Last week, I had a birthday party to go to for my cousin's son and a co-ed baby shower for one of my college buddies. So I decided to kill two birds with one stone and get a Babies R Us & a Toys R Us gift card from Toys R Us. While in Toys R Us, I decide to walk down the action figure aisle to see if there are any McFarlane MLB Playmaker 2 figures. I posted about the Andre Ethier Playmaker 2 action figure back on March 6th. Check it out here . Well, there just so happened to be an Ethier action figure. It was the one with Ethier batting, they did not have the one with him in the fielding position. As I mentioned in my post last month, it looks nothing like him. Here are some pics.
I put the action figure next to a baseball to give it some perspective
A close-up of his face. I don't think it looks like Ethier at all.

The McFarlane Playmaker 2 action figures are available now in stores and online.
After I found this action figure in Toys R Us, I went next door to Target to see if they had any. No luck at Target but I did find some cool canvas pictures. They were selling them for $19.99. They look really cool in person! You can see the Matt Kemp one at the top of this blog post. The pictures of the Ethier canvas & Dodger Stadium canvas are below.

True to the Blue!
OK, I'm going to Toys R Us tomorrow. With my luck, they'll have some out of market players there. They always do. Woodland Hills Toys R Us sucks.
ReplyDeleteI saw those pics at Target. I thought they were sweet. A little expensive, but sweet nonetheless.
Good luck DB! I went to another Toys R Us here in Orange County today. They had Pujols, Mauer & A-Rod but no Ethier!
