Hamilton weighs in with new Homer figurine The Hamilton Collection is back with two more hand-painted Homer Simpson figurines -- one showing him asleep at the nuclear power plant and one with him collapsing a bathroom scale. These two are follow-ups to Hamilton's 2001 release, "Woo-hoo!," a figurine that shows Homer leaping from a chair. These are part of Hamilton's "Misadventures of Homer Collection." The two new figurines are $19.95 each, plus $3.99 shipping. Read more on our Action Figures page.
