No offense, if you don't like 12" toys that's cool, but don't pretend they are any different than 6" or 4" toys just because they are different materials. Action figures are becoming more like those "dolls" you find so funny all the time. Soft goods, rubber sweaters and web gear, increased articulation, realistic sculpting; these are all things that have come from 12" "dolls".
Action figure is defined as a doll, usually made from plastic, that depicts a character from an action adventure setting.
Doll is defined as a human shaped toy for children.
