Masters of the Universe Classics Thundarr the Barbarian by Joe Amato – even though Thundarr isn’t a Filmation property, he and He-Man go together like peanut butter and jelly – so it’s no wonder that a Thundarr custom from a He-Man body would look so good – now we just need a Princess Ariel and Ookla, Joe! – ends Jun 23, 2013 14:45:22 PDT

Transformers Masterpiece Optimus Primal by GetRightRobot – I’ve never seen a Transformer with actual fur, but with this Beast Wars Optimus Primal I think it works pretty damn well – this was a collaborative effort with painter Encline Designs – ends Jun 16, 2013 19:00:45 PDT

I usually post Border Patrol on Tuesdays, but am a little behind schedule. Luckily, the auctions I had spotted are still available – this week I found a trio of customs that range from life-size to 1/12 scale.
This week I found three custom auctions for characters that you don’t normally see in 1/6 scale.
1/6 Star Trek Captain Kirk, Mr. Spock, and Dr. McCoy by Spenser / Nanjin – featuring clothing apps by Spenser and headsculpts by Nanjin, these Star Trek customs come with phasers, tricorders, and even McCoy’s med-kit – too bad the Captain’s chair is not included – ends May 28, 2013 18:12:15 PDT

What am I doing today? Watching Arrested Development on Netflix! I normally don’t collect action figures for live action shows, but I’d be all in for the Bluths. I’d want a banana stand playset and a stair car vehicle too. Sadly, the show doesn’t even have bobble heads.
But during my search, I found these Arrested Development paper dolls by Kyle Hilton (see all of them at Kyle’s Tumblr). He’s even got two versions of Tobias – the variant is Blue Man Group Tobias – just awesome.
“And the one son who had no choice but to keep them all together…”
Sadly, we’ve come to the last (but not least) Bluth. I saved him for last because it just felt right. Michael is the perfect foil for all of your crazy, dysfunctional Bluth family paper dolls. I’m putting together a Complete Set that collects all 10 paper dolls in one PDF. It will have all the dolls I’ve posted as of now, and a little extra something for those that take the time to download it. I’ll post it a little later tonight, but for now enjoy Michael and all his boring old nice-guyness.
