I’m selling all the rest of my Madballs here, check them out, these are all re-issues from the late 2000′s and they are really crispy. I am keeping Screamin’ Meme though, so he’s not in this lot, but you get all the rest. Skullface, Blech Beard, all of them, they are great!

Predator, 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?). mary6601

I’ve been watching DS-9 on Netflix streaming for a while now, catching up on the ones I missed back in the day and re-watching others. I didn’t really watch DS-9 attentively when it was on, preferring Voyager and TNG, that was probably an oversight on my part but at the same time I think I enjoy it more now as an adult. Anyway, Quark is one of the top characters on that show no argument about it, he helps carry the show, and is one of my favorite characters. I have a regular DS-9 action figure of him and I have a still in the box model that looks really nice that I never came around to putting together, but I don’t have this. This is a “talking” lunchbox. Who’d want to eat lunch out of a talking Farengi’s head? Even though I love Quark as much as I do, I don’t think I would…one of the more bizarre ST toys I’ve ever seen, but pretty neat looking never the less. And get this, if you replace the batteries, it talks every time you open it! The auction doesn’t specify what the lunchbox says but I hope it’s something about you getting fat or something. $15 bucks and it’s yours. Fill it with tube-grubs and a snail-steak sandwich! From aces_100. Looks really crispy!

This green one is mine. I got him from Super7 when it came out. I like him a lot, but I need to move some stuff (check out my other auctions) and I’d rather have the first or second versions anyway. The figure is in near-mint shape, it’s just been standing on top of one of my speakers the whole time. Crate and paper strip across the crate are included and are also in near mint shape. Don’t be afraid to make me an offer, I put that option there for a reason. See you at the Revelation 25th Anniversary shows this summer!

Welcome to the 3rd edition of TMNT WTF, where I post some silly-as-fuck oddities in the TMNT toyline from the 80′s and early 90′s. We saw farmer-Turtles, we had Pizzaface the crazy one-legged pizza chef, and here we have Halfcourt, the basketball playing giraffe! What does a giraffe or basketball have to do with TMNT? At least the pizza-chef, was a pizza chef and the Turtles love pizza…do they also like b-ball? I can’t remember. Well Halfcourt comes with what looks like a metal basketball and a bunch of other junk, I can’t tell what all of his accesories are, one looks like a gun of some sort, or is it a basketball pump? Is it both? Is that a manhole cover? I don’t know, but he sure is wacky. I like how he is wearing a torn basket for a necklace though. Oh, wait I see, he probably needs the pump/gun because….he is hustlin’ b-ball like Wesley and Woody and well, sometimes you gotta break out your gat on the court, right? Especially in a world full of mutants! Yeah… coltscomics seems to have the cheapest MOC Halfcourt on ebay right now, but he is also taking offers. There are loose ones but you need his freakin’ bio-card!

nights4lifeE has a neat 1984 boxed, poseabale Gizmo here, isn’t he cute? I was really scared of Gremlins when I saw it as a little kid. This one seems like the best deal, there’s a few out there for a lot more money with slightly better boxes. httpv://youtu.be/MHj4NunmVao

By 1999 Knightfall/Knightquest/Knightsend were over and Jean Paul Valley returned to being Azrael, but his version of Batman was slow to make it into the toys. I think this is the 2nd or 3rd Azbat (aka “the old new Batman”) figure. I always liked Azbats and was a little sad to see him gone. But I knew that he wouldn’t last, hell, everyone did but it was fun in the meantime! Not really sure if he won any brand new fans over that weren’t into Batman before, but it was a fun little shake-up in the Batworld for sure. Knightfall is still TOPS in my all-time Batman arcs. joseph4768 is offering a BIN of $25 or start bidding at $10.

OK, back in 1996 when The Misfits re-united, sort of, some people were excited, maybe even psyched, but after they actually saw and heard, I think the vast majority of them were let down. OK, “American Psycho” wasn’t exactly chalk on a blackboard, but was it THE MISFTS? The same band you got when you listened to “Walk Among Us” or “Earth AD”? Heck no. Well, something else that happened with 1990′s Misfits, is surprise surprise an explosion of merch, licensing and gimmicks, everything from wrestling to Hot Topic, to toys to who knows what. This is one of the lesser nauseating examples of that merchandise-boom, these action figures, that actually look like 1980′s Misfits. nadatay has the brothers here for a BIN of $80, which looks like the cheapest BIN out there for the duo. They’d probably look nice next to some of those Sex Pistols figures.
