Jackal Raider with General Plague, Sky Commanders by Kenner 1987
Sky Commanders: Jackal Raider with General Plague – 1987 Kenner | Factory-Sealed Vintage Set
Unleash villainy from the cliffs above with the Jackal Raider, the primary assault vehicle of General Plague, the ruthless leader of the evil Raiders in Kenner’s underrated but action-packed Sky Commanders line. Released in 1987 during the golden age of Saturday morning cartoons and extreme toy engineering, this set is pure vintage weaponized nostalgia.
The Jackal Raider is a formidable sky-cruiser armed with cable-mounted attack claws and spring-loaded missiles—designed to deliver sabotage and destruction across the floating terrains of Sector 389. As for General Plague? He’s the big boss. With his cybernetic jaw and grim expression, he led the Raiders’ mission to conquer the mineral-rich high-altitude islands by hijacking gravity-defying tech. This figure, exclusive to this set, sports his signature black and red battle harness with hook-clip grip to attach to the included “zipline” cable system.
Fun Fact: The Sky Commanders cartoon was one of the few animated shows in the late ’80s that placed a strong emphasis on tactical strategy, vertical movement, and high-tech cable warfare. Think G.I. Joe meets Mission: Impossible, but with gravity-defying stunts on zip-lines—and of course, the toys came rigged for exactly that.
