Action Figures

An action figure is a posable plastic figurine of a character, often from a movie, video game, or television program. These action figures usually are marketed towards boys. Redressable action figures are sometimes referred to as action dolls as a distinction from those which have all or most of their clothes molded on.

Action figures are useful in making stop motion movies which are gaining popularity among children due to the availability of easy to use computer software for making animated movies.
