| Hey guys,
I can't remember the name of a line of action figures from the mid-to-late 80's...they came 3 to a pack and represented different elements...the figures were anthropomorphic animals (ie animals that stood on their hind legs)...they had weapons and armour, and were fire, water, earth, air...anyone remember them/have a link to a gallery of them? | |

| I was talking to one of my Profs about Battle Beasts a few months back. We were discussing the two ways the Chinese elements are ordered. The conductive and the combative. It turns out Battle Beasts use the combative method. I often wondered if the toy line became popular enough...... would they make the Five Emperors as Action Figures?

| The 5 emperors?
I know when I was much younger they were really, really cool - I had massive combats - fire & earth vs air & water... | |

The Five Emperors are a group of Ancient Chinese Gods, that over time began to be thought of as Legendary Rulers. Each one of them corresponds to one of the Chinese elements. Huangdi the Yellow Emperor(earth) is considered the "ultimate ancestor" of the Han (Chinese) people.

That's it! Battle Beasts! They came two to a pack (with special 10 packs). I initially thought Battle Beast but that threw me off. Also, it was water, wood, fire and sunburst (sunburst beat them all).
I've got a miniature army of them. Do you want to buy them?
