The big Joes are still dolls. The distinction was made by US Customs for classification and tax purposes. Any figure with removable clothing is a doll, any figure with clothing molded as part of the figure is an "action figure."

what makes an 'action figure' is the articulation and joints hence making him do "ACTION" poses. nothing to do with molded clothing

Those databases don't make the distinction between "action figure" and "doll" because too much of the market now uses "action figures" for "Doll houses". The play mechanics didn't change, only the theme and scale. Which is really fun to think about the fact that the Avengers mansion, Xavier School, and even Wayne Manor/Batcave, really are only superhero themed doll houses.

GREETINGS from THE CREATOR!! I woke up this morning and checked the site, just to notice that a custom of mine has been compared to a GLORIOUS MOUNTAIN LION. That was so fuckn powerful....
I put my all into these customs. I do it all and thanks for the gratitude. Thanks to EN SABBAH NERD, EN SABBAH NUT, NITELIFE, and SENDER. LORDMUDD keep them coming nice work. Now on to bussiness. Enters THE SUPER SKRULL KL'RT :: Powers of THE FANTASTIC 4 ENTERS THE ILLUMINATI SKRULL::Powers of BLACKBOLT, DOC STRANGE, MISTER FANTASTIC, NAMOR, and PROFESSOR X. Guys check this out, the eye of Agamotto is cut and sanded from a doc strange cape. The belt is from Hercules with the h removed, body Herc also. Shoulder pads from Colossus. Legs from Mr Sinister ah those high boots with custom cuts. All about detail. Enjoy and critique.....CREATOR OUT!!!!!! |

and in toy collection databases that use the fancy words, those are called "cloth apparel figurines" and "molded apparel figurines" etc. Same for the tax purposes you talk about actually. They use similar monikers of "cloth apparel figurines/goods" and "molded apparel figurines/goods." which then get reduced jargon for the common consumer.
Those databases don't make the distinction between "action figure" and "doll" because too much of the market now uses "action figures" for "doll houses". The play mechanics didn't change, only the theme and scale. Which is really fun to think about the fact that the avengers mansion, xavier school, and even wayne manor/batcave, really are only superhero themed doll houses. |

Guys can play with dolls if they want to, and gals can play with action figures too. Toys shouldn't discriminate, it's not like an easy bake oven runs a chromosome check before you can use it.
