At #3 on my top action figures of 2023 list was the Plunderlings Plunderlong Tinker Rusty figure from Lone Coconut.

The 2nd Kickstarter wave with the new Long and Strong designs shipped to backers in the final months of 2023, just in time for the figure (and hatchling counterparts) to ride into my Plunderlings display in style.

From the Archives: Yip Yip Martians

Coming in at my #6 action figure release of 2023 are the Sesame Street ReAction Yip Yip Martians from Super7.

This is the first time these characters have been made in articulated action figure form. A lever on the back lets you move the jaw for a yipping action, and the included display stand gives them a floating appearance. Fun stuff!

From the Archives: Doc Brown (Hazmat Suit)

Coming in at #7 on my 2023 top action figure list was this Back to the Future Ultimate Doc Brown (Hazmat Suit) by NECA Toys.

This figure shipped right at the beginning of 2023 and came with a pile of accessories. There are alternate arms that are fully sleeved with gloves for handling uranium. It also has an alternate head that looks a lot like Christopher Lloyd circa 1985.

From the Archives: Grim Spectre Skeleton

Coming in at my #10 action figure release of 2023, is the Boss Fight Studios EPIC H.A.C.K.S. Grim Spectre Skeleton!

The Skeletons have good articulation and well-painted accessories. Unfortunately, they aren’t the most stable and have difficulty standing without the included stands.
