Asian Figure

Just playing around with my action figures and trying to use Crazy Talk to make a movie clip. I'm not sure what this figure is. I ordered him directly from Hong Kong. I got him for $5! I am always looking to add diversity to my collection and I think it's kind of cool having figures that no one else has. Like I said before, I'm an action figure collector on a budget.

The clothes he's wearing came from several $5 figures I picked up on clearance. The necklace I made with a charm from Walmart. Pretty cool figure for just $5. The same type figure now runs about $17, which still isn't bad. The articulation is around 30 pts. There were two figures marked X-Boy for sale when I picked him up. There was a Caucasian figure and this Asian figure. The Caucasian figure was always marked at a higher price, which suits me fine since I have more than enough Cacasian figures. I'm trying to diversify. 

POWER TEAM ELITE PEACEKEEPERS

As a one-sixth collector on a budget, I have to be on the look-out for quality figures at a reasonable price. I have not found a better figure for the price than Power team Elite. I probably have a lot of these figures. If you can find them, you can get the basic figure for five dollars!

The figure above came decked out in military fatigues. I kit bashed him with some of Ken's clothes from the local Walmart. The new Ken clothes are cut a little larger which works perfect with the more muscular action figure bodies and they cost about five dollars.

Here is a couple of pictures of the figure wearing his original outfit. Oh, and my former cat. Don't worry, he's doing just fine with a wonderful family just down the road.

I am the most frugal collectors I know. I'll post my tips on where to find  the best bargains next post.

Later,
