Damn I want these PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: DEAD MAN'S CHEST toys Right Now Dammit!!!

Published at:  Feb 02, 2006 3:36:43 AM CST

Hey folks, Harry here... Another of my IM buddies... John Robie, while checking email - got sent these from that scourge of the internet, the Yatterling... who got em from the swingingest dick to ever surf the scruvy nets of the world wide web... that's right the famed Ryan! Well, he managed to get these early this afternoon, but me being busy with daydreaming of bliss... just now am getting around to putting them up for you. THESE RULE! Best action figure creatures in a damn long time. But then, there's only one thing better than undead pirates.. and that's barnacle festooned monster pirates! FUCKING A! How many of you got a shelf with their names on it waiting for these babies?

    Part 2 isn't about to rehash the old skellie pirate thing, not totally anyhow, apparently Davey Jones's pirates are all mutations and amalgamations of sea creatures and other wierd and wack things! Theres meant to be a shell-fish man whos face can retract into a shell or something too... CANT WAIT!!!

    these are toys?

    by chickengeorgevii

    harry harry harry.....tsk tsk tsk....these are not toys....no no no no....these are statues....toys have arms that move....toys get thrown under the bed where the dog chews on them....toys get put in the microwave to see what happens....toys get lost in the cushions of the couch....toys take a ride in your pants pocket through the washer and dryer....toys conquer the butter during sunday dinner....toys poke your sister in the eye....toys help you to describe what part of your no region that the priest stroked...toys are based on characters that appeared in the background for fourteen frames during a transition establishing shot...toys are made by 10 year old little chinese boys for 40 cents a month...little boys who live in the used outhouse, taking a daily beating from one parent while turning tricks to the tourists for the other parent and fighting off bobcats, gorillas and horny priests while they walk 50 miles uphill each way to work for 58 hours a day ....toys are fun and chemical based that if ground into a fine powder can give you brain cancer and scurvy....these are not toys....these are statues.....And thus, will they give these a crotch? - - - George, The 7th Chicken!!!!

    by performingmonkey

    Sure, they ARE out to make money as every motion picture is, but they're pre-planned as a trilogy of movies. The first was designed to be standalone in case it bombed, but they already had these stories mapped out. As long as they don't decide to do a prequel trilogy...

    These look like they're McFarlane's handy-work.

    by george newman

    I wish he still made toys and not these statues as the other george noted. Sure you can move an arm or two, and maybe swivel the waist. But you can seriously play with these. McFarlane's first 10 series or so were incredibly detailed AND play-withable! That's why he has so much money. Not because of Spawn. Spawn sucks. It was the toys. The gorgeously detailed ACTION FIGURES!!!! I don't need a bunch of paperweights for my desk. I want toys!

  • Some of the girls collect action figures themselves. The geek community is no longer about anyone's basement, kids. Just go to film school. If you're a sorry bastard who are just geeky enough to visit and post to this site but unable to tap into the female geek community, then you're the ones who make the "basement dweller" comments and well, life must really suck for you. Having said all that, those figures look gay. Depp was cool in the first film but you can only take so much of that.

    With his popularity rapidly declining, Cthulhu took the only job he could find, that of a pirate mascot at a local Seafood restaurant. Unfortunately his demeanor was erratic and one night he snapped... ... He spent the rest of his days homeless roaming down near the pears, looking for someone to scrape his barnacles off.
