    OK, what is the weirdest action feature on a figure you own?

    I started a thread earlier about odd accessories for action figures. And it got me to thinking about the coolness of toys and kids imaginations.

    What is the weirdest action feature on something you own?

    I am personally thankful for the funky time when barnyard commandos, pee wees playhouse, and bucky o'hare were on the shelves.

    One of my favorite oddball pieces from a Nick line was Krumm.
    His action feature - You could pull his eyes off of his hands (that was where they were supposed to be) and put them in his mouth. That and he had "real stink" in his armpits - which were hairy. Crazy.



    I expect to see a bunch of Ghostbusters, Beetlejuice, and Turtles here; but there must be other grand surprises.

    Hasbro did some really odd Batman figures in their Legends of the Dark Knight line. The previous Legends of Batman line was based on real Elseworlds books and similar "Batman throughout time" concepts, but LOTDK was just freaking odd. Penguin with an umbrella made of birds, and that weird Joker who had a fake large upper torso and tiny body underneath clutching a money bag. Someone was smoking with their left hand...

      How about the Toybiz Lex Luther with "punch yourself in the face" action?. I know it wasnt what was intended, but thats what it did!

        See my post of Dr X with Toxic Gut under the other "weird toys" thread.

            I love that Krumm--^

            My Army Stimpy has puking action. Spits the stuff right out of his mouth. Which isn't really that weird, considering it's Stimpy.


            Also, He-Man Mosquitor with the blood pumping in his chest is pretty neat. Although also not that weird considering he's a mosquito mutant.

              I was just about to mention that, he also seems pretty damned happy about it.
