Action Figures

So, last night for totally random reasons, I decided to open up all my X-men action figures. They had been imprisoned within their original packaging, for I forget how many years.

And here they are breathing the free air, for the first time in their lives:

 

X-MEN

    LOL, I see you like X men! I do have a question though since I am not an action figure collector. Once they are removed from their original packaging, do they not loose their value?

      No way Wolverine would claw that boys glasses off, and give him a new scar to worry over, before he could say Wingardium Leviosa. lol

        are you mad??????
        all harry has to do is mutter something under his breath and wolverine would be in one of the three forbidden curses!!!!!
        give harry credit where it's due - you CAN'T fight magic unless it's with magic!!!!
        hmpf!

          Ah but Harry would never use the forbidden curses on anyone expect He Who Shall Not Be Named. He would not dare use it on a muggle, mutant or not. Any other spell would just delay his face shredding.

          lol

            you forget that harry is NEVER alone (despite his emo rants sometimes!) and he's ALWAYS got friends, so i can only hope that wolverine has some of his mates to watch his back because that leviosa winggardium one can get him in the back and then a quick excrusio one from snape could snap his claws in millions of pieces
            ADMIT IT MARK - harry would kick ANYBODY'S arse!!!!! He even ripped 'ole Voldemort a new one and then went and had kids with Jinny!
            (am waiting eagerly for series 2 in the potter books - harry and jinny's kids along with ron and hermione's brats ... wooohoooooo!)

                          Well if you get a chance it's awesome. Like all these fictional characters killing each other! It's an internet classic.

                          Oh I got an idea. Here are the lyrics:

                          Lemon Demon - The Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny

                          Old Godzilla was hopping around
                          Tokyo City like a big playground
                          when suddenly Batman burst from the shade
                          and hit Godzilla with a Batgrenade
                          Godzilla got pissed and began to attack
                          but didn't expect to be blocked by Shaq
                          who proceeded to open up a can of Shaq Fu
                          when Aaron Carter came out of the blue

                          and he started beating up Shaquille O'Neal
                          then they both got flattened by the Batmobile
                          but before it could make it back to the Batcave
                          Abraham Lincoln popped out of his grave
                          and took an AK47 out from under his hat
                          and blew Batman away with a rat-a-tat-tat
                          but he ran out of bullets and he ran away
                          because Optimus Prime came to save the day

                          this is the Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny
                          good guys, bad guys, and explosions as far as the eye can see
                          and only one will survive, I wonder who it will be
                          this is the Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny

                          Godzilla took a bite out of Optimus Prime
                          like Scruff McGruff took a bite out of crime
                          and then Shaq came back covered in a tire track
                          but Jackie Chan jumped out and landed on his back
                          and Batman was injured, and trying to get steady
                          when Abraham Lincoln came back with a machete
                          but suddenly something caught his leg and he tripped
                          Indiana Jones took him out with his whip

                          then he saw Godzilla sneaking up from behind
                          and he reached for his gun which he just couldn't find
                          'cause Batman stole it and he shot and he missed
                          and Jackie Chan deflected it with his fist
                          then he jumped in the air and did a summersault
                          while Abraham Lincoln tried to pole vault
                          onto Optimus Prime, but they collided in the air
                          then they both got hit by a Care Bear Stare, oooh

                          this is the Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny
                          good guys, bad guys, and explosions as far as the eye can see
                          and only one will survive, I wonder who it will be
                          this is the Ultimate Showdown...

                          angels sang out in immaculate chorus
                          down from the heavens descended Chuck Norris
                          who deliver a kick which could shatter bones
                          into the crotch of Indiana Jones
                          who fell over on the ground, writhing in pain
                          as Batman changed back into Bruce Wayne
                          but Chuck saw through his clever disguise
                          and he crushed Batman's head in between his thighs

                          then Gandalf the Grey and Gandalf the White and
                          "Monty Python and the Holy Grail"'s Black Knight and
                          Benito Mussolini and The Blue Meanie and
                          Cowboy Curtis and Jambi the Genie
                          Robocop, the Terminator, Captain Kirk, and Darth Vader
                          Lo Pan, Superman, every single Power Ranger
                          Bill S. Preston and Theodore Logan,
                          Spock, The Rock, Doc Ock, and Hulk Hogan
                          all came out of no where lightning fast
                          and they kicked Chuck Norris in his cowboy ass
                          it was the bloodiest battle the world ever saw
                          with civilians looking on total awe

                          and the fight raged on for a century
                          many lives were claimed, but eventually
                          the champion stood, the rest saw their better:
                          Mr. Rogers in a bloodstained sweater

                          this is the Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny
                          good guys, bad guys, and explosions as far as the eye can see
                          and only one will survive, I wonder who it will be
                          this is the Ultimate Showdown...
                          this is the Ultimate Showdown...
                          this is the Ultimate Showdown...
                          of Ultimate Destiny
