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
In AFP’s Border Patrol, we scour active eBay auctions for customized action figures that you won’t want to let slip by!
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.
Hot Toys fell a little behind on its original schedule for some of these figures, but it looks like it’ll be worth the wait. I can’t get over how humongous the Hulk is – I’ve seen quite a few pictures of him prior to this but nothing that drove home his size like this. I’ve got him and Catwoman on my list. How about you?
As the Iron Man Mark VII Collectible Figurines are continuing to be shipped out, we would like to share a sneak peek with you today on the products coming next in the near future.
Be expected to see Catwoman from The Dark Knight Rises, Hulk from The Avengers, Mark VII Collectible Bust from Iron Man 3, Barney Ross from The Expendables 2, and Snake Eyes from G.I. Joe Retaliation!
The latest Iron Man offerings from Diamond Select Toys are nearly here, and the Mark 42 and War Machine are very impressive. I’ve been waiting for them to reveal their Iron Patriot, and am wondering if the other figure in the second wave of Marvel Select Iron Man 3 figures will be another armor altogether or if it will be something like a Gwyneth Paltrow headsculpt in the Mark 42 armor.

I know. If you collect Marvel Legends you’ve already got a metric ton of Captain America figures – but it’s Memorial Day, and instead of coming up with original content for you, I’ve been thinking about friends and relatives who’ve served their countries. But back to the subject at hand – as I considered each of these versions of Cap, I found it interesting that they’ve all got guns. When I was a kid, Cap was the Boy Scout on the Marvel side like Superman was at DC Comics. While Steve Rogers could use the shield as a weapon, its first use was always as a defense for Cap and his allies.
