BoomYummy! BifBangPow! brings Shore Leave and Alchemist

December 3, 2012

  • Here come Shore Leave and The Alchemist!
  • Based on Adult Swim’s animated series The Venture Bros.
  • Fully articulated, 8-inch tall action figures.
  • Real fabric clothing and a 1970s retro style!

Bif Bang Pow! blasts off for action with this line of fully articulated, 8-inch tall action figures based on Adult Swim’s all-the-rage animated series The Venture Bros. You’ll find the most popular and recognizable characters from the show faithfully represented in real fabric clothing and a 1970s retro style that accurately portrays that distinctive action-comedy mix that has become synonymous with the TV series! Each figure comes individually carded in blister packaging.This set includes 2 individually packaged action figures (subject to change):  1x Shore Leave 1x Alchemist

Also known by the moniker “Holy Diver,” this former O.S.I. agent and current member of SPHINX prefers guys to gals and firearms to melee combat. Complete with tattoos, a watch, and not one but two pistol accessories, Shore Leave appears in a recognizable fabric outfit that includes a vinyl collar, belts, knee pads, and boots. He’d prefer to go home with you to your The Venture Bros. collection, rather than staying here at Entertainment Earth. What do you say?

Appropriately, the other action figure here is that of The Alchemist. Dr. Orpheus’ old friend is clad in his trademark fabric robe with pants underneath. His nifty accessory is a stack of books, of course. Maybe Al can help you find the philosopher’s stone?

They’re ready and waiting for your toy box or collection shelf!

Entertainment Earth leaked the latest wave of figures from Bif Bang Pow!’s Six Million Dollar Man series, coming soon are Steve in a spacesuit (I can never get enough 8″ space suits personally) and fan favourite Barney Hiller (originally Miller) aka the Seven Million Dollar Man. A few years ago if you had told me I’d have an 8″ action figure of Monte Markham, I’d have laughed in your face.  Now if you’ll excuse me I’m off to build a “The Second Hundred Years” custom playset.
