Yep. That's All State's "Mayhem," Dos Equis' "Most Interesting Man in the World" and Old Spice's, well, former "Old Spice Guy" (Isaiah's retired his towel, sigh).
Anyway. They're action figures. What the cheese?!??
Hurm. I s'pose I can see the logic for Equis, anyway. I mean, who doesn't like a guy for whom the contents of his tacos refuse to fall out? Who's the life of parties he's never even attended?
And who cares if that worldly, bearded, tanned Spanish rogue is actually a 72-year-old Jewish guy from the Bronx? Named Jonathan Goldsmith?
And Mayhem is a fitting character for actor Dean Winters, who died for 2.5 minutes in 2009 from a bacterial infection, spent most of the year recuperating and lost two toes and half a thumb from some heinous gangrene along the way. He gives new meaning to the word deadpan.
Stay thirsty, y'all.

Old Spice guy retired?! Boo on that!
I know, right?? Now who's gonna get me tickets to that thing I like?? :D
Omigosh, too funny! I had no idea anyone made action figures of iconic advertising characters. Where's the Taco Bell chihuahua? And I'm super sad that Isaiah retired from Old Spice - those commercials were a riot!
Oh, and congrats on that award. I'm glad it arrived at just the right time!

It wouldn't have taken much more for this post sound like an episode of "Sick sad world"! ; j
Alesa, dude. You just put me in the way-back machine, spun the dial to 1998 and kicked the hatch shut!! :D
Those aren't action figures. Those are dolls. But they're still awesome!
Who are the people buying these things?? (But they are pretty awesome.) :)
Isaiah -- Nooooooooo!!!!!
And LOL to Matthew -- totes dolls. :)
That is hilarious that they all have action figures!
Aw, too bad. That Old Spice guy was so funny!
