I got a catalog in the mail the other day advertising the new deluxe version of the Librarian Action Figure. She comes with a book truck, and some extra books. Nice.
Still, I think there should be a whole line of librarian action figures, including one with the earlier, discarded, exploding bun feature.
Lightning-fast reference is an obvious Librarian Superpower, as well as maybe, oh, I dunno, Willingness to Dedicate One’s Life to the Good of Others. But I don’t know how you would turn that into a pushbutton feature…unless you push the button and she detaches her head and offers it to you.
Yeah….the more I think about it….”Unshelved” action figures. I could go for that.
Bill and Gene: are you listening?
LOL
#7, oh, yeah, right on!
Giles is a good one, I haven’t been able to find his AF yet, just Buffy and Angel.
With all the STAR WARS AF’s how come the Galactic Librarian hasn’t been made? Not that she was a good role model, mind, but she was STILL a librarian in Star Wars!
#4, Unshelved has some great “Library” FBI type hats and jackets….maybe an AF wearing these? With dark glasses and a PDA!
Don’t forget the librarian at the Unseen University in Discworld.
Ook.
Ages ago, when the Barbie Librarian issue was brewing, I started thinking that I want a whole set of librarian action figures, all to the same scale.
I’ve got Giles from Buffy the Vampire Slayer (and they’re now making a library playset, too). I still need Nancy Pearl. There are commercial Batgirl/Oracle figures out there.
I was never able to find out if they made an action figure of Evie from “The Mummy”
But what I really covet would be a Bunny Watson figure.
Have an animation student in mind, if he isn’t too burnt out from finals will see if available for action figure.
Better yet: since FBI-ass-kicking radical militant librarians are now above the wire (heehee) gonna get a hat made at the mall: in some uber-gothic script – if they can do that for hats-
HX261 [lc call# for anarchism/resistance to government] with “radical militant librarians for sanity” or some such on the brim. or buttons or something.
S/he could have a Cutter chart that really cuts!
Oh hell yeah. Samurai meter stick! Can you draw? Can anyone here draw? Send me a sketch dammit. This would make a killer t-shirt. I’ll split the profits with ya…I’ll bet you could use a shiny new five dollar bill.
Action figure? i don’t think so. this thing makes me tired, altho they are great on the skeet range. a true librarian action figure would have a costume: a visor( not hornrims), steel-toe stealth shoes, samurai meter stick, #5 nanotube carbon pencil projectors. Make it in male and female versions (or something androgynous like the old Aeonflux cartoon), or have a sidekick (LIBTEK?) who can provide support from the atomo-turbo powered camo book truck with remote sort & shelve fucntions. comes equipped with wifi and mp3 player for npr podcasts and text display on the visor.
THAT’s an action figure.
