Does anyone have any gaming figures? I was thinking of buying a Gears of War 7" Marcus figure. I was going to buy a Hitman Agent 47 7" figure a while ago but by the time I made my mind up they had sold out.

Play.com Link (http://www.play.com/Gadgets/Gadgets/-/835/1051/-/3593973/Gears-Of-War-Series-1-7-Figure-Marcus/Product.html?searchtype=genre)

Or for pictures click here. (http://www.xbox360fanboy.com/photos/gears-of-war-action-figures-1/600522/)

I have some, actually most of them are gashapon. I have all the Soul Calibur girls they made (its funny how in the world of gashapon you usually only find girl figures.) I also have the Mega Man X and Zero models, a Monika figure from Growlanser 3, a Link action figure (sword and shield are missing) and a Eddie figure from the Megaman series. I ordered the Castlevania ones but I'm still waiting for them.

I have a Mega Man X Command Mission figure and a pokeball with a Pikachi snap together inside, also a Banjo Kazooie figure that I think had the DK racing kart with it at one time, I bought it loose from a thrift store.

I have a bunch of Gashapon.  Some from Armored Core, some from anime series later turned games.  Got a bunch of macross stuff and even some a dead or alive (kasumi) figure.

I've ordered a Kratos one for £5 on play.com (http://www.play.com/Gadgets/Gadgets/4-/3437094/-/Product.html?searchstring=kratos&searchsource=0#)  but it's not as nice as the first round of Kratos figures.

My mouse is hovering over the Marcus - Gears of War figure button. It comes out in four weeks so I'm not sure if I should order now or nearer its release. If I wait I'll probably forget or they'll run out quickly. Once again I'm thinking out loud about what I should buy... :-\ They do look quite nice though.

I see they have some 7" Zelda figures for a mere £55-70! "Highly limited to only 2,500".



Edit: I don't think my dearest mother and father would aprove of me driving a 200 mile round trip to get this. (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Metal-Gear-Solid-Life-Size-Snake-Statue_W0QQitemZ220198366764QQihZ012QQcategoryZ159QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem)

I have a 8ft long NES and 7 ft long Gameboy, they aren't really statues but they are ginormous ;)
~~NGD

Is that the one you handbuilt from wood? I remember that, it was great! Were they like a storage chest or something?

I ordered the Gears of War - Marcus and Locust figures. I can always cancel them within the next four weeks. Over here money generally doesn't get taken until the point of sale, which is usually when they dispatch the goods.

Yeah, the NES is for storage.  It is now in my game room and has my new 50" plasma sitting on top with all my game consoles on the inside :D

pics are in the link if anyone wants to take a peek.

~~NGD

That NES has to be one of the coolest things I've ever seen.

I have a lot of Gashapons of Mario stuff, and a few Mega Man figures. I would love to get all of the RE4 figs.

I have a bunch of Final Fantasy 8 figures.  I have all of the playable characters, and 4 or 5 of the summon monster figures. 

I also have a Legend of Zelda trpphy figure from back when the game was first released.  Here's a link to a picture of it:  http://www.zeldaelements.net/games_main/1/merchandise/figure_2.jpg
Mine isn't boxed though.

I got my Kratos figure today. :D Not bad considering it was bought from an off-shore website and it was dispatched on Monday. It looks good but the stand is a bit rubbish. It only has one pin to stick in his foot and his legs don't line up properly so one foot is off the ground. [Edit: It turns out his legs were stiff which is why they weren't moving. A bit of force loosened them up so now he's standing properly.]

I had a laugh at the packaging with the warning "Not for children under 3" I'm sure 4 year olds would love it.

I never actually seen one of those Zelda trophies around. I have seen a few of the Mario ones, I have on too but its kinda beat up and dirty. I recently found some old Beavis and Butt-head figures so I have all my Soul Calibur ladies closing in on them. A "this is what happens when you tick off the wrong women" type of scene.

I have alot of the original Resident Evil figures.  Most of my other figures are ones I found in the toyboxes at thrifts.  Lots of nintendo happy meal figures and such.

I have a few happy meal figures, some sonic ones from the early 90's, I also have some zelda figurines of link, zelda and ganon (link is supposed to have his sword and shield but his shield was lost long ago) that I got from a friend for free.  I guess there kind of rare, I saw the same link and ganon go for $30 together on ebay.

The Gears of War figures have finally been released some time recently.

Now should I spend £30.50 on the set of four, or should I save every penny for the car?

