I still love those cool action figures, they are absolutely decorative for your rehearsal or music room.

I have the following guys:
1. Jimi Hendrix (Woodstock)
2. Elvis 68 Comeback
4. Captain Jack Sparrow
5. Brandon Lee (The Crow)
6. Mr Miyagi (The Karate Kid)
7. Daniel-San (The Karate Kid)
8. Freddy Kruger (A Nightmare On Elmstreet)
9. Jaws (The shark *lol*)
10. Kirk Hammett (Metallica)

Only the first three are placed in my musical room, the rest sleeps in a box near my guitars...

I am still looking for a Rocky Balboa figure (Part One, the one with the grey training suite) and I wish that someone's gonna put out a Robert Johnson figure....at the crossroads :-)
 
Where do you find these? Maybe I need to start a new hobby.

I have an Alice Cooper action figure. Does it count if I haven't opened it yet and played with it? Jimi, you're gonna be as bad as Alex Leifson.

They are all over here...

Played once are the better once! Of course that counts.

That Lifeson pic is awesome! :happy
 
I have one of the Cenobites from the Hellraiser series, as well as a radio-controlled zombie that shambles and moans.
 
They never were big over here. Never had one, although my sister had a barbie or something. Me, I had my scale models of WWII fighters. Some still survive and reside in my kid's bedroom ceiling. There's a pretty nice Hurricane in 1/32 and an Avro Lancaster, and such. Ones I made when I was in highschool were pretty accurately done as well with lots of seasoning and accurate paint jobs with wears and exhaust trails and whatnot.

Hm, maybe I should build a few models one of these days again. Been decades...
 
I have a Rancor model (avatar) if that counts from Star Wars.

Build some kits deeaa, I got back into modeling quite a while ago and did some work for a magazine. Most of the modelers are adults now and there are some awesome models out there. Here is a 1/35th scale WWII Strumtiger I built back in the 90's.

That looks AWESOME. I found this of my very last project ever, was supposed to be a junkyard...never did finish it and it ended up in the bin when I dropped it all on the floor

Maybe I will get back to it some day, when I start having some more free time. As is, not enough time even for music...
 
Thats it Dee nice work indeed!! Thanks.

Robert your so vein...You do gets some action out of those veins though...:happy
 
Not really an action figure, but I have a Pee Wee Herman doll. Does that count?

Was a big fan of Pee Wee's Playhouse. Still miss Chairy and Globy, and how can I forget Miss Yvonne!. I once went to a costume party as Pee Wee.
 
As I look around my office I see my original Star Wars X-Wing pilot, Kit Fisto from the prequels, and (as of Christmas) a Red Wings Mr. Potato Head.

Only if Pee Wee is wearing a raincoat!:bootyshake Sumi:D
 
Had to have one of these on my shelf. I was a kid in the 60's. Remember this guy?

Don't have that tj, I probably should. I just wanted to have him up on the shelf keeping an eye on things. :munch:

Ah, yes--the creation of the inimitable Ed "Big Daddy" Roth of the California hot rod culture of the 1960s! I remember building a couple of those old Revell model car kits based on his stuff.
