We recently named Jadzia Dax our #1 Character We Most Want To Party With, and even her action figure makes us happy!
Forget about the fact that without her, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine would be about as fun as a space mall; taken in her own right she’s spent over 300 years as both a man and a woman and done everything imaginable.
She’s also the most interesting addition to the Gallery of Gay Action Figures on account of her sexuality being the most complicated. Jadzia Dax is a male symbiote currently residing in a female body, but because she carries the memories and experiences of her seven previous hosts (male and female) and is attracted to both genders, Dax qualifies as both bisexual and transgender.
By popular demand, we’re starting up a gallery for our Gallery of Gay Action Figures (see Angry Puppy: Episode 6 for the background story).
The honor of the first slot goes to one of our favorite gay action figures and possibly our favorite gay “superhero”, Willow Rosenberg! (Did we mention we’re big fans of the Whedonverse?)
Lee says:
“Willow is definitely my favorite Scooby. Whedon’s before-ironic-was-passé sense of humor seems to come through her the most. Certain phrases have even worked their way into my regular vocabulary. (”I make my own fun!” “Bored now.”). Check out this site for more Willow quotes.”
Marc says:
“Willow’s looking fetching in her bohemian hipster outfit and is ready to hunt her some Angry Puppy (aka vampires) or whatever the Hellmouth throws her way this week.”
This particular figure (with cat familiar) doesn’t really resemble Willow much, but lucky for you, Willow has more than one action figure in her honor. Among those found in a quick Amazon search:
