The 80s are calling, as Big Bad Workshop is bringing a retro toy series back to life in 2026. C.O.P.S. 'N Crooks was an action figure toy line released in 1988 by Hasbro during the late boom of 1980s collectible toys. The name C.O.P.S. stands for "Central Organization of Police Specialists," and they have been recruited to fight crime in the futuristic city of Empire City. The line featured two opposing groups: the heroic C.O.P.S. officers and the villainous Crooks led by Big Boss. Each action figure came with unique gadgets, colorful uniforms, and themed accessories, which were a big highlight at the time.

The toy line lasted only a short time, but it is back and better than ever as Big Bad Workshop kicks off a new 1/12 COPS 'N CROOKS line starting with Bulletproof. Bulletproof is loaded with detail, including a soft goods jacket, 20 points of articulation, and. a nice set of accessories. This will include extra hands, a second head, a gun, a briefcase, and handcuffs. Big Bad has them packaged in windowless packaging that is loaded with some sleek late-80s art. Fans can bring home Bulletproof right now for $39.99 on Big Bad Toy Store, and stay tuned for more COPS 'N CROOKS figures coming soon.
