Not quite Carano

I’ve always admired the Round 5 non-bobbleheaded dolls/inaction figures (sans kung fu grip). The likenesses are quite something. But 20 bucks – ok, $16.99 plus tax – is a bit steep for a toy you can’t really play with, something that just sits on a shelf or your desk, something to express your love of MMA to the people in the cubicles around you, like wearing an Affliction T-shirt to the bars and clubs on Saturday night.

Still, I’d love to line my shelves with them, cuz, you know, they’re cool.

Round 5 is releasing the fourth series in the line, which includes Mauricio “Shogun” Rua, Gina Carano, Matt Serra, Dan Henderson and Cung Le. Really love the Hendo one, terrific likeness. Ditto Serra and Shogun. The only disappointment is Carano’s. It just doesn’t capture her glamour and kinda looks like Kate Jackson circa Charlie’s Angels, which is too bad as this is probably the first one most fanboy/toy collectors will want.
