ToyAddicts always has cool custom action figures for sale, but I really love these Custom Alien And Predator Boba Fett Star Wars Action Figures. Xeno Fett and Predator Fett look pretty awesome. I especially like Boba as a Xenomorph. I really dig oddball figures like this. Both of them come on custom cards.
If you’re a fan of CW’s Arrow or The Flash TV shows, you’ll be happy to know that they have ReAction figures for both series, with a lot of great characters available and more to come I’m sure. I especially hope they add more to The Flash line since their are so many cool villains in that series.
Since we never got the Kenner style E.T. action figures that we deserved in the 80’s, Funko has introduced some limited edition ReAction figures. There’s a 3-pack with Elliot, E.T. and Gertie and a special glow in the dark version of E.T. Turn on your heartlight and add them to your collection. If you have a soft spot for this movie, you don’t want to miss out.
Reaction Figures are retro Kenner style figures that should have been released back in the day, but weren’t. Better late than never. Now you can collect all of the Dark Crystal Figures that you should have collected decades ago. Relive all of the awesome moments from the 1982 film from Jim Henson and Frank Oz.
Executive Replicas have a whole bunch of cool 2001 accessories to go with their Frank Poole action figure. Apparently there’s no Dave Bowman yet, but it better be coming. We’re talking five versions of space suits. There’s white, green, black, violet and blue. I really love what they are doing with this line. Open the pod bay doors and let them into your collection.
Open the pod bay doors HAL… I have some cool new toys being delivered. Medicom has done an outstanding job recreating the spacesuits that Dave Bowman and Frank Poole wore aboard the spaceship Discovery. These 6.2″ action figures are exactly the kind of toys I love. Great looking toys based on great vintage movies. Look at all of that detail.
I have always loved these spacesuits. Each figure comes with alternate hands. You can pre-order them right now from Amiami. I know I’m about to. Don’t tell my wife.

QMx has unveiled two new additions to its Master Series figures. That would be Captain James T. Kirk and Commander Spock. They have over 30 points of articulation, screen-accurate clothing and amazingly realistic sculpts of the actors. They come in standard versions and limited-edition versions that include Kirk’s Phaser Rifle and Spock’s Lute. The details on these sculpts are just incredible. Collectors are going to love these.
You can preorder them over at qmxonline.com right now.
The Galactic Warfighters series is something that everyone should see. Matthew Callahan inserts Star Wars figures into realistic combat photography. This is some pretty amazing and powerful work and now a short film sheds some light into the process.
This film was produced by Joseph DiGIrolamo, who interviews Callahan and shows us how he creates these stunning images. Matthew uses Sideshow Collectible figures for these shots and they are so real looking that they will blow you away.

Remember that scene in spaceballs where Dark Helmet was playing with action figures? Well, someone went ahead and made these figures for real and they are pretty awesome. I just wish I could buy these. This amazing set was made by Blayne Scott for a friend. I know. I wish I had a friend like Blayne too. They were sculpted over the course of 6 months using pieces of Star Wars figures and of course lots of sculpting techniques.
You can check out a whole gallery of images here. I can only hope that someone makes these for the masses. I love oddball figures like this.
