So, I showed a picture of an action figure head several posts back. Well, under the guidance of William I finally ordered his body from monkeydepot.com. Please let me introduce you to Haven and Kiko's Dad, Tatsuo.
Oh Tatsuo is hiding all sorts of muscle under that dress shirt. Let's take a look, shall we?
I was certainly surprised with the articulation and build of this fella.
And, like his son, he is apparently NOT shy. lol
Yes, I know the skin is not an exact match, but I can live with it for now. (^_^)
And judging by those hands, he wants YOU to...
"Come hither..." Um, what? lol Sure this isn't somehow Eli's dad?
I gotta get different hands in a relaxed/semi-normal looking position....soon.
I also took the initiative to take a couple height comparison shots, but I made him put his shirt back on as I feared for Hanna's safety.
Though, I think she was disappointed.
I suppose girls are prone to pervy moments too.
Tatsuo, wanted me to add that even though Harley Ken is taller than him, he could totally take him on...and win. Arrogant much?
Well Harley Ken, who is slightly taller than my new action figure, how do you feel about that?
Harley Ken says: "Not intimidated."
Oh boy.
Apparently, I have some rather attitude ridden fellows in my doll group.
Well, at least they are nice to look at. Until they start fighting....
Tisk...tisk...
Maybe this is why the girls get all the air time?
But I promised 2012 was going to showcase more of the fellas, and holding to that, in a future blog you are going to get a HUGE surprise as to the newest purchase I made. I have been good not to buy much of anything, but I COULD NOT pass up this guy.
Oh I can't wait to share his arrival with everyone! I hope he arrives by Tuesday!!
This will be one of my most exciting purchases of 2012.
Okay, I'm done rambling.
Play on!! (^_^)

Tatsuo is a handsome doll. Your ladies must be going nuts with all the new men arriving. Lol!
ReplyDeleteYes, the gals are going mad. lol And with the next guy...their sweet little plastic heads may implode. :) I really hope not though. lol
DeleteGood looking fellow. Congrats on getting your first one :)
ReplyDeleteThank you! I think buying Ken dolls that aren't brilliantly articulated is now a thing of the past. These guys are built and are fantastic for posing. I'm hooked! :)
DeleteCongrats on your new hard body and thanks for posting that website, it's great!
ReplyDeleteThank you! And I am happy to pass on knowledge. That site is amazing. Another sight you might try is: http://www.gijoeelite.com/f_home.asp
DeleteMore cool 1/6 stuff can be found there. Another link provided to me by the ever awesome William. :)
Ohh, thanks! I have bookmarked that site too.
Delete:) Good! I love being a dolly enabler. lol
DeleteCongrats on your first one. The biggest adjustment in the action figure world is skin color mismatch. They don't care about that like we do in the fashion doll world. This is especially the case with the AA action figures. I guess I could just turn on that darn airbrush. One day. I can't wait to see the new many on the horizon.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I am noticing the non-matching skin tone thing. It is the one downside (well that and their huge feet), but after I get used to it maybe I will get better over time at spotting closer matches. It's weird being new at something pertaining to dolls. I saw some new AA action figures, and a lot of the time they are cheaper than the AA Fashion Royalty guys. It's something else I will most likely look into in the future. Airbrush eh? How would that work? I have seen it mentioned somewhere else before. Would that fade or stain other dolls?
DeleteGreat Looking Guy!. Thanks for posting the link!
ReplyDeleteThank you! :) And I'm happy I could pass on William's go to action figure links! :)
DeleteSuper sexy hunk! Great purchase. Enjoy him:)
ReplyDeleteThank you!! I plan on it. ;)
DeleteOooh, hot! Where is their mom? Is she still with us? I need to work on my dudes. Not a single one of them has a real back story. Sadness! I can't wait to see Tatsuo in action.
ReplyDeleteYa know, I am pondering whether or not she is still living or not. Initially I thought she was, but I'm still working that out in my grand drama scheme. I, too, am stoked to see Tatsuo in Doll Drama. I have this feeling that he and Kiko don't get along well. And with your magnificent brain you could easily whip those hunks into such a back story it would make their head spin....possibly in a literal sense as your girls may deem it to be so. ;) LOL Your girls are so sassy! I love them.
Deletewelcome to the club!! lol I love action figures because they can do much more then a fashion doll can! This guy looks great!
ReplyDeleteLOL It really does make you feel like you've joined some 1/6 elite club! I am loving it and your links have come in handy for a few others aside from just me. :) And Tatsuo thanks you!
DeleteHello from SpAin, i,m looking forward to monday and receive your new purchase. What voltage do you leave us... You new Haven is interesting. He is very masculine. I like all the positions he can do. Keep in touch
ReplyDeleteThank you Marta. I checked my new purchases tracking and I think he will be here Tuesday. I am so excited!
DeleteOh Cat he is HOT!!! Congrats on your first one! I don't have any action figures yet but I started to fall in love with the ones made by Hot Toys.
ReplyDeleteThanks April! :) I wasn't really expecting Haven's dad to be such a buff looker, but I guess he had to inherit a little of those good looks from his dad. lol And Hot Toys has me undone! I want several that I have seen recently. I hope if you do get some you'll share your finds with all of us. :)
DeleteCongratulations on your new guy, Cat! He is a charmer ... although I would rather not be on the end of that pointing finger ;-D
ReplyDeleteThanks! :) I laughed very hard while reading your comment. lol Like I said...gotta get those relaxed hands in the future.
