It’s not a doll, it’s an action figure.
Big difference between the two. Dolls are carried around and snuggled with. Swaddled. They pretty much lead a pampered and boring dusty life.
Not action figures, such as Manhattan Toy’s Boysterous Action Figure.
(Note: “Matthew” is really a snowboarder . . . but the boys were sharing the action figure sports equipment.)
“Matthew’s” skateboard is magnetic.
Here is “Charlie.”
However, “Charlie” received new gear. Because . . . well . . . we kind of encourage our boys to be dangerous. (Thanks to this book.)
So we had to do some gear improvising and I created a snowboard for Charlie.
I personally think that Charlie will be a little cold; however, I have known people to ski in shorts on a clear, April, Colorado day.
Once Ezra’s action figure was like Asher’s . . . the world was a happy place filled with danger and stunts.
And more stunts . . .
And more jumps . . .
With the grand finale of jumps . . .
The four great things about this toy:
- It has its own carrying case that can also be the playing field that can be purchased separately ($30 . . . gulp). (Great if you purchase all 5 action figures {$18 each} …. which has been hinted at around this house.)
- The toys are open-ended . . . which encourages creative play . . . and trust me my boys were creative!
- Serves as a great tool to try “dangerous” stunts out while being relatively safe. Relatively.
- Even dad approved of this particular soft toy that is reminiscent of some toys his daughter has that collect dust, are swaddled, and filled with stuffing.
