I am not a toy expert like our brothers and sisters over atTomopop.com, but I know a good toy when I see one. And, man, these Mad Dog & ScorpionContraaction figures are some damn good toys.
Created by John “Jin-Saotome” Mallamas using parts from other action figures, theContracharactersalonewould be reason enough to have to hide your retro boner behind your Trapper Keeper. But what takes these figures over the edge are the made-from-scratch weapons! Attached to the guns with magnets (meaning they can be switched out), the artist recreated the Machine Gun, Laser, and fan-favorite Spread Gun shots from the classic arcade shooter.Soawesome.
You can check out Jin’s deviantART page righthereto peruse all of his incredible work.
What do you think? Are you as impressed with these as I am? What other classic videogame characters would you love to see this artist tackle? Random trivia: Do you remember which one Mad Dog is?
