<p>Yeah! That&#8217;s me. Though I&#8217;m already 36, I still love toys, especially action figures. I don&#8217;t actually play with them <img src='http://mussafir.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' />  but I love putting them in different poses and then place them on display for a week or two, before changing their poses once again.</p>
<p>Usually I collect those 1/18 scale action figures such as those from GI Joe but lately I&#8217;ve been buying some large sized ones. These are called Playscale or 1/6 scale figures and my latest addition is the Hot Toy Superman/Clark Kent 2 in 1 figure. It&#8217;s an action figure based on the Superman Return movie. I wasn&#8217;t able to get the first edition of the figure (and the price for that edition keep going up) so once I heard that Hot Toy, the manufacturer was releasing a new one, I couldn&#8217;t stop myself from ordering one.</p>
<p>Well, it arrived on Thursday but I had to restrain myself from tearing out from its packaging. I finally laid my hands on the figure itself yesterday and it was sure worth it. Here are some pictures of it, in and outside the box.</p>

<p align="left">I&#8217;ve also made an order for a Batman Returns 1/6 scale action figure, which is also a second release. It is scheduled to be released before the end of this month. It is also a 2 in  1 item so it would really look great to have these two standing next to each other with their alter ego besides them. I can&#8217;t wait. <img src='http://mussafir.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':-D' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
