Action Figures: Choose a 6-Inch Military Accessory or a Donkey Kong Figure

Choose between 1/12 and 1/6 military-scene accessories for scale displays, or a used Takara Donkey Kong figure for a character-focused Super Mario Bros. collection.

Last updated Aug 1, 2026

Shopping action figures in this group starts with a basic split: are you building a scaled military scene around an existing figure, or adding a standalone character figure to a Nintendo collection? The two P90 entries and the VSS are display-only accessories sized for different figure scales, while the Donkey Kong figure is a used, character-led option at a markedly different listed price.

Quick take

Pick scale before price. The 1:12 Soldier Accessory P90 Submachine Gun Model is intended for 6-inch scenes, while the 1/6 Scale VSS Gun Metal Model is intended for 12-inch scenes. Both are new accessories with interchangeable features and a 14 years and up age level. Neither includes a figure body or other figure parts.

The Takara Donkey Kong Action Figure belongs in a different decision lane. It is a used PVC Donkey Kong figure associated with the Super Mario Bros. franchise, rather than a military-scene accessory. Its $300 listed price places it well apart from the two scale accessories.

Listed-price comparison

The bars place each option along the $13.26 to $300 listed-price range.

Decision matrix

  • For a 6-inch soldier scene: choose the 1:12 P90 model. Its stated 1/12 scale and 6-inch scene fit align directly with that display size.
  • For a 12-inch soldier scene: choose the 1/6 VSS model. The stated 1/6 scale is intended for 12-inch action figure scenes.
  • For a Donkey Kong character display: choose the Takara figure when Donkey Kong and the Super Mario Bros. franchise are the priority over military accessories.
  • For a new display accessory: either scale-model accessory fits that condition. The Donkey Kong figure is identified as used, making condition an important part of that choice.
  • For the lowest listed price: the VSS model is the pick at USD 13.26. The P90 is nearly adjacent in price, but serves a different scale.

Product notes

1:12 Soldier Accessory P90 Submachine Gun Model for 6-inch Action Figure

The 1:12 Soldier Accessory P90 Submachine Gun Model is aimed squarely at 6-inch scenes. Its 1/12 scale is stated as suitable for that format, and the interchangeable feature supports building out a soldier display with an accessory rather than changing the figure itself. Choose the P90 when a 6-inch action figure scene calls for this specific submachine-gun model and a new, display-focused piece. The key limitation is equally clear: the package includes one P90 model only, with the body and other parts excluded, and its stated use is display only. It carries a 14 years and up age level. Both identically titled P90 entries share the same stated price and details.

1/6 Scale VSS Gun Metal Model for 12-inch Action Figure Scene Prop Accessories Toy

The 1/6 Scale VSS Gun Metal Model is the direct fit for a 12-inch action figure scene. It is described as a metal-alloy accessory measuring about 6.8 cm, with an interchangeable feature and a display-only purpose. Choose this VSS model when the existing figure collection is 1/6 scale and the goal is to add a compact military-scene prop; its USD 13.26 listed price is the lowest in the comparison. Its limitation is that it remains an accessory rather than a complete figure: one VSS model is included, while the body and other parts are not. Like the P90 option, it has a 14 years and up age level and is new.

Donkey Kong Action Figure NINTENDO Super Smash Bros game 1994 Toy Hobby Takara

The Takara Donkey Kong Action Figure is for the shopper who wants Donkey Kong as the centerpiece, not an accessory for a scaled soldier scene. The figure is associated with the Super Mario Bros. franchise, has a multicolor PVC construction, and is identified as a standard edition from Japan. Choose it when the character and Nintendo connection matter more than matching a 6-inch or 12-inch military display. The main tradeoff is its USD 300.00 listed price and used condition, which set it apart from the new accessories. That condition can suit a character-specific collection, but it does not provide the new-item status of the P90 and VSS models.

Final recommendation by use case

Choose the 1:12 P90 for a 6-inch action figure military display where the named P90 accessory is the intended scene detail. Choose the 1/6 VSS for a 12-inch scene, especially if the lowest listed price is also important. Choose the Takara Donkey Kong Action Figure when the goal is a used Donkey Kong figure tied to the Super Mario Bros. franchise and the much higher listed price fits the collection plan.

The clearest shortcut is simple: match the P90 to 1/12 scale, match the VSS to 1/6 scale, and choose Donkey Kong for character-focused collecting rather than weapon-prop customization.
