Star Wars Power of the Force 2 - Freeze Frame Mail Aways

 Since I started buying up cheap POTF2 figures, I noticed some of the offers they had on the backs of the cards, particularly the figures that had Freeze Frame slides on the front. People stopped making slides back in the 80s. So why pack slides in with figures and what do you do with them? Well, Kenner also offered a Freeze Frame folder and a set of binoculars to view the slides. Each was a separate offer.

I picked up the folder on Ebay for cheap. Thank goodness it only cost kids one Proof of Purchase and $2 shipping. This was a flimsy plastic sheet that only held 12 slides. Kind of weird when the checklist had almost 40 figures that contained slides. 

The binos are kind of cool, though you can only load one slide in at a time. Still, both are kind of fun. Here they are along with some POTF2 figures along their original Kenner counterparts.

War of the Rohirrim Figures from McFarlane

Have never seen the movie. Of course McFarlane always has to do an odd scale, but these figures look pretty cool. I'll definitely have to watch it. The Ice Troll Build a Figure is awesome as well.

Fresh Monkey Fiction - Eagle Force "The Hidden" Micronauts

These are part of the new Eagle Force line from Fresh Monkey Fiction. The Hidden are an obvious homage to the Micronauts Time Traveler. The Hidden figures were offered in five different colors. Blue and orange were sold out. Each figure comes with three different heads. I had trouble switching them out. Managed to get one changed out. The others didn't cooperate.
