Oh, toys!

So, [livejournal.com profile] lizardbeth_j alerted me to the fact that there is a Tia Dalma figure (from Pirates OTC) at the Disney store. So, in need of yet another kickass female action figure (GIRL FIGURES. YAY.), I hied myself over to fascistville Mayfair. And found that there is not only a Tia Dalma figure, but a Barbossa one, and of course Jack, Will, Liz and Davy Jones.

Jack, Will and Liz figures are... sadly made. They're ugly, compared to the three-inch versions (which I already have, and Elizabeth -- as has been noted -- is the only one of the three to stand well, keep her hat on AND hold her swords... Tsk, boys, you're letting the male sex down, there. Stand up!).

But, otoh, Barbossa is lovely. And awesome. And his HAT COMES OFF.

Replicarter is currently wearing it, while Tia and the Captain stare in disturbance. I suspect I really do need to get a digital camera, shortly. Because. Dude. Action figure theatre, man.

Anyway. Tia Dalma's figure wins over EVERYONE because she comes with a big jar of eyeballs.

Best. Ever.

Yes. And the 8" figures don't appear to be on the Disney store site. I may have to scan the back of the package (which is ok, I want the insert, since it's a really pretty dragony thing)
