McFarlane Toys 6" Hanna Barbera Series 2 Assortment - Fred Flintstone with Dino Review

McFarlane Toys 6' Hanna Barbera Series 2 Assortment - Fred Flintstone with DinoI sincerely hope I can get the rest of these fine McFarlane Hanna Barbera sets. I recently found most of series 2 at a discount chain store (at a quarter of the normal price), and I am so happy with them. In my effort to "mature" my collection, weeding out kids' meal toys and plushies and going for display items that reflect a more "adult" cartoon lover, I'm happy to say that as long as I have this one, I'll never need to buy another Flintstones item again (aside from DVDs, the McFarlane Drive-In scene set, and something representing the Rubbles too; And I'll always be open to Teen Pebbles collectibles, not that they've made any yet).

More of a display sculpture than a toy, this fine set features Fred on his back and bursting with laughter as Dino's ticklish tongue goes at him in a classic Flintstones image. Beautifully sculpted with energy and personality, the figures come with a base on which a roller on the back creates movement of Fred's legs, adding to the over all delight! Looking just as it does in the promo images, it's definitely a must have for the Flintstone fan and will allow you the opportunity to throw out all your cheapy Flintstones toys and proudly display this one on the bookshelf or mantle instead. I just wish this "toy" line wasn't over with, but research showed me that Series 2 came out a couple years ago (doesn't seem like it's been that long, but I'm going by McFarlane's website), leading me to think there won't be any more of these awesome Hanna Barbera sets. Too bad if that's the case. I'd love a Huckleberry Hound, Scooby-Doo, Hokey Wolf, Snagglepuss and a few others. For now though, I still have some catching up to do on these (luckily, I only liked a couple from series 1).

McFarlane Toys 6" Hanna Barbera Series 2 Assortment - Magilla Gorilla with Mr. Peebles Review

McFarlane Toys 6' Hanna Barbera Series 2 Assortment - Magilla Gorilla with Mr. PeeblesAnd this one is definitely worth the purchase! I sincerely hope I can get the rest of these fine McFarlane Hanna Barbera sets. I recently found most of series 2 at a discount chain store (at a quarter of the normal price), and I am so happy with them. In my effort to "mature" my collection, weeding out kids' meal toys and plushies and going for display items that reflect a more "adult" cartoon lover, I'm happy to say that as long as I have this one, I'll never need to buy another Magilla Gorilla item again, aside from the DVD set.

More of a display sculpture than a toy, this fine set features Magilla in mid performance with Mr. Peebles acting as his barker on a sidewalk base with a crate, banana, and "Gorilla for sale" sign. Some minor assembly is required, as with all these McFarlane sets, and the slight difference between the promo images and the actual piece is that a peg on Magilla's foot serves to attach him to a spring on the base, allowing for some humorous character movement should you be inclined to give it a shake. Other than that, the beautifully sculpted and painted set looks just as it does in the online images. It's a must have for cartoon fanatics! I just wish this "toy" line wasn't over with, but research showed me that Series 2 came out a couple years ago (doesn't seem like it's been that long, but I'm going by McFarlane's website), leading me to think there won't be any more of these awesome Hanna Barbera sets. Too bad if that's the case. I'd love a Huckleberry Hound, Scooby-Doo, Hokey Wolf, Snagglepuss, Blue Falcon and Dynomutt, Teen Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm, and a few others. For now though, I still have some catching up to do on these (luckily, I only liked a couple from series 1).
