All this and more…

During a lull in my day, I decided to go looking for Stargate Atlantis action figures. My girlfriend wanted a replica of the city. That’s right, my girlfriend is going geek. :)

But on with the point, during the search I found many different and interesting action figures out on the net. For example, Duffman, the beer swilling can wielding spokesperson of Duff Beer on The Simpson’s. All your favorite Simpson’s barflies will be drawn to this play-set, recreating Springfield’s one and only watering hole, Moe’s Tavern! And look who’s dropped in to spread the word about Duff Beer (and Duff Lite!) , why it’s the exclusive Duffman action figure, available only with this set! Plug him onto the Tavern floor and he (and any other Simpson’s figures), will utter original dialog from the hit TV series!

It is searches like this that lead me to new addictions. I really want to find action figures from all of my favorite moves and show. At least the drinking ones. It was almost simultaneously that this thought entered my mind, I began to continue my search. Just thought I would share with all of you.

From the Cult Classic comes this special 2 pack featuring a new Bloody Battle Damaged Shaun figure with Winchester Rifle and his loyal friend Ed with shovel, Molotov cocktail accessory. Both figures are in the 7″ scale and are highly detailed and fully poseable. Also includes special display base of the Winchester Bar floor complete with debris and Hog Lumps!

“To The Winchester”

Walter (Special Mission) and The Dude (Hoodie) action figures are derived from The Big Lebowski movie. Are you a Lebowski achiever? Let’s hope so. After all, it would be totally “un-Dude” of you not to be. Each features an outfit with real cloth pieces (like Walter’s bandanna) and includes various movie-accurate accessories (such as The Dude’s 1980s-style mobile phone). They combine the stylized look of urban vinyl with a little Lebowski fun! This hilarious Series 2 set includes 2 individually packaged 8-inch figures (subject to change): 1x Walter 1x The Dude. Jeffrey “The Dude” Lebowski is a real laid-back kind of guy. He enjoys “bowling, driving, (and having) the occasional acid flashback.”

With our Office Space 7 inch Talking Bobblehead – Peter on your desk, every day will feel like Friday! Add to your “pieces of flair” and nudge him whenever you feel the need. The usually apathetic Peter is featured in flip-flop sandals and jeans, with a wide smile and his faithful drill (for taking down his prison cell, otherwise known as a cubicle). He speaks 3 phrases: “The thing is, Bob, it’s not that I’m lazy. It’s that I just don’t care. “Human beings were not meant to sit in little cubicles, staring at computer screens all day. “I wouldn’t say that I’ve been missing it, Bob. Collect Peter and his fellow hilarious wobblers (each sold separately) to create your own Office Space office space!

“The Princess Bride” is perhaps one of the greatest movies ever brought to life. The story of Westley, Buttercup, and friends has everything you could ever desire (Fred Savage can be debated, but we liked even him). It has swords, laughs, extra appendages, The Machine, MLT sandwiches, revenge, and one of the best swordfights in movie history. And it also features the Man in Black, who turns out to be the Dread Pirate Roberts, who turns out to be not the first (nor the second) Dread Pirate Roberts, who turns out to be Westley.

Here’s to all the wonderful people out there who make life worth living with these little “treasures.” If you find any like this, let me know. I am really thinking about building a collection of these.
