Toys The Centurions (Toys)

The Centurions was an animated cartoon that began as a five-part mini series in 1986 and was soon followed up with a full 60 episode season.

As with all popular 80’s cartoons, ‘The Centurions’ had a toy-line released the same year. However, The Centurions toys were not massively popular and the second wave of toys were cancelled.