LINK (http://www.play.com/Gadgets/Gadgets/4-/5274434/Gears-Of-War-Series-1-Box-Set/Product.html) but it's in stock elsewhere for a lower price anyway.

Wow, I was in this exact situation about a month ago, except with Castlevania figures. I eneded up buying them cause I couldn't find them anywhere. :D

i have gannon and link action figures, they are still sealed i keep them next to my cib zelda for nes and cib zelda oot collecters edtion for n64.

If anyone comes across Phantasy Star figures let me know ;)

I have a Street Fighter Junior Akuma.
I also have two different CAPCOM VS. SNK 2 - Akuma Variant Action Figures and I'm looking for the third(white),

I have some original turtle figures, they may  not be totally considered gamin g figures,  but  hey  there were  turtle games lol

[img width=700 height=528]http://i280.photobucket.com/albums/kk163/Sparkeb/IM000543.jpg[/img]

The four figure set is now sold out everywhere I can think of, but I'm thinking of buying just the Marcus figure on its own for £8.


Other figures I'm interested in are
Hitman - Agent 47
God Of War - Kratos - Golden Fleece/Athena's Blades

Awesome, I use to love playing with Turtle figures growing up.
it is cool to see 'em again.

I don't have any game figures, unless I can get some PSO ones, but for now I do have some anime ones.

I have Space Adventure Cobra ones and an Naomi of Armitage III.

I broke down and ordered Marcus from Gears of War the other day. It should be here by Wednesday, hopefully Monday.

My Gears of War figure came today. I opened the blister pack and undid the cable ties. Then I tried pulling the figure out but it was very tight. Somehow the foot snapped off.  >:( I don't know if it was already loose or if the force needed to pull it out of the plastic was too much. I contemplated sending it back but decided I may as well just glue it. :-\

The detail is very good and it feels pretty solid. It's just a shame it's broken. I'll get pictures soon.

[img width=700 height=467]http://i102.photobucket.com/albums/m84/BrokenFlight/Both.jpg[/img]

I only have one of Bowser from Mario Kart without the cart.

I hate when they brake so quickly like that, I bought an Ivy figure and almost broke it trying to switch between her wip sword and normal one.

Very cool figures! Now don't go and get me collecting more $41t!!!  ::)

I got these in the post from ebay today. It was £19 for the bundle of 3.

[img width=700 height=466]http://i102.photobucket.com/albums/m84/BrokenFlight/ThreeFigures.jpg[/img]



First one opened:

[img width=700 height=466]http://i102.photobucket.com/albums/m84/BrokenFlight/KratosFlamingAthena.jpg[/img]



Kratos' hands fell off as soon as I touched them, and I couldn't work out how to attach the flames because the holes to fit the pins in are so small and blend in well with his forearms. I think the blades come off the flames so he can hold them in his hands.



Next was Agent 47:

[img width=533 height=800]http://i102.photobucket.com/albums/m84/BrokenFlight/Agent47Open.jpg[/img]


Lots of little pieces I'll have fun losing in the carpet. I was disappointed it doesn't have twin silverballers. The suit looked a bit dusty or rubbed.

[img width=533 height=800]http://i102.photobucket.com/albums/m84/BrokenFlight/Agent47Standing.jpg[/img]



Then Lara Croft:

[img width=533 height=800]http://i102.photobucket.com/albums/m84/BrokenFlight/LaraStanding.jpg[/img]

One eye is red and the other is smeared, like she's been crying or has hayfever. Nothing spectacular.



[img width=700 height=466]http://i102.photobucket.com/albums/m84/BrokenFlight/ThreeFiguresStanding.jpg[/img]

God almighty these characters are so boring when you put them all together. They look like extras in a cartoon or enemy characters in some beat em up...don't even get me started on no chested Lara. When was the last time Croft done the British flag....I mean really now???


Also the new TR games don't count :speechless:

Why not?


At the start of Tomb Raider Legend, I believe.

Agent 47 looks like he has down's.

I was super excited when you said you got 47 -- I was going to eye one; I wonder if they have one that doesn't look retarded?

Also, no ballers?  What's the point?

EDIT:  I ended up buying a 47; I love this guy and couldn't resist.  He didn't look as bad I guess as I originally said.  Lara on the other hand?  Someone please call the battered women's hotline...

I have ALL of the Kotobukiya one-coins for Tales of Symphonia, Tales of the Abyss, and Tales of Phantasia (including the stone versions). I need to get the larger scale ToP and ToA figures. They're releasing Lion in October.

