Daryl
Instead of the usual two buttons, Daryl has just one, and it sends his head spinning upwards.
The Incredible Crash Dummies (1991-1993)
The Crash Dummies jumped from America's buckle-up adverts to Tyco toys in 1991, and hitting the impact buttons on their chests made their arms, legs and heads fly off. The 1991 figures started with Vince and Larry before Slick and Spin took over, and some dummies only came in the vehicle and driver sets. Then Junkman's Junkbots arrived and the dummies suited up in Pro-Tek armour. Tyco also made the Dino-Riders.

The Incredible Crash Dummies: 1991 Figures
The original 1991 Crash Dummies figures: Vince and Larry from the seat belt adverts, the Slick and Spin who replaced them, plus Daryl, Spare Tire, baby Skid the Kid, Hubcat and Bumper, and the Canada-only Pitstop. Hit their impact buttons and arms, legs and heads fly off.
BoonsArtHubcat and Bumper
Sold as a pair, Hubcat is a nervous cat who hides before every crash test and Bumper is the dummies' loyal dog.

Pitstop
Sold only in Canada through Canadian Tire, Pitstop is a light blue dummy with Daryl's spinning-head trick.
Skid the Kid
The only baby in the line, Skid the Kid sits in a stroller that fires his car seat off like an ejector seat.
1 Accessory
Slick
Slick stepped into Vince's place in 1991, once the US road safety agency pulled its backing and the line was renamed.

One press of his tummy button makes Spare Tire's eyes, ears and tongue bug right out of his head.
Spin
Spin is Larry turned purple, rushed out in 1991 when Tyco had to drop the original dummies from the adverts.
Vince
Vince starred in the seat belt adverts before he was a toy, with one button for his head and arms and another for his legs.

The Incredible Crash Dummies: Junkbots
Junkman, Piston Head, Jackhammer and Sideswipe, the Junkbot villains who made the dummies switch to Pro-Tek suits. They couldn't be blown apart, so each came with a launcher for hitting a dummy's buttons.

1 Accessory
Junkman
The Junkbots' leader can't be blown apart himself, but his tyre launcher is built to hit a dummy's buttons.
Piston Head
Piston Head's missile is meant to knock a dummy's impact button and send him flying apart.

Like the other Junkbots, Sideswipe has no buttons, so his Dummy Slammer is built to set off the dummies' instead.
