Congratulations on breaking the ice in this section, Ackie. The first post!

As usual, super outdoor photos again, and probably the best on any forum for scenic wonders! That's a super looking Max steel figure, it has the moody serious look that I like the most out of all the Max Steel figures. I have a few like that but in other outfits. That big  mountain in the background looks similar in shape to a Volcano. I bet you are now bitten by the Max Steel bug. Max is the perfect 12" upgrade to Mattel's classic Mark Strong/Big Jim action figure from the 1970's.

Max has almost the same outfits and the same colours as the Big Jim figure

Thanks for your comments and thoughts Clive. Very much appreciated.

Undoubtedly great outdoor shots Alex! Well done.
I have the exact same figure but that eye-piece is permanently attached and that really limits his usefulness for so many situations.
I'm thinking that seeing as the body is good, he might be a suitable candidate for a head transplant.
What was the eye thing supposed to be or do anyway?

I’m so pleased that you thought that they were great outdoor shots. That’s interesting that you have the exact same figure. The eye-piece was also permanently attached on my Max Steel head. I think you can look though the eye piece green lens though the back of his head.

Yes, I worked that out, ....but why? There must be a back story to the idea?

It was a "bionic eye" gimmick. They used in the Six Million Dollar Man figures here in the States. So you could "see" what the bionic eye of your figure was "seeing."

As a kid, I didn't care for it. It made for an unsightly hole in the head and a goofy looking eye.

Well I have to say I still don't care for it, and for the very same reasons. 
Makes the figure unusable fo any of my purposes really, so it's a head transplant for mine as the body is quite well articulated. 

Those with a sharp eye will have noticed one of my non-bionic-eyed Max Steel figures masquerading as Santa's Chief Elf Sleigh Stacker in the picture of my Christmas table layout elsewhere here on Ammo.
He's outfitted in a miniature souvenir Russian fur hat sent from Moscow and a Ken-doll Kristoff costume I picked up cheaply on eBay. Makes a great elf suit I think.