Also have Quake II figs, the Dragon Quest VIII Play Arts (all four), tons of gashapon (mostly Mario, Zelda, Mega Man, and Dragon Quest). Earthworm Jim action figures, Mega Man action figures, Halo 2 & 3, Mega Man model kits, and video game related Hot Wheels cars. Oh and the Halo Actionclix (near complete s1). Also have some E3 and Comic Con promo figs.

My hubby collects Star Wars figs. He has sealed figs from every generation of figs ever released. Some of them he's had since he was a kid.

The only figures I have are some Pokémon ones from back in the day :)

The regular series or online? The only non online one I know of (and have) is Nei from the Sega Gals set.

I have WAY too many figures/gashapons. Some favorites include Nei from Phantasy Star 2, Arche from Tales of Phantasia (Real big) Dragon Quest 8 set of all 4 characters and Kefka from Final Fantasy VI.

Oh, and I have a huge Bahumut, but damn if I can't get it together (seen in the following pic)

http://s11.photobucket.com/albums/a170/vacrmh/Finds/?action=view&current=DSCN1733.jpg

I just got this in the mail. It was only $5 bucks :) Not bad since you don't see Darkstalkers stuff around all that much.

And if you can name the game being played in the backround you get some major points lol.

A quick google of the items and it appears to be Xenogears?

yup, my gf was playing it. I hope to play through it to one day but I got a lot of other stuff to work on right now.

So far I've got a Mega Man action figure, a Tomoko Hoshina gashapon figure, and a Ri Kohran gashapon. Yes, I love me some meganekko (http://"http://robkelk.ottawa-anime.org/meganekko/index.html")...

Oldies but goodies:

 ;D

Those look cute :)

I love the dig-dug one.  Did you make those?

Oh good grief no.  I wish!  They came in the boxes you see in the background, heavily adorned with Japanese text.   ;D  Better yet, each one came with a piece of candy that tasted like nothing I'd ever tasted before.

Maybe the candies were expired, causing the "special" flavor?

Just kidding ;)

Well, I didn't expire after eating them, so that's all that counts.   :laugh:

Wait... What year was those figures from?

2005.

Oh, for a second I thought those were fomr the 80's. Because that would make a lot more sense for that "awesome" candy taste.

I almost forgot - I do have one other I got a couple of years ago, though this was someone's homemade custom job.  I don't know if there are any "real" Katamari toys out there, but they'd be lucky if they were as awesome as this:

[img width=380 height=286]http://www.thelogbook.com/earl/hizzouse/q4-06/homsartamari.jpg[/img]
(Homsar added for the sheer surreal factor.)

Wow, looks great! That's a very talented person if he/she can make those :o

Hey, I have the entire set of Namco Collection (the ones Phosphor Dot Fossils posted pics of). The candies are pretty bitchin. They came in two flavors - ramune and lychee. I bought mine in 05. They turn up on occasion on YJA and ebay. If you're interested in picking them up, go with YJA. Even with shipping and middleman fees they'll be cheaper.

I went in with a friend and pre-ordered a few boxes of Tales of Destiny/Destiny II one-coin figures. I'll surely have the full set :D

Quoted from the birthday thread:

James: I have a whole bunch of Metal Gear Solid figures, you should be able to see them in my collection, and the kids bought me some Super Mario collector tins, with figures, but there's no photos of them yet.

EDIT: The photos show some, but not all of my MGS figs
EDIT: Now they do

Nice pictures and awesome collection overall, too! :D

Anybody know where i can find some of those Resident Evil action figures? Mainly need Nemesis and Chris. Prefer new also. My son wants them for christmas. I passed these up like 8 years ago (Before i had kids).

Wait, your younger than 8 year old wants a Resident Evil action figure?

I wouldn't go near a horror game until 2 years ago and I am 14!

All I can think of is eBay or maybe toywiz or some other site like that.

Yea he loves Resident Evil, guess he gets it from his mother because she is a horror movie freak. Her DVD collection is bigger than my video game collection. And that is just the horror movies.

What a brave woman that must be! :o

I'm a guy and I don't like horror movies at all...I think they're scary. :(

Everything I hear in German sounds scary.

Ist das wahr?

Is that a general statement, or are you referring to Sirgin's "German" flag? ;) :P

This is the German flag:
[img width=300 height=203]http://bristolflyer.com/images/germany-flag.gif[/img]

As you can see it's not exactly the same as the Belgian one. :)

To be honest I don't really like neither. I find the colors quite invasive to the eyes, I'd prefer something with some green or blue in it. :P Oh well.
