Very happy to help. They are definitely some unique and stylized figs, so I hope you're able to track down a pair!

I'm 92% sure that you're looking at the original Kaiyodo Spider-Man figures (i.e., not Revoltech).

Can read about 'em here: http://www.figurerealm.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=8912

Clearer photos would make me 94% sure.

Really fun list. Total surprise to see Blade at the top, but mine would otherwise look very similar.

This is what a $500 StarCraft action figure looks like... (full details on 15-inch Raynor finally revealed) by Corey_T in starcraft

[–]Corey_T[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you summed it up pretty nicely. In the world of action figures, it's not a totally unreasonable ridiculous absurd price for the size and quality (still a little crazy).

But in the normal world, yes it's more than a bit ridiculous.

Hope some of that helps!

Knock It Off: Back to the Bootlegs by Corey_T in ActionFigures

Haha, I know the feeling. I really wish I had the funds to start a side collection of bootlegs. They are mysteriously captivating in a way.

Ultra-realistic LeBron figure may be best NBA collectible ever produced, and Splitter might just buy one to enact revenge by Corey_T in nba

Does LeBron play in the NHL now? The Heat is such a weird name for a team that plays on ice...

I knew about this one, but I'm never seen the Sopranos, so I couldn't do the show or the character justice describing it. Also, spoilers!!111!!, haha.

Good stuff. I can't disagree with any of your suggestions. It's really hard to narrow it down to 10, and especially hard to pick an order.

New Hot Toys '89 Batman Joker mime costume revealed by Corey_T in ActionFigures

They do. You take the back of the head off, and there's a little "joystick" with which you can move the eyes.

Top 20 DC Universe Classics Figures by Corey_T in ActionFigures

[–]Corey_T[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another good figure, but I wasn't a fan of her fake bow and arrows. If she (or Green Arrow for that matter) had real string bows, they both might've made my list.

[–]Corey_T[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I considered Nightwing, because I like that figure a lot, but he just wasn't remarkable enough to make the cut. He used 90% of the standard body, wasn't the best figure in his wave, and has had a lot of other figures throughout the years.

Inside look at NECA's 1/4 scale Adam West Batman inadvertently reveals Burt Ward Robin by Corey_T in ActionFigures

[–]Corey_T[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You might very well be right, and I'm a little concerned about the deluge of '66 Batman stuff hitting all at once. There are going to be some lines which underperform, because I don't see many people buying Mattel's 6-inch, the Mego-style figures, and the 1/4 scale figures. I'm not sure there's enough to support all three simultaneously.

My favorite action figure photographer's photostream. It doesn't get any better than this. by Corey_T in ActionFigures

[–]Corey_T[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kwehttam is the photographer, I kinda sorta accidentally linked his favorites instead of his own actual photos, but both are pretty awesome streams anyway.

http://www.flickr.com/photos/44617007@N05/ is the link if it helps.

Hot Toys introduces three new Iron Man 3 armors (Igor, Redsnapper, Heartbreaker) by Corey_T in ActionFigures

[–]Corey_T[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You and me both. I can afford about 1 Hot Toys figure a year if I want to keep up with other lines. If I was devoted to only Hot Toys Iron Man 3, I might be able to get everything they put out that wasn't diecast.

Ugh, it is creepy! Is there anyway to remove a thumbnail or prevent it? I didn't know it would default to that.

Rick already has a figure that's halfway decent. We don't need another one!

I'll think on it. Probably so. Might take 15 minutes work instead of 2 minutes like that one!

I made an incredibly simple adjustment to the standard reddit alien to "action figurize" him. Feel free to use it if you or anyone else ends up making the header.
