Entry: How to Purchase and Action Figure - A3546821
Author: Amazing - U1260732

This is mostly from my own experiences with buying action figures. I do it a lot... so yeah. I wanted to put it here in the writing workshop first before I submitted it for review in case I made any mistakes or something doesn't make sense. Thanks.

Hi Amazing

In my opinion, your Entry has the potential to become an Edited Entry, via the usaul Peer Review process.

A few points. You've missed out Action Man, isn't he a well known action figure.?

Not sure about your use of the word 'figurine', in a few places, the dictionary definition is 'A small molded or sculptured figure; a statuette'

Not sure about your use of peoples names in a couple of places, there maybe copyright issues involving names - copyright issues are complex, i don't have the experience to be sure, if they are ok or not, and also the naming of toy makers, there may be advertising issues there, again, out of my experience.

I think this is near enough to finished, to remove, and Submit to Peer Review, you'll more likely to get the answers I can't give you there.

Good Luck Amazing

another thing you need to do is re read the entry and find the mistakes in information that you made. For example about McFarlane action figures, you said they are known for being articulate, but in actuality they are know for not being very articulate at all, i know this because i am a collector of said company's toys. Most of theirs only have about 1 or 2 parts that you can pose but besides that it has a pretty much default pose. You should defenitely look in to other toy companies like Mezco since they were like the first superhero toy creater. I am very suprised that you didn't mention the like largest toy franchise aside from GI Joe, that being star wars.
