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."

this is f-ing incredulous! Hasbro should learn a thing or two from you :rolleyes:

very cute optic beams! on another lvl i keep imagining two pupils on either end of those beams, evoking a Looney feel to it, heheh...

interesting pointers, LordM. these classifications present a rather gray notion at the moment of conception though.
btw, glory to Captain Glory! :)

Interchangable arms!
Optic blasts!
Hyper-poseability!

Those are very much SUPER Skrulls!
and i dig the dio pieces in the backdrop.


One hundred plus customs and still going... Great job Lord Mudd!

As I said, it was Customs, which is the government, and they are not exactly known for being clear. The industry latched onto it because it gave them a way to distinguish between boytoys and girltoys.

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

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.

AHEM..............ACTION FIGURE PLAYSETS . ;) heh heh *couldn't resist.*

Oh yeah, really could see that one...

The STAR WARS DEATH STAR DOLL HOUSE!

I actually like those colors a lot more.

Creator, during the summer i mentioned how you are an MU Master Mechanic Customizer.

With the results you 'create' and your recipe descriptions, my reactions still and quite literally remain...

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.

not quite so plain and simple as i know some of gals that play with action figures. :)

Wait, my Easy Bake oven was the only one that did that?

wrong again.

LOL whats up guys?
