Dino-Riders (1988-1990)
Dino-Riders put two alien races from the future on the backs of dinosaurs, and Tyco's toys made the dinosaurs the stars. The heroic Valorians and the villainous Rulons rode everything from a Deinonychus to a giant Tyrannosaurus Rex across Series 1 in 1988 and Series 2 in 1989, before the line swapped dinosaurs for mammoths and sabre-toothed tigers in the Ice Age. For more dinosaur action, see the Extreme Dinosaurs.
Complete checklist of 57 Dino-Riders figures across 4 series by Tyco, 1988-1990. Updated 28 October 2026.
