Toy-Ventures: The Thrill Seekers

Who are the Thrill Seekers you ask? They're a very rare series of action figures knocking off both Mego's Action Jackson and Evel Knievel. They're also related to other notorious knock offs like Mr. Rock and the Lincoln Monsters. Also, you get to meet Big Bill!

TONIGHT! BIF BANG POW DOCTOR WHO RETROSPECTIVE!

Live at 8:30 PM this Evening. We're  launching a new series today "The History of ReMego" speaking about toy lines that tried to rekindle the 8 inch format created by Mego. For our first installment, we've got the president of Bif Bang Pow! Jason Lenzi to talk about their range of Doctor Who action figures. 

 We talk about the inspiration for the line, it's origins, what was released and of course all the things that didn't get made due to its sadly short tenure. 

 Please join us in discussion at the MegoMuseum Forums: http://megomuseum.com/community/forum.php

Entertainment Earth Convention Exclusive! The wait is over. Bif Bang Pow! is proud to introduce our First Doctor and Eleventh Doctor 8-inch scale EMCE action figures in an incredible and exclusive way! This Doctor Who 50th Anniversary Tin Tote features plenty of authentic detail and imagery that spans 50 unforgettable years of Doctor Who, from the First Doctor to the Eleventh Doctor to the iconic TARDIS and beyond! The colorful tin box (measuring approximately 8 5/8-inches wide x 6 3/4-inches tall x 4-inches deep) is magnificent enough by itself, but inside you'll find retro-style action figures of William Hartnell's First Doctor and Matt Smith's Eleventh Doctor! The Doctors stand about 8-inches tall and feature real fabric clothing, accessories, and multiple points of articulation. Carry them all with you wherever your intergalactic travels take you!

The First Doctor is easily identified in his fancy buttoned vest, black coat, black-and-white checkered pants, and black shoes, carrying his walking stick. Fans of William Hartnell and the exciting adventures that first brought Doctor Who to the world will welcome him into their collection with open arms!

Matt Smith's popular Eleventh Doctor is dressed in his trademark red bowtie, suspenders, white shirt, dark pants, brown tweed jacket (complete with elbow patches!), and shoes. He brings his Sonic Screwdriver along as an accessory, of course.

Produced by the BBC, Doctor Who is the longest-running sci-fi TV series in the world. The award-winning show presents the adventures of a time traveler known simply as "the Doctor." Along with his companions, this mysterious Time Lord journeys through time and space using his TARDIS, which appears from the outside to be an ordinary police phone booth.
