Comic Book Action Figures

Cobra Commander

2013-01-05T08:03:00.000-05:00

I don't actually plan to start collecting GI Joes. I always wanted a Cobra Commander when I was a kid though, so I picked one up.

Lego Gandalf

2013-01-05T07:53:00.000-05:00

This is the only Lego thing I've bought so far. I might pick up more later if something catches my eye. Gandalf's good for now though.

Batman And Robin

2013-01-05T07:23:00.000-05:00

I'm going to use these figures for a Justice League scene and a Teen Titans scene I'm putting together soon. Until I do, I put together this temporary scene.

Toy Cars

2013-01-05T06:57:00.000-05:00

I don't really collect many Hot Wheels or anything. I occasionally grab famous pop culture vehicles when I see them though. So far I've got 3 Batmobliles, the Mystery Machine, and the A-Team van.

Raven and Martian Manhunter Variant

2012-09-09T09:07:00.000-04:00

Here's a couple more DC Universe Classics I picked up recently - Raven and the Martian Manhunter variant. I also picked up the regular version of the Martian Manhunter but I'll be posting that in a Justice League scene I'm already working on.

Green Lantern and Green Arrow, Green Arrow and Red Arrow, and Green Lantern Vs. Sinestro

2012-09-08T06:41:00.000-04:00

I picked up Green Lantern and Green Arrow, then a couple weeks later I picked up Sinestro and Red Arrow. So at first I had a Green Lantern and Green Arrow scene, but before I uploaded the pictures, I changed it to a Green Arrow and Red Arrow scene and a Green Lantern vs. Sinestro scene. So here's all the pictures at once.

C-3PO added to Millennium Falcon Scene

2012-02-13T22:10:00.001-05:00

I picked up C-3PO a little while ago and added him to my Millennium Falcon scene.

Hoth Battle Completed

2012-02-10T10:08:00.000-05:00

When I first posted my Hoth battle scene, I mentioned it was a work in progress. I had the AT-AT, a couple figures, and that was it. Now, other than the odd tweak here or there, I finished it.

I got really lucky putting this one together. I wasn't planning on putting in a rebel base. I stumbled on it in Zellers on my pay day. It came with the 2 cannons, 2 of the rebel soldiers pictured and K-3PO. I didn't even know there was a Hoth play set, so I was pretty happy about it.

I found some pretty decent deals online for the snowspeeder and some of the soldiers,. The snowspeeder came with Luke and Dak, and since I already had a pilot Luke, I traded the extra one to a friend of mine for a Wedge. (I still have Dak in the back seat for now. I going to try to work on getting a Janson later.)

Finally, I was already thinking about looking for any kind of Star Destroyer to fill in the last of the big open space the scene occupies, (I'm missing a shelf, otherwise I'd probably have 2 spaces there instead of one really tall one.) so when the Darth Vader / Star Destroyer Transformer came out, I picked it up just for the Star Destroyer. (I have no intention of ever transforming it again.)

I'm actually glad I'm missing that shelf now. I think it all came together pretty nicely.

Bounty Hunters, Grand Moff Tarkin, and Stormtroopers

2012-02-07T18:04:00.001-05:00

I finally got the last bounty hunter I needed (Zuckuss) to put together the line up from the Empire Strikes Back. I also picked up Grand Moff Tarkin and put together a little imperial scene.

Yoda Vs. Palpatine

2012-02-05T21:57:00.000-05:00

This Emperor Palpatine is actually the Episode 1 Darth Sidious that was just released so he's pre scarred. Eventually I'd like to get an Episode 3 version to make the fight more accurate, but I'll worry about that later.

Darth Maul on Tatooine

2012-02-04T14:35:00.000-05:00

I knew the new Star Wars figures were coming out soon and I planned to pick up a Darth Maul. I ended up buying 3 Darth Mauls, his speeder, and the Sith Inquisitor. (Among quite a few other figures.) I'm glad I did though because they ended up making a pretty cool Darth Maul scene.

