In 1976, Kenner made a deal with an unknown filmmaker to make dolls based on his upcoming movie. The movie was a hit and dolls for boys (called ‘action figures’ by Hasbro in the 60s with their ‘GI Joe’ line of dolls for boys’) became a staple of boys toys from then til now, a time period of 40 years.

So apparently this woman hasn’t spent anytime around American men or boys in the last 40 years if she thinks there aren’t enough “dolls for boys”.

I assume you are referring to “Star Wars”? :-)

The BEST toy line EVER!
