><p></p><div align="center" data-freestar-ad="__336x280 __789x280" id="throwbacks_articles_incontent _1"> </div><p></p><p>The show was only on for 2 seasons between 1993-1994, but the toys ran much longer!

They were a lot like <a href="https://www.throwbacks.com/do-you-remember-playing-with-these-as-a-kid-they-look-totally-different-now/">Polly Pockets</a>, where it was a full play set all in one, except these ones were based on the characters from the show. </p><div><figure><amp-img src="https://legacy.throwbacks.com/content/images/2017/06/mm-whole-set-3.jpg" title="" alt="" height="9" width="16" layout="responsive"></amp-img></figure></div><p>You could get some pretty awesome play sets, that are made to look like skulls, or gorillas, or snakes. When the show came out they started to release sets based on the show, changing the look of "Max" so he would match the cartoon. </p><h3><strong>Did you have any of these Mighty Max sets? </strong></h3><div><figure><amp-img src="https://legacy.throwbacks.com/content/images/2017/06/Mighty-20Max-20Escapes-20From-20Skull-20Dungeon.jpg" title="" alt="" height="9" width="16" layout="responsive"></amp-img></figure></div><div><figure><amp-img src="https://legacy.throwbacks.com/content/images/2017/06/Mighty-20Max-20Conquers-20The-20Temple-20of-20Venom-201.jpg" title="" alt="" height="9" width="16" layout="responsive"></amp-img></figure></div><div><figure><amp-img src="https://legacy.throwbacks.com/content/images/2017/06/f0b0044ed8a1fcb95930c42ed5d5613c.jpg" title="" alt="" height="9" width="16" layout="responsive"></amp-img></figure></div><div><figure><amp-img src="https://legacy.throwbacks.com/content/images/2017/06/original-grid-image-18714-1449003367-23.jpg" title="" alt="" height="9" width="16" layout="responsive"></amp-img></figure></div><div><figure><amp-img src="https://legacy.throwbacks.com/content/images/2017/06/original-19267-1449003863-3.jpg" title="" alt="" height="9" width="16" layout="responsive"></amp-img></figure></div><p></p><div align="center" data-freestar-ad="__336x280 __789x280" id="throwbacks_articles_video"> </div><p></p><div><figure><amp-img src="https://legacy.throwbacks.com/content/images/2017/06/bfa01443bf552b252593ca27d4d81c34.jpg" title="" alt="" height="9" width="16" layout="responsive"></amp-img></figure></div><div><figure><amp-img src="https://legacy.throwbacks.com/content/images/2017/06/c0fedb0e936710eb3c93c6056447ff92.jpg" title="" alt="" height="9" width="16" layout="responsive"></amp-img></figure></div><div><figure><amp-img src="https://legacy.throwbacks.com/content/images/2017/06/08ce86898d1a315fe2f098079d9f2683.jpg" title="" alt="" height="9" width="16" layout="responsive"></amp-img></figure></div><h3><strong>Did you have any of these when you were younger?
