1988 marked the debut of Kenner's sports themed action figure line ,Starting Lineup.I think Kenner played It smart with these figures,giving them just enough articulation to please the kiddos while still giving them the appearance of a statue for the older sports memorabilia collectors.Many of the figures shared similar head and body sculpts but some of the more well known stars got their own distinct head sculpts. You gotta give It to Kenner for taking a chance and really for being the catalyst behind the whole sports themed action figure movement. Kenner's run would last 13 years ,a span that see releases of NFL,NBA,MLB,NHL,Boxing,Golf and Track & Field action figures!</div>

<li>Relatively cheap for a vintage figure</li>
<li>A nice way to introduce kids to sports</li>
<li>Collectibles that can be played with or kept in packaging for safe keeping</li>
<li>Displays nicely loose or carded</li>
<li>A gazillion players to choose from! </li>

Put aside the fact that my Ming figure is in dire need of some Grecian 5,and take in its simple awesomeness!The late 70's and early 80's were laden with these types of minimalistic action figures,thanks to Kenner's Star Wars figures and Mattel.I'm assuming Mattel saw Kenner's successful toy design and followed suit.Ming has 4 simple points of articulation at the arms and legs.Surprisingly there is no head articulation.In fact,the whole line might be the same. I think maybe Flash has head articulation.But remember,articulation isn't what grants you a spot on 5.Points.And .Proud.On contraire .Around these parts,ya gotta have 5 points or less.Why do you need a Flash Gordon - Ming figure In your life?</div>

<ul>
<li>These figures are nostalgia at it's best!You can't look at one without a ton of childhood memories flooding your memory banks!</li>
<li>Colorful assortment of figures in the line and I believe there are only 9 In the set. </li>
<li>Pretty durable for a pre 80's figure.I guarantee something will break on your GI Joe If dropped from a top shelf.Not the case with these guys.</li>
<li>While many of the figures in this line are a bit on the pricey side,Ming here isn't. A decent Ming figure with good paint will run you anywhere under 10 bucks.</li>
<li>A great way to start off your vintage collection.</li>

I flipped because I thought this was the bigger scaled version.The listing didn't provide any size descriptions,only that the figure was a little dusty and needed a bath.I didn't pull the trigger right away,but quickly shot a message over to the vendor.The seller replied promptly only to verify what I had suspected all along.This was, indeed, the 6 " version.I still wanted It because size aside,this was truly an iconic 80's figure.It was a smaller version of the one that I owned as kid and I just had to have It.Surprisingly ,the seller accepted my offer of 9 dollars,so a total of about 11 bucks shipped!The figure was pretty beat up and full of a white substance,which could have been anthrax for all I know.But a nice warm soap and water bath made my eleven dollar purchase look like a million bucks!The same detailed airbrushing and silver paint apps are as prevalent on Lil G as they are on Big G.I think the smaller scale Is ideal when It comes to picking up larger than life characters like Godzilla,King Kong,Transformers etc. It's easier to build around them,plus ,they are cheaper. I'm a Dollar Tree visit away from picking up some double headed dragons to duel It out with my new Godzilla fig ;)<br />

How can anyone who grew up In the 80's say no to these three adorable faces.I sure couldn't. I've been needing something different to spruce up my 80's shelf of collectibles and I didn't want to overcrowd It with just your run of the mil action figures. I needed some fresh faces to represent that awesome era that was the 80's,and In these three colorful Care Bears I have just that!Care Bears are filled with personality,and It shows,literally.On their tum ,tums.I'm not big on the teddy bears ,but a 3 inch plastic, pose-able bear with a hair do Is right up my alley. You can't resist playing with these little guys once you have them in-hand.These came to me pretty dinged up,but I can live with that.They're still pretty damn epic. </div>

<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>For a vintage item from a popular franchise,the set can be had for a relatively low price on Ebay </li>
<li>Instantly go back in time every time you look at these guys on display</li>
<li>Your girlfriend will like them,too!</li>
<li>Accessories like skateboards and mini cars feature rolling wheels and foot pegs for interchangeability! </li>
<li>Everybody loves the Muppets!</li>

Buzzcut has a swivel waist and two points of arm articulation,one at the shoulder and a separate one for the saw equipped arm. Buzzcut Is the best figure of all six sets in my opinion.<br />

Battle Stryker Isn't far behind Buzzcut as far as awesomeness goes.I'm really digging the multiple,robotic arm theme going on here.In fact I think an entire team of soldiers similar to Stryker,with multiple cybernetic arms and legs would make for a kick ass comic book! I don't know If you take requests Orniphus,but how about drawing that up for me ;)Anyways,Stryker features waist and arm articulation,allowing him to aim any one of his three equipped firearms. </div>

