Accoutrements Sigmund Freud Action Figure

I bought two of these figures. One of them came in a dessimated box and one came in pristine condition. I put the one with the good box up in my work area in my room and the other I put in my car (out of the ratty box) for kicks with friends who may ride in my car with me. I think it's a funny toy, my psychology professors think it's funny (in fact, one of them has this same figure in their office), my friends think it's funny, and even those I know who despise Freud think it's funny. The Freud figure has been great for laughs and worth it's value. I fully intend to put my in-box Freud figure in my office when I finish my schooling to become a psychologist, =)(lol)and I intend to play with the other one when I need something random to harass my friends with. =P

I bought one of these years ago to put in my counselling office - a little professional humour to lighten things up. I liked it so much that I recently ordered another one, this time from Aliga Online, to give to a colleague who is doing me a big favour. I was going to give it to him next week, but now I have to scramble to find a replacement because it arrived very badly damaged. The package was obviously opened before - and not carefully - and someone tried to tape it back together. It looks terrible and cannot be given as a gift. The seller would have clearly seen how badly damaged the packaging was - there's no way to hide it - but they shipped it anyway. Perhaps they thought I wouldn't notice. The item was listed as new, which it clearly is not. This is fundamentally dishonest and very disappointing. Buyer beware. I can only hope that the seller or Amazon refunds the purchase price and covers the cost of return shipping.

To be honest, I wanted this item because I went to a convention and they were giving them out as door prizes... and I didn't win one! SO, to remedy THAT issue, I came home and ordered my own. Definatly a conversation starter. Every person who is in the business of helping others in counseling needs one of these. Even if you don't agree with Freudian methods. We all owe a debt of gratitude to Freud and I am big on origins of things. Good price, fast shipping, and just a fun thing to have around. Get one while you can get your hands on one. Remember, the Carl Jung action figure is SOLD OUT with no restock in sight! This too could become a collector's item!

This was a gift for a psychologist.

The packaging is great, I love the quotes on the back. I haven't gotten to actually play with it yet because it was a gift for my teacher and he hasn't taken it out of the packaging because he liked it so much.

I just recently bought this item for my younger sister who is actually studying Psychology... needless to say she loved it!From the hilarious packaging including some of his most notable quotes to his phallic cigar, this item makes the perfect gift for anyone interested in Psychology, whether they agree with Freud's theories or not.The seller did also a great job in packaging and shipping it so the box came in perfect conditions, as my sister obviously sees this as a collector piece to be placed in her office... =)And yeah, he looks like the typical movie villain, cigar included...

This Sigmund Frued Action Figure was a MUST GIFT for my Shrink's Hannaka Holiday.He is a Psychoanaylist and before I was even able to tell him that once out of the package it's value in a number of years would amount to nothing.We had a GREAT LAUGH.and that doesn't happen too often in my Sessions with him.So, lighten up...(reference to Hannaka...)HE LOVES IT!and the Cigar...

I did not get the figure that’s pictured. The one I received was a common, easy to find Freud figure. This took tome to return and I should have notified it was not the figure that was pictured.
