Most embarassing, but proudest item out for show


I just got the KISS Love Gun "Action Figures" complete with three hussies. My wife said there was no way in hell that I was going to get to put them on display in the living room, so I have them on my night stand in the bedroom. I also have several similar KISS sets, Metallica, Jimi Hendrix, Angus Young and Zakk Wylde. But I think this KISS set is probably my most embarassing, yet proudest item I have out where people can see it. It really is much cooler than it sounds. And yes, I did take it out of the box. That would just be weird to keep them in there and not be able to put them in action poses! Any skeletons that you shamelessly display from your own closets?

Why, yes it is my dear boy! But we don't call them "toys". They are called "Action Figures".

"Much cooler than it sounds"? Dude what are you talking about - it sounds COOL AS HELL! Is this something you can get from Chiam and Stanley, Inc. now pretty easily or something you had to take a second mortgage out on the house to win on ebay?

$25 on eBay Every now and then I check McFarland's web site, and I don't remember seeing these, so I did a little looking an BAM! there they were on eBay. I also think the Love Gun album cover was one of the coolest I have ever seen

Here are a couple up right now on eBay:
