Nightmare Before Christmas ReAction

Today we look at three more ReAction figures by Funko based on the Nightmare Before Christmas. These are good looking figures, but are perhaps too well detailed to fit the ReAction vibe. Check out my video review for my thoughts on Oogie Boogie, Wolfman, and Clown with the Tear Away Face.

Kane - Alien ReAction Figures

Today we take a look at two figures of Kane from the classic Sci-Fi movie Alien. Kane with Chestburster and Kane with Facehugger are figures that allow you to recreate dramatic and horrific moments from Alien.

Dark Crystal Reaction & Blind Bag Mini Figure Madness

Today's Action Figure Adventures review is Jen and the Landstrider from the Dark Crystal  Reaction line. Another fun ReAction series based on a classic 80's movie. This set is part of the Summer Con series. There will be other Dark Crystal figures available on single cards.

Had to share this episode of Blind Bag Mini Figure Madness. My buddy Pixel Dan is rocking his SEO Toy Review t-shirt! Keep up the fun videos Dan & Stina.

ReAction Gremlins Figures by Funko

Finally got my hands on the Gremlins ReAction figures from Funko. My review takes a look at Gizmo, Billy Peltzer, Mogwai Stripe, and Cinema Gremlin. I love all the 80's goodness we keep getting from ReAction.

Ripley, Power Loader, & Queen Alien - ReAction Aliens 3-Pack

Sorry I didn't get this posted to the blog yesterday... check out the ReAction Aliens 3-Pack containing Ripley, the Power Loader, and the Queen Alien. This is a really fun set and continues the ReAction line based on the classic adventure/Sci Fi Aliens franchise started with the figure based on the first film.

T-1000 Officer and John Connor T2 ReAction Figures - Funko

Today's Action Figure Adventures video focuses on John Connor two versions of the T-1000 ReAction Figures from Funko's line based on T2: Judgment Day. I've been loving the Terminator figures and I was really happy to find these guys. Check out the T-800 arm that comes with John as an accessory in the video review below.

T-800 and Sarah Connor Terminator 2 - ReAction

Forgot to post this yesterday, but I picked up the T-800 and Sarah Connor from the T2 ReAction line from Funko. I'm really happy with the T-800 and it just reminds me how awesome Terminator 2: Judgment Day really is.

T-1000 Officer and Patrolman - Terminator 2 ReAction

I picked up the T-1000 Officer with a hold in his head as well as the regular and frozen T-1000 Patrolman figures from the T2 ReAction line. Check out the video review below for details.

T-800 Terminator - ReAction

The T-800 is a classic Sci-Fi/Action movie bad guy. The Terminator still holds up today and back in the day only got the wacky Kenner figures based on T2. Here Funko tries to capture the magic of the original film with there ReAction line.

This isn't the only version of the Terminator that Funko has released. But I feel this on is more iconic and captures Arnold's likeness a little better, but that might just be due to the sunglasses. He's dressed in a leather jacket, gray shirt, tan pants, and boots.

 The T-800 Terminator comes armed with two different weapons he using to try to kill Sarah Connor in the film.

I wonder if they'll ever make a Time Traveling Terminator figure. Ya know, Arnold in the buff. They'd have to do some sort of interesting shadow paint effect on the figure to hide his junk. Maybe Terminators are like Ken dolls in the front?

Fifth Element ReAction figures

The Fifth Element is a movie that I've scene dozens of time over the years. If I flipping channels and it's on... I'm hooked. So when Funko announced Fifth Element figures as part of their Reaction line I knew I needed to get them. The line included Lee-Loo, Korben, the Diva and handful of other characters.

Sarah Connor - Terminator ReAction

Sarah Connor, possibly the most important person in the Terminator universe has been cast in plastic as part of the ReAction line from Funko. I actually picked up this figure last summer at the FYE store event I was a part of. I didn't want to flood Action Figure Adventures with ReAction posts, so I still have some of these to show off.

Sarah is sculpted with her big 80's style hair and has nice paint apps on her striped shirt. I can't say she's the most exciting figure, but she grows up to be a real bad ass in T2. She's a pretty basic figure with no accessories, but I felt like I need someone for the Terminator and Kyle to fight over.

Kyle Reese - Terminator ReAction

I've had Kyle Reese in my collection for a while now, but just had not posted about this Terminator hero. Kyle is the soldier sent back in time to protect (an impregnate?) John Connor's mother. Did John know this... that he had to send this guy... because it's weird.

