| History |
The term "action figure" was first used
by Hasbro in 1964, to market their G.I. Joe figure to boys who wouldn't
play with dolls. G.I. Joe was initially a military-themed 11.5-inch
action figure proposed by marketing and toy idea-man Stan Weston.
The action figure featured changeable clothes with various uniforms
to suit different purposes. |
