Okay, maybe not with kung-fu grip. "Faces in perpetual states of shock, horror, and/or 'WTF'-ness" are more likely. Anyway, McFarlane Toys are coming out with a new line of Lost action figures of season one's "fan-favorites", Jack, Kate, Locke, Hurley, Charlie, and Shannon.

McFarlane is known for there excellent sculpts. While called "action figures", most of McFarlane's figures are actually plastic statues.
I assume that Shannon was chosen ecause most customers for this type of item are men.
