Here is a sampling from of my collection of accessories to action figures, in this case, books. I find them fascinating as they are much rarer than swords or guns. Since they are mostly flat I was able to make a decent scan. I'm ashamed to say I'm not sure where each one is from, particularly. But starting from the top left: 1)
Philosophy, from an Accoutrement figure, I think Freud; 2)came with the Shakespeare figure; 3)a log book the came with a Baloo figure from
Tale Spin; 4)Vulcan book of philosophy; 5) book of Capt. Dathon from Star Trek; 6)not sure; 7)came with Charles Dickens action figure; 8)Capt. Picard's family album; 9)came with Claude Frollo from Disney's
Hunchback of Notre Dame; 10)another Picard family album; 11)not sure; 12)
Santa's Workshop, came with Jack Skellington; 13)Hogwart's textbook; 14) from Disney's
Atlantis; 15)
Pride and Prejudice, came with Jane Austen; 16) from
Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within; 17)from
Buffy the Vampire Slayer; 18)came with Merlin; 19)
Book Lust, came with the Librarian Accoutrement figure; 20)not sure; 21)Vulcan philosophy; 22)came with Ichabod Crane from
Sleepy Hollow; 23)came from
Anastasia; 24)
Sexy Dictionary, came with Austin Powers; 25) + 26) not sure, but the same place, possibly Hogwarts; 27)came with Claude Frollo; 28)another large format Picard album; 29
)Life and Death by M. Shelley, came with Frankenstein Monster; 30
)Demons and Dragons, more Buffy; 31
)Dentistry, came with Hermes from
Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer; 32) the Red Book, came with Bilbo Baggins; 33)
Evolution by Robert Louis Stevenson, came with Dr. Jekyll; 34)
Darkest Magick, more Buffy; 35)
Medical Journal, came with Dr. Caligari; 35)
Vampyr, more Buffy; 36)
King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table, came with Ichabod Crane
; and lastly
37)
Vampyr, even more Buffy.
Lest that list give anyone the wrong idea, I am not a big Buffy fan, in fact I've never watched a single episode. But I like the accessories that come with the figures. In fact if a figure has a book with it I'm likely to buy it whether I like the figure or not. Title in italics are actually on the books themselves. The Accoutrements action figure line (
www.accoutrements.com) features famous people from history and popular culture.