The first thing that came to my mind when I first laid eyes on these figures In a local hobby shop recently,were the old GUTS mini figures,which were also a product of Mattel back In the mid to late 80's.The one difference that I noted was in some of the cut joints,allowing for certain parts of the sculpt to be posed and played with.The second thing to come to my mind was the 90's era of comics, with big haired protagonists who tended to look more like 80's Metal bands on steroids.Remember X-Force?The card art gives off an X-Men vibe,and understandably so as the artist and creator of Cyberforce Is none other than <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marc_Silvestri">Marc Sylvestri</a>.Marc Sylvestri penciled the spin off Wolverine comics from 1990-1992. Cyberforce,however,was an Image comic and from what I've read,a pretty controversial one.Here's a <a href="http://imagecomics.wikia.com/wiki/Cyberforce">link</a> to the back story as I'm pressed for time and need to get right into reviewing the figures.Each set Is color coded.This one being Code:Purple.<br />

The first thing you'll notice about these figures Is that they are very fire arm heavy.I really dig that about these guys.Very reminiscent of characters like Cable and Bishop.None of these figures have head movement.Instead they emphasize movement In their weaponized arms and waist.The paint on them Is pretty immaculate and the sculpts are nicely detailed with uniform creases,holsters and muscle tone showing nicely.Not pictured are the peg holes on the bottom of their feet.I guess there were also plans on vehicle and play set releases as stated on the card back.They also display and stand up easily.No tipping or falling over,although some of the sets I saw had most of the female figures with permanent stands attached.I am a serious opponent of permanently attached stands. </div>

That's pretty much the only knock I have against them,other than that,for what they are,they are decent little figures.<br />
<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>80's themed pop culture icons</li>

<li>Wide variety</li>
<li>Pretty durable for a contemporary product</li>

Joe or Marvel,though,instead they were all Star Wars themed figures.I remember picking up Chewbacca,C3PO and Luke.I've since parted with those but throughout my collecting years,I've had many-a -Marvel Mini come and go.The Snake Eyes I acquired via trade with fellow blogger Jason Vorhees,who seems to be M.I.A. of late.Hopefully that will change as his blog was one of the better ones out there.Come on back J!The Punisher mini came over from John's shelves over at Robot Monster Space Hero along with an Indiana Jones.When you talk about collect-ability,this line should quickly come to mind.There are thousands of different characters available to choose from representing the Star Wars,G.I. Joe,Transformers and Indiana Jones franchises!The nice thing about these figures Is that they are semi-articulated and can do cool things like point their weapons In certain directions and turn their heads ,making them ideal for kids who like a little pose-ability with their figures. I must admit to not being the biggest fan of mini figures and have recently gotten rid of most of them.Snake Eyes and Punisher,however,will be staying with me ;)<br />

I've made It a point to snatch these figures up whenever I have the chance to because they're just that cool IMO.Even without the hyper-articulation,Hasbro has put out a decent and affordable product that should be available to the majority of us toy collectors who refuse to drive for miles and miles to buy some exclusive action figure that won't even be on the pegs when you finally do get to your closest TRU ,45 minutes later.Now ,my good friend and founder of the Toy Swamp <a href="https://plus.google.com/u/0/communities/111283318017497985612">https://plus.google.com/u/0/communities/111283318017497985612</a> Brother Midnight just checked out his local Family Dollar and found a row of empty pegs,but I'll keep my eyes peeled to see If they release these bad boys anywhere else.I'm thinking Big Lots and Dollar General(who know owns Family Dollar) should have these in stock sooner or later.Now on to the figure...<br />

Right off the bat,just by looking at the figure inside the packaging you'll notice that his helmet seems to be removable.This Is confirmed once out of the packaging.Thank god because I would have been more than ticked had his helmet been permanently attached to the head sculpt with his hairline partially showing.The paint on this one Is all right,but you gotta be careful when buying these online as some of them do have minor paint issues.I was able to inspect mine in hand before purchasing,but being that this was the last one on the pegs,I probably would have picked It up anyways, bad paint and all.</div>

This Loki Is definitely based on Tom Hiddleston,the actor who plays Loki In the Avengers live action film.This becomes apparent upon removing of his helmet.I will say that for a villain,his facial demeanor could have been a little more menacing.</div>

The sculpt for this version of Loki Is awesome and while his hands aren't really molded to hold much,the left arm Is partially bent to give him the ability to hold up his helmet or cast a crippling spell!</div>

