Arnold: Commando 1986 GIANT
/ 407 days agoPredator, The Running Man, Terminator/T2, Total Recall, True Lies (yes), etc. are all great movies that I love, but MY #1 Arnold movie is Commando. Classic doesn’t even being to describe it. While it’s wildly inappropriate for a child that age, I first saw it when I was about 8 probably and I immediately wanted to dangle a dude off a cliff and then ruthlessly shoot an island full of paramilitary Latinos. Doing anything with Rae Dawn Chong didn’t occur to me since I still thought girls had cooties at that point. OK, and I didn’t even know what a Latino was back then either (I wasn’t even from America!) but I wanted to shoot something. Not too healthy but, HEY, I didn’t so fuck it. Here is a “giant” 16″ boxed figure of Arnold in his “d-day” get-up when he finally arrives on the dude’s private island/army camp to get his little pre-teen Alyssa Milano back, god dammit. Love the back of the packaging too! Kid’s cut this out and save! I would! (or not because I wouldn’t want to ruin the packaging! nerd!) a starting bid of $90 seems steep but someone else is trying to sell a slightly better conditioned box for $800, and this has free shipping so…shoot ‘em if you go ‘em (what?).
