 Second entry using my home made light tent.
This time white ballance is not such an issue.

I suspect this will be commented on for the use of my Action Man and the left hand being slightly blown out.

I tried some shots of 'Real People'. Infact one was just lookede this with a much larger clamp.... but this one had more impact for me.

LOL!! of the 213 entries to this challenge (at least when I voted were 213) this one is the funniest of all, and at the same time I like the lightning, and... of course the Action Man!! :D so I had to give this shot 10 points (I gave only 3 in total) :D

Is the purpose of a picture to make people laugh? If yes you succeed.

Normally, I'm not one for using toys in photos. This one was done very well. Lighting and focus are good, and the theme is great!

Do they make toy aspirin? Funny and creative shot. Good job.

I like the humor of this one. Is that a marriage vow over his head?

The idea you executed here is in a number of other entries as well, but the lighting, composition and especially the expression you were able to capture on this guy are one of a kind!

Too contrived for my taste, not bad quality as a photo though.

Don't know, didn't appeal to me.....
