Geoff Becker, SHOCKER TOYS founder, acting CEO: Mr. Media Radio Interview
|
By BOB ANDELMAN
A six-inch action figure of Will Eisner’s The Spirit has a permanent place of honor on my desk.
Mixed in among some family photographs on a table to my right is an oddly transparent, 12-inch Spider-Man action figure and, next to him, a 12-inch talking Silver Surfer—although the batteries are apparently dead.
In the hallway, where most of our books are shelved, is a 9-inch high growling Incredible Hulk, and a 12-inch set of the original TV Green Hornet and Kato.
Out in the garage, still in boxes, are at least a dozen female action figures that I bought for my daughter when she was a baby, thinking she might one day like to play with them.
She didn’t.
The point of all this? I like action figures. Which is why I invited Geoff Beckett, acting CEO of Shocker Toys, to be my guest today.
