Captain Planet was the brain child of media mogul Ted Turner. Gaia, the Spirit of the Earth, awakens to find the world in danger from pollution and other toxic evils. So, she assembles a group of geographically and racially diverse youth -- Wheeler (North America), Kwame (Africa), Linka (Eastern Europe), Ma-Ti (South America) and Gi (Asia). And, by their powers combined, they form a superbeing known as Captain Planet.
Here is what I have in terms of Captain Planet...

Gi Captain Planet and the Planeteers Action Figure Line 1994, Tiger Captain Planet and the Planeteers Inidividual Figure Gi (pronounced Ghee) is the water controlling Asian representative of the Captain Planet team, voiced by Janice Kawaye. According to the Captain Planet Web site, "Gi...is a mixture of refined culture and high tech/high style. A student of marine biology, she has a strong scientific understanding of the various ocean ecosystems. Gi is an athlete - her favorite sport is surfing. She is at home with the sea and its creatures and has a particular fondness for dolphins. She's also a rock 'n' roll fan as well as a natural linguist. She is a team player, though she can be a bit too impetuous at times." The figure is pretty standard looking. Because it isn't fully poseable, she looks a little stiff. The backpack used for the water spraying action makes the figure special, as does the ring that comes with it.
