Shocker: Stop Motion With Freakishly Real-Looking Action Figures Produces Freaky Video

We like to joke a lot about Hot Toy’s incredibly detailed character replica toys, and how, while they primarily fill us with awe and desire, they’re also just a tiny bit creepy. Because they really, really look just like the movie stars they’re modeled after. So really it was only a matter of time before somebody decided to try doing stop motion with them, and the result weaves in and out of the Uncanny Valley like the Batpod through traffic.

Susana Polo thought she'd get her Creative Writing degree from Oberlin, work a crap job, and fake it until she made it into comics. Instead she stumbled into a great job: founding and running this very website (she's Editor at Large now, very fancy). She's spoken at events like Geek Girl Con, New York Comic Con, and Comic Book City Con, wants to get a Batwoman tattoo and write a graphic novel, and one of her canine teeth is in backwards.
