I'm sooo glad I don't collect 1/6th scale action figures and GI Joes anymore. I'd absolutely have to buy those if I did.

Not my thing, but very nicely designed- Pretty much exactly as they are described in the book(s). (Apart from the fact that they're wearing clothes... ;)).

$300 for Tar Tarkas !!! And 20" tall !!!   :o

But...if I had money to burn, I'd buy one.

JC of Mars was one of my favorite series as a kid.

I recently picked up a thrift store baggie that had what I gather were Tarzan the Epic Adventures toys, including Tars and a Tarzan with cape, helm, and bangles, that I thought would work well as a John Carter, if you don't follow the 'he wasn't buff, just low grav enhanced' line of thought too closely.

I wasn't sure what to expect after clicking on a recen John Carter topic.
All I can say is: "Thank the Gods there is a loin cloth involved!!!!!"
Below is a link to my blog. It's the place where I write uninteresting things about little toy soldiers. I do this because I refuse to grow up and behave like an adult.
