Name that toy! With

Think back to the late 80's/early 90's for this toy question that has been baffling my office. We're trying to find the name of a brand of action figures that used gliders and ziplines. Apparently there was a good and bad side, and their lines were neon green and neon orange respectively. We don't believe there was a cartoon associated with them. Google, ebay and action figure websites have turned up nothing.

Best answer: It was most likely Sky Commanders

Just to additional answer part of your question that isn't answered by quibx's link, Sky Commanders was a cartoon the toys were based on. I remember it somewhat well.

And yes, somehow I messed up my link. It should be cartoon.

The show intro (embedded WMV or something) is great. We find that they employ new gravity lock and laser cable technology!