The cape Is molded out of a hard plastic,similar to Thor's from the same line,and really looks great.You would think that these caped figures would have balance issues but on the contrary,these fockers stand pretty damn sturdy.We're not dealing with cheap plastic here either guys,these figures are solid! Marvel Universe plastic Is somewhat soft in comparison.</div>

If so, what exactly was their beef with them because I'd really like to know.On more than one occasion I've stumbled across posts with their fair share of Ewok rants but I never stayed long enough to get to the heart of the subject matter.Personally I loved the Ewoks in ROTJ and always loved the way the figures looked.Thanks to Buzz(Kevin) over at Action Figure Adventures,I am now a proud owner of Chief Chirpa. I can't ,off the top of my head,remember any specific Chief Chirpa scenes from the movie but as a whole I always thought that Ewoks rocked!I believe most of the Ewok figures had removable hoods and each had a distinct look to them.I recently read that Chief Chirpa was released In a light Gray and an off White variant.Not really sure what mine Is although I'm leaning towards off white.Below are 5 reasons to make It a point to go out and grab up a couple of Ewok figs for your collection! <br />
<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>Star Wars figures are iconic,even the not so popular ones</li>
<li>Great for army building</li>
<li>Switchable/removable hoods</li>
<li>Size makes them perfect for office and work display</li>
<li>Makes for great outdoor pics </li>

<li>Portability,as a kid that was huge</li>
<li>Trade-ability,again,as a kid this was huge </li>

I made It a point to sit and watch.I remember watching the old live Spider-Man and Captain America series as well,but It wasn't until I saw these bad boys hanging off the pegs at a local CVS pharmacy, that I would start to obsess over any and everything related to Marvel.My first recollection of owning any of Mattel's Secret Wars figures was of Captain America,but I'm not sure If I found him somewhere or If I bought It carded.He was definitely the first figure from the line I ever owned.The second?Dr.Doom!My mom and I would take walks,frequently,to the store for little odds and ends and on one visit to a local CVS pharmacy I was lucky enough to find Dr.Doom! I'm surprised I didn't fall into a sewer with a missing manhole cover because I read that card back and looked at the figure inside that packaging the whole walk home.I needed to know more about this "Secret" war going on between some of my favorite comic book heroes!I quickly got home and tried decoding what was going on by somehow piecing together the shield lenses to try to get some sense of what was going on,but ultimately succumbed to my imagination and created my own little secret war between Captain America and Dr.Doom.It was later on that I would discover the Secret Wars series of comics and realize that one really had nothing to do with the other.There was no Daredevil or Baron Zemo in the comic version and the story arcs were different. Didn't matter, though, because the figures rocked all the same.Needless to say these are some of my favorite items, currently, In my collection. They've been a mainstay and will continue to be for a long time, and here are my 5 reasons why ;)<br />

While sporting a little less than 5 points, each of them is posed in a unique way, armed and ready to do battle. Any kid looking to take their Marvel adventures on-the-go could easily do so as most of these miniature figures measure about 1 inch and a half, give or take, and are portable enough to stuff inside your pocket ,stashed for future play sessions. While some of them have their corresponding weapons, Cap with his shield and Punisher with his small arsenal, all accessories are attached and cannot be removed, which is a good thing when your dealing with figures this size. Although, I must say that a removeable shield, at this scale, would have been pretty ef-ing awesome !The Toy Biz miniatures are easily distinguishable from the newer released Hasbro figs because of their height, heftiness and die - cast sculpts. Safe to say you didn't want to piss off a friend who just so happened to be holding a Toy Biz die-cast Apocalypse figure in his throwing hand. The Hasbro figures are pretty awesome in their own right, sporting decent paint apps that pail in comparison to the Toy Biz minis. Also, I have a hard time getting them to stand up when displaying or taking pics. Namely the Iron Man figure. The bright spot lies in the level of detail and addition of accessories for characters like Punisher and Captain America.You can't go wrong with Marvel miniature poseable figures and here are my 5 points to prove it.....<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>Portable</li>
<li>Poseable</li>
<li>Easier to build backdrops and dioramas for</li>
<li>Great for comparison pics next to bigger figures</li>
<li>Huge assortment of characters to choose from (Toy Biz or Hasbro) </li>
</ul>

