If I had an action figure, it would probably be a really cheesy one. (Hopefully it would look like me, unlike some action figures and there namesakes.) The toy would wear baggy cargo pants and a t-shirt. It would come with a computer, cd player and cds and some books. Interesting features would include:
~push a button and hear me say "Jello!" ~move arms and my fingers will type ~Head bobbles with music. As for other Barrowdowns products, how about a t-shirt that reads "My other tombstone is my signature." (If that makes any sense at all.)

But be careful with the obloquy™ figure. It tears new additions to your collection to shreds if they don't shape up.

I have just put in a patent for The Barrow-Downer DVD Mate TM. This product is a little wraith shaped thingy which sits on top of the TV and by magic (i.e. infra-red) detects those times when a LotR DVD is watched. It is a labour saving device as it shouts random criticisms while any of the films is watched, thus saving us our breath. Selected phrases include: "But of course, it would be much better if they had kept Tom Bombadil", "That should be Glorfindel, not XenArwen rescuing Frodo", and "This portrayal of Denethor is incorrect".
I also want a Moderator action figure. It is a vague shaped thing, it looks different every time you look at it and is faintly scary, and it has a little button on the back you can press, making it say it's phrases "Let's get back on topic" and "This thread has been closed".

Don't forget the cuddly skwerlz that accompany the moderator action figures - they can talk too! They are programmed to speak one of five different sentences:

How about the Lalwende/Mithalwen dolls twin set? It comes with a mini-game where both dolls rapidly collect little green blocks.
![]() And who could resist the Fordim/davem warrior set? Kids used to play battles with their Aragorn and Sauron figures, but no more....

I'm afraid my action figure, no one will get,. Sort of an inside joke with some friends. But, for one that everyone will understand (hopefully)....
B88 action figure- If you pull his tail he will spurt of random cheesy sayings like....make like a tree and leaf, or make like a bakery truck and haul buns. Either that, he'll go into a mindless ramble no one will understand ![]() The Lalwende doll, stick it in some jello and it will test the wellness, density, and if one could stand in a tub of jello without sinking ![]() Edit: For an extra $2, on the B88 doll, you can get the added feature of programming it to say random lines from the Blue Collar Comedy tour comedians. Even the feature if someone asks a stupid question, he'll say "Here's your sign." Ahhh, I love them Blue Collar guys ![]() Last edited by Boromir88; 12-17-2004 at 12:20 PM. |
