Action Figures
Action Figures have always caught the imagination of the people of just about any groups. The concept of these figures came into being around the 1960s because at that time small boys had not many toys to play with. The dolls during that period were designed specifically for girls.
The first action toy that came into existence was G.I Joe in the year 1964 which was the brainchild of Hasbro. This toy was military themed and came with an array of uniforms for the toy that could be changed based on the needs. This added to the popularity of these toys and garnered the attention of people from all parts of the world.
