What Are Your Favorite Retro Gaming Figurines?

Anything that is gaming related that doesn't fit well anywhere else

I love my Castle Crashers figurine, as well as my Pip-Boy bobble head. :)

The only thing that makes me sadder than seeing sealed games is seeing sealed action figures.

The only real figuring I own isn't related to gaming. It's a figure of Bender from Futurama. I always really wanted to get a figure of Aita Tadayo from Radirgy/Radio Allergy, but I found out that such a figure does not exist. :(

Bender was in the Futurama video game, so it counts. ;)

I only have three sealed figures. One is a Brock Samson action figure, and that's because the packaging is so cool that I can't bring myself to ruin it by throwing it out. The other two are Bryan Johnson and Walt Flanagan, of Tell 'Em Steve-Dave! fame. I got the packaging signed on them, so I don't want to get rid of that either. :)

All I really have is a pile of 1UP mushrooms (plushies, vinyl, metal, etc) laying around, and of course these:

I wanted at least the first Colossus statue, but it was too expensive last time I checked.

Not gaming related but it is still kind of related to the topic.

Not sure if you guys know about Shocker Toys.

I have two original Shockini's from Shocker Toys.
I used to play Graal with the guy who started Shocker Toys years and years ago, and before the company got up and in full swing, he sent me two of the very first toys for free. One is still in the box but I can't find it at the moment and the other one sits proudly on my desk. I thought it was so cool that someone I played an online game with for years actually started a toy company. Not only that but I was honored to get two free figurines.

I'll post a picture soon.

I've been considering buying a couple of shmup related figurines for a while now, simply to make my collection look that bit better on the shelf. However the prices are :shock:

I have a few things I'll maybe put pictures of when I get my cell phone working. I'm sort of past the age where I care about playing with these things but they're nice to look at so most of my stuff is unopened.

I have a bunch of Final Fantasy 8 figures still in their original packaging. I also have a bunch of them that came together in a box that I haven't opened. I have a Rose figurine from Legend of Dragoon in its original packaging. I think I also have a Cut Man figure from Mega Man 8 unopened. They are all very authentic looking I have to say. I especially like that Rose figure

My favorite stuff is Batman related though, and those are among the only figures I have that AREN'T boxed. I have a figure of Batman from Justice League unlimited I bought in a WB store and it looks exactly like his animated counterpart. That one I opened as it's pretty easy to put him back in the box since it wasn't sealed or anything. He's standing on a small entertainment center next to my CRT tv that I use for my older gaming systems. I also have a Batman figure from Batman Beyond that is posable and looks awesome. I don't remember what happened to the box for that or if I even received one when I originally got it. I've also got a big, long box full of figures from the original Batman:The Animated Series, which will always be my favorite animated Batman series. It's got Harley Quinn in it, along with Two Face, Poison Ivy and Bats himself.

I had lots of awesome Transformers, G.I. Joes, Silver Hawks and Thundercats toys from when I was a kid that I foolishly got rid of :(

I do still have a Hot Rod transformer with the box that I got off ebay years ago. It looks very clearly used, but it still makes me happy. I loved the Transformers movie and was one of those kids who didn't mind seeing Optimus pass the torch to him. My favorite episodes of the show were actually AFTER the movie
