I don't have many:

• Tetsuo (from Akira)
• Kaneda (also Akira)
• Kaneda with motorcycle
• Super Mario
• A walking box of fig newtons
• Kusanagi (Ghost In The Shell)

There may be others, but that's all I can think of.

Does anyone here have any action figure collections at all?

When I was a kid I had almost every Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles action figure, but I don’t think that counts.

WHY!?!?!? WHY did i sell all my Transformers and Ninja Turtles and GI JOE and Aliens figures!!

[Jordan]

I own 100's of GI JOES. I once had all the Heman toys, but my parents sold them with out even telling me. I even had that Heman that smelled bad, stinkator.

Reader-- you fool! you sold your childhood away

-star wars pre-rerelease of the OT (i even have the tiny matchbox ones)
-jurassic park
-lotr-fotr, which are some othe highest quality action figures i have ever seen - these things are rife with detail but the toys they made for the other 2 movies seem to be more cheaply made

I had a lot of the Johnny West figures (huh? who?) and the horse. They came with lots (12-20 maybe) of accessories, each. I used to send them parachuting. that's where you take a fishing weight and tie it to the 4 corners of a bandana and twirl it up and down up and down until you release on the up swing. at the apex POOF the parachute opens and floats down. I'd try that with the J West figures for added fun. well, I didn't know about the ball and socket jointery with hand/wrist into arm. the POOF sometimes caused such a jerk the figure plummeted with no hands. over grassy field he'd survive. over a parking lot, J West might end up crippled for life.

OH! Evel Knieval! had the sky cycle and the chopper. Boy those were fun. the launch grinder made some weird smell however

Also had the six million dollar man figure. it had a cool eye hole you could look through. I was really too old a growing boy when sw figures came out (young for eighth grade) but I joined the neighborhood kids' play with my obi-wan.

one last thing- we used to play hot wheels and one guy had a wooden fence that made a great raised roadway. sometimes in a real cool car you could pretend "jump" from one section to another say over the driveway. about that time someone would say "my car can fly" and the fence was no longer used. anytime someone says my car can fly (listening, jet-boots R2 Lucas?) you know playtime is almost up.

As far as stuff I USED to have...oh man...
-Batman (movie, cartoon, and even a couple of short-lived general DC comics figures)
-GI Joe
-a couple of the 12" GI Joe figures
-Street Fighter (these fucking kicked so much ass)
-Biker Mice From Mars (best mutated, motorcyle-riding mouse show ever)
-Mighty Morphing Power Rangers (the 12" and 8" figures)
-Star Wars (the Kenner ones from the mid-late 90s, I still have a few, methinks)
-TMNT (I had all the different series of the turtles themselves, many of the Mutations figures that changed from regular animals into the mutated forms, and most of the badguys/vehicles, and a gun that shot little pizzas)
-many of the Masters Of The Universe figures
-a ton of those old rubber WWF figures, and the plastic wrestling ring
-Spider Man (the ones based on the FOX cartoon)
-Jurassic Park (almost the entire series from the first movie, including the cheap tie-in ones that came long after the first movie, but before the second movie. The "dino-hunters" or whatever.)
I'm sure there were plenty of others, but that's all I can really remember at this time.

In college we developed this little game with a (an antique) miniature billiard table and playmobil men. the little men would advance down a marked field and the other side would need to knock them down, whereupon they would start over again, seated on the back rail. when struck, if they "hit their head hard" against the rail (or knocked off the board and to the floor,) they were taken out of play, but could sit on the side rail, cheering on their mates. there were other factors and rules that levelled the play but now that I'm thinking about it, I might actually develop this game so never mind.

playmobil men rock

I used to have a ton of Playmobil. It was awesome. I had a rally car, which was probably my favourite piece.
