Comic Based Figures

There's a rather poor selection of ready made toys of Gar out there. for the comic book fan.

Most of what is out there are "animated series" based toys.  Fans of the comic Beast Boy are still out of luck when it comes to figures.  We have 1 action figure (in a boxed set), 1 PVC figure (again in a box set), 2 Heroclix, and the hard to find metal figure.

Here is a selection of figures.  More to come as I find pictures (or buy them).

Changeling from the DC PVC set

from the Amazon.com website

The first figure of Changeling was released in a "PVC" set of the New Teen Titans.

No, I don't intend on taking the figures out of the box.

Yes, my mother thinks I'm crazy and wonders what in the world I'm going to do with the set.

Changeling from the DC Heroes Metal Figure Set

This DC metal figure set, produced in 1985 by Grenadier Models is very hard to find.  The set features several of the New Teen Titans and their adversaries.

I've also scanned in the box cover and the box insert for everyone to check out.

Next came the "HeroClix" Changeling.
I still haven't figured out how "HeroClix" is supposed to be played. I just bought it because it's Gar.

Sadly, it's one of the UGLIEST things I've seen. He's sort of half-morphing into an ape. They should have left his face unmorphed.

Thankfully, that HeroClix has been retired, to be replaced with a new version.  Thanks to Steve Saunders for the great job on this update.

You can find HeroClix figures at http://www.heroclix.com.

Changeling from the DC Classic Teen Titans Box Set

The Classic Teen Titans Box Set came out in August, 2003.  This is how they promoted Gar in the set.

The final version came out much better.

Gar the Monkey

Also in the box set

I just have to say this...

Of all the animals they could pick, why a monkey?

Did they have some monkey figures left over that they repainted?

Was there a monkey mold cheap?

We'll never know.

The final version from the box
DC Gar
The final version came out much better than the promo picture.  No one listened to me when I said the picture wasn't  what the final version would be.

The monkey is the same though.