Ghost Rider and Spider-man Mini Figures

2012-02-01T22:10:00.000-05:00

The mini figures were given to me so I don't know what the name of the toy line is. They're metal and about 2 inches high though. The big Spider-man is a pre Marvel Legends Toy Biz figure.

Ghost Rider is one of the few Marvel Legends I have that isn't part of a scene. I keep him on top of my Playstation instead.

Black / White Lantern Hal Jordan, TDK Scarecrow, and Updated Random Scene

2012-01-27T09:19:00.002-05:00

I stumbled across these the other day. Black Lantern and White Lantern Hal Jordan, and Scarecrow from The Dark Knight. I put them in my random scene and changed it up a bit to make room for them.

Pewter Spider-man Statue

2011-12-30T09:39:00.000-05:00

One of the few collectables I've ever managed to keep in the package. Probably because it's the only collectable I have that looks better in it's package than without.

Millennium Falcon on Hoth

2011-12-26T14:40:00.000-05:00

I didn't intentionally put this together as a Hoth Scene. I bought a lot of figures in a short period of time to jump start my Star Wars collection and a lot of them just happened to be Empire Strikes Back figures.

Mace Windu and Yoda / Lightsabers

2011-12-20T08:23:00.000-05:00

Once I get more figures I plan to put these two in a battle of of some kind. For now, they look cool standing in front of my TV.

Since the last time I posted my lightsaber, I bought a second one. It's got some bad wiring and doesn't light up very well. I can't complain too much about it though. It only cost me $3.00 and still looks cool.

Anakin vs. Obi-Wan / Vader vs. Ben

2011-12-18T22:18:00.000-05:00

I guess I kind of went for a before and after scene for this one. Eventually I want to expand on this scene with every version of Obi-Wan from the films and his partners and opponents. (ex. Qui-Gon, Episode 2 Anakin, Darth Maul, etc.)

Marvel Movie Figures

2011-12-17T07:18:00.000-05:00

This is most of my Marvel movie figures. There's a couple movie figures that made it into my comic scenes because I don't have a comic counterpart for certain figures, but other than one or two, this is all of them.

Battle on Hoth Scene

2011-12-16T05:45:00.000-05:00

This scene's a work in progress. The plan is to replace the Stormtroopers with more Snowtroopers and add more rebels. I could only find one of each so far. I'd also like to try to get my hands on a snowspeeder.

Bounty Hunters

2011-12-16T01:50:00.000-05:00

Last time I posted my Star Wars stuff I barely had anything. Then a little while ago, over the course of about a month I dropped roughly $150 on Star Wars figures. So my Star Wars collection is off to a pretty good start now. The first picture I took is of the bounty hunters line up from The Empire Strikes Back. I'm missing Zuckuss though. After Christmas I'm going to get back to my online shopping, so I'll probably get him then.

Random Figures

2011-11-14T22:25:00.000-05:00

This is a random display of figures that I don't have very many of to put together in their own individual scenes or don't have room to put anywhere else.

Daredevil Scene

2011-11-13T01:35:00.000-05:00

I'd like to get a couple more background pieces for this scene since there aren't many figures in it. I customized Daredevil's and the Hand Ninja's nunchucks by replacing the strings with the anti theft twist ties that come in the packaging. (I always keep them for stuff like this.)

Hulk Scene

2011-11-08T22:24:00.000-05:00

I moved the figures around since the old scene. It still looks fairly the same though.

Optimus Prime and Megatron

2011-11-05T03:55:00.000-04:00

I still have a lot of old toys from when I was a kid that I need to sort through. These are the only two that have made it on to my shelf so far. I've had Optimus for at least 20 years now and Megatron close to that too. I'm only missing two guns for Optimus and a couple small accessories for Megatron.

Midnight Sons Scene

2011-11-03T10:41:00.001-04:00

I took apart my Secret Defenders scene in favor of a Midnight Sons scene this time around. There isn't much for Midnight Sons action figures that have been made so my team is made up of an amalgam of different Midnight Sons rosters. I would have put Vengeance on the team instead of opposing them but he fits in better on the other side.
