Having more fun with the book prop that came with the "Fred" fig. I chose the book entitled "Portals" since this display has a supernatural theme.
Love "Zatanna" so I'm happy with this outcome.

"Take-out"
Purchased the "Fred" female fig from the "Angel" line of toys purely for the accessories. I forgot to take a pic of the packaging before ripping it open.
I only have this A.C.B.A. display to show for it.
The "Fred" fig comes with the white-board in the background, a microscope, 2 books, the Chinese take-out box with chopsticks sticking out and a strange contraption that I can't even describe.

"Punisher"
The first "Punisher" fig that I own and it is awesome. It came with a weapons cache which is mind blowing.
Had tons of fun posing and taking pics of this intense character. Both "Frank" and "Deadpool" are great characters to pose because they are dynamic with extreme opposite characteristics.
Still hunting for a "Bazooka" prop.

"The Invaders"
I first fell in love with this version of "Namor" when I saw a vid "Boog" did with "The Invaders" characters. I don't have a classic "Cap" or "Bucky" so I did my own interpretation of this team.
This display is inspired by the fact that I will be reporting for reservist duty soon and I wanted to have a military theme.

"Public Enemies"
Finally got down to doing a display with my "Public Enemies" figures.
Don't have a decent "Bats" for A.C.B.A. after selling my DCSH version to "Mindless" but I settled on using the "Knight Shadow" variant after initially toying with the idea of using the "Armory" one.

"Return of the King"
A.C.B.A. display inspired by cover art from the above title. This is a display quickly put together whilst at "Mindless's" crib when we were filming a joint episode. I love it.

"Walmart" exclusive "Hulk"
Bought the exclusive "Hulk" but upon receiving it... didn't really like it because of the dull colours and puzzled expression.
Have sold it off. I still prefer the "Face-off" and "Toys"R"Us" exclusive versions.

"Freeze!!!"
A simple display that I put together featuring "Icicle" from the "Public Enemies" story. I took a page from "Mindless" using "Iceman" as a "victim".

"Grave"
My new display that I entitled "Grave" for "AJ Frost's" contest. I decided to feature DC characters because they are seldom shown love in the community. I also chose "Superman" to be the recipient of a killer blow because he is invincible and I felt it was time for a different ending.

"Marvel Select: Dr Doom"
I own the "Legends" version and definitely prefer that one. The only incentive to purchase this was the throne prop which I have seen featured in numerous A.C.B.A. displays.
I hunted down this set and get it today from a local seller who happened to leave near my neighbourhood. I went down to collect it and the blister packaging was very dirty. My fingers turned black and sticky upon handling the packaging. I came home and left the bundle on my floor. If this had been in a store, I wouldn't have touched it with a pole.
However, the contents were in good condition and I had fun creating this display. I envisioned this scene immediately when I had made up my mind to purchase this. I will try to sell the "Dr Doom" figure as it is hardly articulated.

"He Whose Limbs Shatter Mountains and Whose Back Scrapes the Sun"
The prize of my huge haul... "Fin Fang Foom"!!! I know nothing about this character but I had to have him since I'm a "Dragon" myself.
Another classic example of a real BAF. He is so huge that I could not take a picture of the entire fig. The sculpt and details on this fig is worth the price tag. Freaking awesome!!!

"Sentinels"
"Rick Valdez" presented me with the opportunity to own my 2nd "Sentinel" and I pounced on it.
These are the real deal... not like the mini BAFs we are going to get in the future.

"Yelena Belova"
Not too familiar with this character but a little research reveals her as the original "Black Widow's" replacement and nemesis.
She has a nice head sculpt but I am not crazy about the neck joint, arms and hands.
I still managed to make the pose work.

"The Dark Knight" movie figures
Never been a fan of movie figs but I made an exception in this case because it is cool to have a "Bruce Wayne" fig for A.C.B.A. displays with a "Christian Bale" head. Doesn't hurt to have "Michael Caine" as "Alfred" and "Gary Oldman" as "Commissioner Gordon".
I have no idea who the fourth guy is. I will just use him as a generic character in displays.I wouldn't mind getting a "Ras Al Ghul" with the "Liam Neeson" head but I'm still on the fence about getting the movie "Bane" and "Catwoman".

"Silver Banshee"
Latest addition to my "Public Enemies" collection. She goes well with "Icicle" and "Major Force".
Other than a scuff on her chest... the fig is nice.

"Jack O'Lantern"
A "Spidey" villain that I've seen once battling "Venom" portrayed by "Flash Thompson" in the comics. Typical of a "Spidey" baddie with a glider and bombs. Cool fig.

"Rogue"
A new addition to my "X-Men" display. Not much to say because I'm not crazy about "X-Men" but this is a rare fig that I couldn't pass on.