I think It may have been either Buzzchuck from Action Figure Adventures or Jason Vorhees from My 2nd Toy Blog. Either way It's a great little figure but an extremely sad one. You see I've been meaning to find his proton pack/accessories as well as add a couple more GB's to the mix but haven't been able to. Ghostbusters figures are super expensive on Ebay and so are the accessories.So until they see a major price droppage , I'm afraid that Zeddmore will continue to fly solo. This Is actually Winston Zeddmore's sixth action figure in a Ghostbusters line that began way back in 1986!The final line of figures released in 1991 I believe,after a long and successful run.This version of Winston Zeddmore came with a ghost that would squirt ice cold water on the figure, revealing pink slime stains all over Winston's uniform.The great thing about this "Slimed Heroes" wave is that they are actually recasts of the original,1986 line of Ghostbusters figures.<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>Based on popular live action 80's film and cartoon series!</li>
<li>cool "slimed" gimmick when wet with ice cold water .Mine doesn't work anymore :(</li>
<li>Same mold as the original 1986 line of Ghostbusters figures</li>
<li>Cool accessories If you can manage to find them or a complete/carded figure</li>
<li>sturdy and easy to stand/display</li>
</ul>

<br>
<ul>
<li>Anything "Star Wars" related rocks!</li>
<li>Makes cool sounds and lights up</li>
<li>Not as expensive as more articulated versions,but just as cool</li>
<li>Blends in with all lines of 3 3/4 Star Wars figures</li>
<li>It's R2!</li>

How In the world can I segue from "80's action figure icon ,Panthro", to a horrible looking piece of one dollar plastic? Easily. You see, this is what 5 Points And Proud Is all about. One day you'll see greatness and the next some generic action figure that fits the 5 points of articulation or less, profile. The truth is, this generic military figure has very little reason to feel proud . In fact it wasn't the figure ,but the riot gear accessories that drew me in for a closer look, while skimming the Dollar Tree toy aisle with my daughter yesterday. Check out the megaphone and the battering ram, two accessories that are rarely seen packaged with modern day Joe figures. And while the swiveling cannon is not exactly a "HAL" laser, It's still pretty cool looking. The riot shield is amazing and would be perfect for a custom Super Trooper figure. So yeah, technically this is a blog about action figures, but today the accessories get all the glory, and here are my 5 points to prove it!<br />
<ul>
<li>1 f#$^*!# dollar!</li>

While I am not a ginormous Thundercats aficionado, I can't deny the cool concept of feral feline/human hybrids with martial arts ability! Of the four main characters, Panthro is easily my favorite. IMO, certain figures can get away with limited articulation depending on the popularity of the characters they represent. These were a little more expensive then G.I. figures were which Is probably why I never collected, but always wanted them as a kid. One day I'll have to hunt down Panthro's vibrant blue and red nun chucks. They really are what makes this figure! Panthro really is a neat action figure and here are my 5 points to prove it !<br />
<ul>
<li>Red eyed panther/human hybrid nun chuck wielding martial artist</li>
<li>Great dark to light blue color scheme</li>
<li>studded battle harness</li>
<li>sturdy,durable</li>
<li>Punching/nun chuck swinging gimmick </li>
</ul>

I picked him up mainly because I remembered him from playing the SNES Spawn video game. Plus Medieval Spawn needed someone's ass to kick. For a 90's figure, you would expect a little more articulation, but with a character like Overtkill, more articulation would have been...well.. overkill. I do wish they would have included a fire arm of some sort because I don't think the parking meter he comes with Is going to do much damage to an arch nemesis accustomed to fighting the forces of both Heaven and Hell. Not that a fire arm would fare any better. Getting back to the figure, Overtkill Is massive, heavy as heck and towers over most of the figures In my collection. You would think that the 4 points of articulation would take away from the overall coolness of the figure but It really doesn't. Plus, Overtkill has an awesome gimmick where his head detaches, launching like a rocket with the press of a small button on his back! These were Todd McFarlane's first line of Spawn figures to hit the market and while most were cumbersome, Overtkill wasn't. A solid action figure with minimal articulation but tons of playability, and here are my 5 points to prove it!<br />
<ul>
<li>Inaugural Todd McFarlane action figure line</li>
<li>Comes with an awesome comic, elaborating on character background</li>
<li>cool head launching gimmick!</li>
<li>Durable</li>
<li>Easy to stand and display</li>
</ul>

This blog will only cover action figures with 5 points of articulation or less so no super pose able Marvel Universe figures, no G.I. Joe's (unless they fall under the 5 points category) and definitely no modern day Transformers. <br />
I'll start this off with one of my favorite action figures in my collection, and It only has 5 points of articulation! I love this Spider-Man figure for many reasons. What better way to list them then with bullet "points"!<br />
<ul>
<li>It's Spider-Man</li>
<li>The paint apps really pop</li>
<li>$Very cheap$</li>
<li> Sturdy plastic</li>
<li>Reminds me of the 80's Secret Wars line of figures</li>
</ul>
