Other than all the ones on my desk and the ones filling a Rubbermaid tub in my closet, I don’t have much to do with action figures. But some people do go nuts over them and enjoy keeping them in their packaging, never opened, and completely defeating the purpose of a toy (unless that purpose is showing it to a small child and then making them cry). However, upcoming toys sometimes tie into upcoming movies and that’s the case with figures that debuted at this year’s Toy Fair.
After the jump you can snag a look [via Figures.com] at the plastic forms of Megan Fox and Josh Brolin in Jonah Hex, Sam Worthington in Clash of the Titans and Avatar, a very cool glove and very creepy puppet from the remake of A Nightmare on Elm Street, and the really crappy-looking figure of Jake Gyllenhaal as Prince Dastan in Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time.

PRINCE OF PERSIA: THE SANDS OF TIME
Holy cow, that looks just like Megan Fox–right down to the bad skin!
Hey Matt – I'm thinking that puppet is a replica of the marionette that comes to life in A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors. The sculpt looks a lot like Kevin Yeagher's work on that film, and much less like the new prosthetics.
..I think it looks better than her real life counterpart. Less…..hooker-ish look/expression, if you will
Cool figures! Well, only the Hex one.. maybe.
Yup, that's what I thought — exactly like that. Except that one was grey and this one looks a bit….green? Or perhaps it's just the quality of the camera..
After seeing some of the pics I posted about in my post on Prince of Persia action figures, like the double bladed halberd assassin it was looking like the figures were pretty promising but that doesn't seem like Jake Gyllenhaal at all (the face is a mess).
Anything from Guardians of Ga'hoole?
The one of Persus from Clash of the Titans looks just like Vinnie Jones!
It's the love child of Vinnie Jones and Arnold Schwarzenegger.
THE CLASH OF THE TITANS REMAKE SUCKS!
IT NEVER SHOULD HAVE BEEN MADE, AND IT IS AN INSULT TO THE ORIGINAL MOVIE,
THE ORGINAL CAST, AND US THE FANS…
