Warning: Some action figures were harmed in the making of these photographs.

In a humble home in The Middle of Somewhere, there lives a small yet brave action hero. The right dashing fellow is called Action!Ben.



One calm morning on the eve of a tremendous event, Action!Ben set off on an important mission to retrieve a precious document.



Stealthily, he departed his abode.



He quickly made his way toward his goal, all the while striving to remain unseen by any foes.



"Ah, ha! I'm almost there. I must now scale this tall structure..."



"...and crawl this expanse..."



"Oh, dear, I forgot my grappling gear! Never fear. It's not going to stop Action!Ben me!"

After a slight struggle, he gained access to the safe-like container of the hunted article.



"Oh, my," exclaimed the action hero. He was then struck speechless...



...for about two seconds until he squealed with glee. "It's here! It's actually here! The new issue of SciFi Channel's magazine! Woo-hoo!" He then quickly dashed back to his base of operation to enjoy his spoils.



"That Ben Browder is one fine-looking man, if do say so myself."

THE END...
NEW GATE FRIDAY COMETH!


Action!Ben nor his, uh, Action!Photographer is perfect. They both make mistakes. Here lies the proof in some outtakes from this adventure....



"Ooops! I fell over."



"Silly me. I fell over again. Did someone spike my Action!Beverage?!"



"Yipe, my hand broke off, and I plummeted to the earth! Luckily I'm made of plastic and therefore bounce." This was actually quite horrifying for the Action!Photographer.

Action!Ben is expected to make a full recovery from his Action!Injuries./lj-cut>

ROTFLOL!!! **gasps for breath** Oh my GOSH! that is too funny! XD

Meanwhile the graphic depiction of action!ben's injuries were truely grusome. They might need a disclaimer, you know to prepare ppl for the shock of his wee severed hand!

LOL! I totally love you. Thank you for making an Action!Ben adventure to cheer me up and destress me. *giggles* Action!Beverage. Also, I nearly peed my pants about the hand. *giggles* I really need to photograph my Buffy figures. Honestly, I can't wait for my Jack and Daniel action figures to come in.

There will be a Sam and Teal'c in the next set (or so I read). If they keep going, I could see them getting to Mitchell and Vala.

OMG. No seriously, this is hilarious. I have seen this type of thing with the 9th and 10th Doctors and all kinds of other figures.

Is that a Crichton action figure? Or a Stargate Mitchell?
