Identify Help

Im curious to know if there is any significant difference between the two figurines. the mcfarlane spider-man released in 2004 and also 2005 was toy biz made in the classic satin red and blue finish. while the hasbro mcfarlane reboot was recasted and released four years later in 2008 but sporting a lower quality gloss red and black finish. personally I'm a fan of either color scheme on the mcfarlane/campbell figure. I've searched and really haven't found out too much information that separates the two besides the fact that toy biz was the original cast while hasbro was the recasted version, and the differences in color. but is there really a difference that sets them apart from each other? is the recast a spitting image of the original? is ...[See More]

So I hope someone can help, I'm trying to find some figures I had when I was a kid. Let me explain first why this is so important. When I was 3 I was very ill and was bed ridden for about 3 months. Within that time an uncle who shortly thereafter was murdered gave me the 2 figures which I always carried with me. Then when I was in second grade a bully ended up breaking both figures (I mean smashing them to pieces) and I never saw them again. Now the toys were already used when I got them in 1987 so they could be from late 1970s or up to 1987. Let me describe them.

The first figure was a 2 to 3 inch Native American, he had at least 7 points of articulation, the head turned left and right each shoulder up and down, legs at waist up and down,...[See More]

Here's a new post, from over at Dinosaur Dracula, that I thought people here at Figure Realm might enjoy; it's about five horribly disfigured/messed-up toys Matt bought at a flea market recently:...[See More]

Amongst other toys, I picked up a couple of Supermen at one of the local thrift stores Saturday, a JLU one, and this one. He's made by Mattel, dated 2012 (so he should be a recent release), and stands six inches high. I can't recall seeing him on the pegs at the stores, and I spent some time looking on Google and eBay, but I can't find a single image of him. Basically, I'd like to know what series/wave he's from, and any other information you might know about him.

I remember hearing about and seeing figures from an old vintage toy run but can't seem to recall it's name. I don't really remember what these guys look like but what I remember is that they were made so that if they were facing the tv when the theme song of the show they were made to go with is playing they would react and light up(and maybe do other things to). As far as I know this was the only toyrun that would do this so even though that description is rather vague hopefully one of you will be able to identify the toy run ...[See More]

I'm curios what some toy runs are that you guys know of that I might not even have heard of. Back in the golden age of action figures a lot of pretty cool toys got lost in the flow. I started thinking about this after reconnecting with my love for the food fighter toy run, I forgot how cool those guys were!!! They were a funky idea and had a tone of detail in the sculpts(although the paint was a bit lacking)...[See More]

Anybody know who or what this is? It's yet another mystery figure that I got in a big bag of toys from one of the local thrift stores. I've done a number of Google image searches with phrases like "tentacle toy", but, I haven't had any luck (and I'm quite tired of getting tentacle porn results). It's an unarticulated mini figure that stands about 2-3/8" (6 cm) tall. There's no manufacturer copyright date molded on it, so I don't know who made it or when. At first, I thought it must be a Pokemon, but that doesn't seem to be the case. I strongly suspect that it's a character from a similar video game or anime though. Digimon, Ben10, etc?...[See More]

As I am won't to do, I picked up a big bag of girls toys from a thrift store on Friday. I've been able to identify most of the items on my own, but there are several that still have me scratching my head, and I was hoping perhaps one of you could help. I realize most of you probably don't buy girls toys, but perhaps a sister/cousin/daughter/etc. had them.

Anybody know what the larger doll on the far left is? She was made by Mattel in 2008 and is about 7-8 inches tall (depending on whether or not you're counting her hair or not). You can't see it in the photo, but there's a rubbery transparent plastic rod projecting out of her back, that...[See More]

I just found this old rock lords commercial and started wondering what other cool old commercials there were
