Dutch (Jungle Extraction)
Right from the start, I knew that I would go for the Jungle Extraction Dutch. Even though Arnold Schwarzenegger appears only during the first third of the movie in this uniform, I think this is the look that better depicts his character.
Rhino
One of the aspects I like most about collecting the Marvel Universe line is that characters with unusual bulk and design get released on a fairly regular basis, which adds a nice amount of variety to any action figure display.
Yoda (Clone Wars)
To finish off the review of the Clone Wars Gift Pack I got, today I’ll be taking a gander at Jedi Master Yoda.
Kaiju Kaos Set Pieces
You may have noticed a grave in the background of my Merle Dixon review. I’m always looking for cool things to put in pictures just to keep them interesting, and as you probably know, I love action figure accessories. The grave is one of three accessories I picked up from Kaiju Kaos / Acheson Creations […]
Merle Dixon
It took along time before I became sympathetic to the character of Merle Dixon on The Walking Dead. I’ve got a redneck streak, but it mainly involves duct tape, flannel and a love of deep fried food. I don’t carry the hatred that Merle exhibited from the very start. In the end though, Merle came […]
Elektra
Even though I never really read Daredevil comics growing up, Elektra is one of those secondary characters that kick started the whole Ninjas-Are-Cool trend back in the day so, she was one of the characters I wanted the most to see in action figure form when the Marvel Universe line started.
ARC Commander Blitz (Defend Kamino Battle Pack)
ARC Commander Blitz shares the same molds for upper legs, torso and upper arms with the regular non-removable helmet clones but his appearance is strikingly different thanks to a number of newly tooled pieces.
Lady Jaye (Retaliation)
I began collecting G.I. Joes rather late in the game. I never got the chance to find several of the characters that made frequent appearances in the cartoons nor the comic books. One of those was Lady Jaye, so I jumped at the chance to add her to my collection as she came out in the G.I. Joe Retaliation line by Hasbro.
Iron Patriot (Pop! Vinyl Bobble Head)
Since I already reviewed War Machine, this shouldn’t come as much of a surprise. Since I saw him for a good price, I really couldn’t pass up getting get the repainted movie version of Iron Patriot. I’m not a huge fan of the colors for a weapon armor, but, he looked pretty cool so I […]

Name That…Return of the Tooth
Yeah, this is a rerun. But, its the one that the good folks on the AFB Forum have never been able to crack. Well, not that you would want to crack a tooth.
Claw General Zod
After getting one Superman figure from Mattel’s Man of Steel line, I decided to round up my collection with a more visually interesting character.