This figure is dressed in a gray shirt, blue jeans, sneakers, and a soft goods trench coat. I was glad to see a fabric accessory in this line. I kind of hope at some point we get a vinyl cape on someone to give it the 70's Kenner feel.

Kyle Reese comes with a shotgun and a pistol. It's also cool that they sculpted a lot of good details on this figure. The striped texture on his shirt is sculpted in and I like that they included the bandages from when he is injured. Like most of the ReAction figures he don't real capture the likeness of the actor, but they aren't trying to.

The Karate Kid - ReAction Figures

I don't collect all the ReAction figures, but I do collect a lot of them Out of the Karate Kid line I needed Mr. Miyagi and Daniel. I just couldn't figure out which Daniel to get, so I got slave labor and karate champion Daniel figures. These guys, staying true to the line feature articulation and sculpting similar to the toys of the 70's and 80's. I was impressed with some of the paint details on these guys.

Ripley - ReAction Alien

Ellen Ripley is the strong female lead from the classic horror / sci fi film Alien. This figure from the ReAction toy line is made using a mold sculpted by Kenner back in the day. Parents revolted over the first Alien toy released by Kenner because it was too scary. Hell, the movie was rated R. So these 3 3/4" figures were never released.

Ripley is dressed in a dark blue jump suit with white sneakers. Ripley has a few details inclduing her white shirt under the jumpsuit and red arm patch. She has curly dark brown hair and comes with a light blue flame thrower. I want to know when were are going to get the sexy Ripley in her underwear figure?

George McFly - BTTF ReAction

Today's post is about George McFly from the original Back to the Future movie. This ReAction figure is of George in high school in 1955. George is dressed n a gray shirt and tan jacket. It's neat how his shirt is sculpted half tucked in and half untucked. He's also got his long-ish hair combed across his forehead. George has an interesting stance, he sort of leans to the side a bit.

Hello McFly!

Display Update: AFA Collection ReAction

 At leas a year ago, maybe longer, I bought this shelf at a yard sale. It's pretty much perfect for displaying 3 3/4" figures. I couldn't figure out what to display on it though. I have too many GI Joe or Star Ward figures. When the ReAction line was announced I knew these would be the toys to "live" on this shelf.

I still need an Alien figure to open up, but I have most of the Alien, Terminator, Goonies, and Back to the Future figures. I also have the Rocketeer some where, but he didn't make it on the shelf yet. I guess I need to order a SDCC Sloth figure. I still haven't seen a regular Sloth around here. Eventually the figure will have to share compartments, bu for now there's room to grow. I'm keeping just a few of my favorite figures carded as well.

Marty McFly - BTTF ReAction

ReAction Marty McFly is on the blog spot today. Marty is pretty generic looking. Of course this orange "life preserver" vest lets you know who he is, but hi head sculpt doesn't look anything like Michael J. Fox.

In addition to his vest, Marty is wearing jeans and white sneakers. His one accessory is a little navy blue skateboard.  I actually broke one set of wheels off my board trying to find out if they spin. THE WHEELS ON THE SKATEBOARD DON'T ROLL!

I was having some fun with Doc, Marty and my Time Machine toy. The scale between the figures and Delorean are close, but not perfect.

This is heavy, Doc!

Doc Brown - BTTF ReAction

The ReAction line of vintage style toys are finally becoming readily available. I bought a whole bunch a few weeks back at the FYE Event, but I didn't get to feature any of them here on Action Figure Adventures yet. This Doctor Emmett Brown figure is based on the scene in the mall parking lot where Doc shows Marty the Time Machine.

 These ReAction figures are made by Funko and Super7. They are done in the old Kenner style, and to save paying likeness rights (just like in the old days) The face sculpts don't really capture the likeness of the actors who played the characters exactly. Doc is dressed in white cover-alls with brown shoes. The main detail that makes it obvious that this is a figure of Doc Brown is his crazy mop of white hair.

Even though the ReAction figures have a limited amount of detailing, there are still some nice touches on this figure. Doc Brown has a cool little tool belt with a wrench sculpted in it.

Doc's one accessory is the remote control he used to drive the Time Machine. This photo doesn't really do the remote justice.  It's a really nice accessory, but it's got a goofy handle sculpted on the back to allow Doc to hold it.
