Dumbest Accessories EVER

[Krutch]

I have never really been into collecting action figures but I remember some of them came with the dumbest thing they could have chose. Any that you can remember being so stupid?

The only one I can think of off the top of my head is getting the "Smallville Lex Luthor" action figure, which came with the "Annual Luthorcorp Report". Also came with a laptop. But an Annual Luthorcorp Report? Really? Who the hell thought that would be a fun accessory?!

Haha a goo friend of mine is crazy about batman. Let's just say we have been in a few toy departments together. This one time we found this batman that came on the card with only one accesory... And it was a "super pig".... Probably the funniest thing I have ever seen come with a toy. A little plastic pig. And it came with batman hahah

The pig thing actually makes sense, considering its from an episode of JLU. As opposed to the many stupid things that came with other Batman/JLA/Superman/etc figures that never showed up in any cartoon.

Atleast that's something that fits the character.
Why would Wolverine need a backpack with giant guns?
does batman need a disc-shooting gun??

I was just discussing this the other day when I had bought a Venom figure that came with a web axe. The most out-of-place accessories I have seen were the earlier U.S. DBZ figures, some of which came with machine guns and rocket launchers. This despite the fact that A) each of these characters can fire chi blasts that are more powerful than these weapons, and B) most characters in the series are basically immune to these weapons.

I completely agree. There was no reason for the DragonBall Z figures to come with guns. I think some of them would come with stickers too, that were out of place with the character.

I think it's dumb that some of Jazwares Mortal Kombat figures come with weapons that can not fit in their hands.

The over sized "evidence" masks that come with The Dark Knight Movie Masters action figures are pretty much pointless.

Do you mean a symbiote axe? Cause that would make sense...Considering Carnage uses that type of stuff all the time.

Nope, it's all webbing. Hence, why its discussing led to the DBZ weapons.

Ok fine if you knew that, but unless someone saw that cartoon, and they were like hey here's a sweet batman toy, wait it comes with a pig?? I was like wtf??

[Candy Kappa]

don't think any of the figures I've bought had any dumb weapons, but some of the weirdest was the blow-fish flail to one of the storage shell turtles.

I guess 3 1\4 Deadpool's way over sized sai was pretty stupid

[Ninjinister]

Nothing really can be considered out-of-character for Deadpool to come with as an accessory. Stupid, yes, but so is he. I mean, the X-Men Origins fig that came with that weird, shoulderstrapped double rocket launcher actually had reasoning for him using it on the package... and it made perfect sense for Deadpool!

Don't you think it's that way for a lot of characters, though? By the way....

Spoiler:

The pig is Wonder Woman. Circe changed her into it. How did Bats convince Circe to switch her back?

[Spitfire]

The dumbest accessories I've come across belong to the Marvel Legends Blade. He comes with a gun and that thing he throws. Awesome right they're from the movie and all? Well no he can't even hold him. So toys may come with random things sometimes but when they come with stuff they can't even use that they clearly should be able to it's annoying.

[Candy Kappa]

that really annoying when the figures can't hold the accessories.

[Ninjinister]

Yeah, when your fig comes with two balled fists, no alternate hands, and weapons (the aforementioned MK figs come to mind), it boggles the mind.

[Candy Kappa]

some ninja figures I had (unkown line) their hands was in a open first karate chop style, and came with weapons, so stupid...

Haha how about the 'super articulated' turtles from the 2k3 line. In theory, great, but they couldn't hold anything for more then 2 seconds.

[Candy Kappa]

yeah, that was frustrating, luckily I have lots of clear rubber bands

I'm pretty sure those are the Fightin' Gear turtles. Those figures are awesome. I never opened mine but if the hands are anything like the Space Hoppin ones they don't hold anything for jack.

Know what else is frustrating? When you buy a figure and it's supposed to hold something then you get it and it doesn't. By supposed to I mean they freaking show the figure holding it on the package.

I have this figure and he's no where near able to put that sword in his hand.


I almost sent him back but I'm going to exercise my patience and try to expand the hole in his hand. NECA figures are notorious for breaking on me though. My Turtles aside I've had two Terminator figures both of which have broken accessories and all I did was take them out of the package.

[Brodie]

Spitfire, have you tried taking the tround bit off the bottom of the sword? Neca is known for having figures that need their accessories come apart and put back in the hands. same with McFarlane.

[Spitfire]

No I haven't tried that yet. The sword looked pretty solid but I'm not sure. I'll check it out though thanks!
