Chicken Fried Toys - Dime Novel Legends - Crash Site Intruder
In order to expand from their Western line, Chicken Fried Toys is delving into western myths. The first addition to the Dime Novel Legends line is the Crash Site Intruder. This is a great figure that glows in the dark and can fit into many 1:18 scale dioramas.

Super7 ReAction Original Willow Line
I really enjoyed this movie as a kid. It would have been cool to have action figures. When the movie came out, there were some diecast figures which I don't remember ever seeing. You can see them in secondary stores from time to time. I really liked the Madmartigan figure and Sorsha. Happy to finally see those. I tried watching the new Willow, but I don't have a lot of patience sometimes. One day I'm sure I'll sit through it and enjoy.

New Pegheads - Cheech and Chong and Die Hard
Matt from Toybox had requested some Cheeck and Chong figures. They were fun to make, so I got inspired during the holidays and did Die Hard.

Thomas Gunn Korean War US Marines
The Korean War is known as the Forgotten War. It doesn't get a lot of press, even in the collectibles market. Thomas Gunn Miniatures released a second set of Chosin Reservoir Marines. These are shooting their weapons. The first set which I picked up at the Annandale Toy Soldier show are the marching Marines.
