A while back one of our members from Hong Kong sent me a PM asking if I wanted to check out some "action figures" that his company manufactures. He has'nt posted in a long while since the whole "English Only" dispute but he and I have talked on the phone and I've purchased about two dozen of his action figures since he gave me that first one for free.

Check them out on this ebay auction . His website crashes a lot and is down now but the pics on this auction show some of the great detail. This is not his auction BTW. I just got those two new Figures and I'm waiting for a new figure that he says is really gonna suprise me. I think these are so cool and he thought it was cool to show them off to a MARINE. I showed these to some of my buddies and we all think they are outstanding,especially in the accuracy of the mission and MOS specific gear.

Yeah,I know they're not cheap and are not really toys but they look cool sitting in the display cases that were formally occupied by my diecast cars.

Wow, I thought some gundam models were impressive until I saw these things...sheesh; I think the next versions should have functional weapons, lol!

Hey man I dunno they don't seem realistic to me. There faces are too pretty to be marine, as in they use PIMPLE CREAM!

Ah GI Joe for adults

There are a few companies that make them, the most famous are made by Dragon Models.

a company called medicom also makes some great, realistic, and very expensive action figures as well. ive always wanted one of the bruce lee figures but they are way too expensive and very hard to get.

It's so cute when grown men admit to playing with dolls *cough* I mean, action figures.

Looks like the male version of those porcelain dolls that are meant to be displayed.

Do they come with their own tanks you can put them in. So you can let them drive it. And you can display that?

They look really cool. But I have a thing against military toys near my kid (he got a Max Steel and a G.I, Joe for his b'day anyway), but I would kill to get one of these dolls:

Anyway, astronauts, aliens and monsters are also of my liking. I love werewolf dolls

These are not toys you play with but collectibles and are worth a lot of money. Incredibly talented artist makes them. Michael Lau makes some of the most creative vinyls.

Most impressive detail. Actual identifiable hardware, even MagPulls. Are the electronic ear audio enhancement/suppression integrated to comms now being issued MOS?

I have a good collection of these. Firetrucks
